  • 6PPD-Q exposure increases host susceptibility to viral pneumonia.
  • The study links 6PPD-Q to NF-κB-mediated hyperinflammation in macrophages.
  • Mice exposed to 6PPD-Q showed higher mortality and severe pulmonary pathology during viral infections.
  • Macrophage depletion reversed the adverse effects of 6PPD-Q exposure.
  • Findings highlight the importance of environmental health management in preventing respiratory diseases.
