Gene Expression Profiles in mouse lungs following 7 days post oropharyngeal aspiration exposure to different asbestos and asbestiform fibers.


ABSTRACT: Asbestos is the general term for a family of naturally occurring fibrous silicate minerals having commercial importance. They have been used widely for construction and for a number of industrial applications until early 70’s. It is now well known that workers exposed to asbestos are at high risk of developing many lung diseases including asbestosis, malignant mesothelioma, bronchial adenocarcinoma; squamous cell carcinoma of the respiratory epithelium and large/ small cell lung carcinoma. However, the disease causing potential and related processes associated with various asbestos/asbestiform fiber exposures are still largely unknown. In this study, we exposed C57BL6 female mice to asbestos (crocidolite, tremolite), asbestiform fibers (erionite) and a low pathogenicity mineral fiber (wollastonite) to assess pulmonary toxicity responses along with gene expression profiles in the lungs following 7 days post pharyngeal aspiration.
