LE Murr, KF Soto - Journal of materials science, 2004 - search.proquest.com

Fibrous materials, both natural and synthetic, have been an important part of global technologies for decades. Many of these materials in their elemental forms are nanomaterials with unusual properties, especially crystalline whiskers and fibers used to make an array...

Solid waste has been an inevitable by-product of the operations of industrialised societies. One result of economic growth is an increase in generation of solid waste which normally was dumped in landfills and caused contamination of soil, water and...

Chondrosarcoma of the Rib Mimicking Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma.

Case reports in oncology

Furukawa M, Tao H, Tanaka T, Onoda H, Murakami T, Okabe K.
PMID: 26933413
Case Rep Oncol. 2016 Jan 08;9(1):11-4. doi: 10.1159/000443327. eCollection 2016.

A 62-year-old man with a history of long-term asbestos exposure was found to have a chest wall tumor invading the sixth rib on chest computed tomography. The computed tomography also revealed multiple plaques in the pleura. Malignant pleural mesothelioma...

Biphasic Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma Masquerading as a Primary Skeletal Tumor.

Case reports in pulmonology

Gleason JB, Tashtoush B, Diacovo MJ.
PMID: 27660729
Case Rep Pulmonol. 2016;2016:7560929. doi: 10.1155/2016/7560929. Epub 2016 Aug 31.

Biphasic malignant pleural mesothelioma is a rare malignant tumor, usually presenting as a pleural-based mass in a patient with history of chronic asbestos exposure. We herein report a case of a 41-year-old man who presented with chest pain and...

Lung Biopersistence and in Vitro Dissolution Rate Predict the Pathogenic Potential of Synthetic Vitreous Fibers.

Inhalation toxicology

Hesterberg TW, Hart GA.
PMID: 26368604
Inhal Toxicol. 2000 Jan;12:91-7. doi: 10.1080/08958378.2000.11463234.

Here we review the past decade of research on inorganic fiber toxicology, which demonstrates that fiber biopersistence and in vitro dissolution rate correlate well with fiber pathogenicity. Test fibers for these studies included eight synthetic vitreous fibers (SVFs)-refractory ceramic...

A Comparison of Pleural Mesotheliomas Induced by Asbestos or SV40 Virus in Syrian Golden Hamsters.

Inhalation toxicology

McConnell EE, Carbone M.
PMID: 26368614
Inhal Toxicol. 2000 Jan;12:173-81. doi: 10.1080/08958378.2000.11463211.

Pleural mesotheliomas are a well-known consequence of exposure to asbestos in both humans and animals. However, there are cases of mesothelioma in humans for which there is little or no known exposure to asbestos. Mesotheliomas have also been produced...

Role of Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases, Early Response Protooncogenes, and Activator Protein-1 in Cell Signaling by Asbestos.

Inhalation toxicology

Mossman B, Hubbard A, Shukla A, Timblin CR.
PMID: 26368630
Inhal Toxicol. 2000 Jan;12:307-16. doi: 10.1080/08958378.2000.11463240.

Cell signaling by pathogenic minerals may initiate the transactivation of genes that are critical to carcinogenesis and fibroproliferative diseases of the lung and pleura. We have shown previously that stimulation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade by asbestos...

Cell Signaling in Mesothelial Cells by Asbestos: Evidence for the Involvement of Oxidative Stress in the Regulation of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor.

Inhalation toxicology

Faux SP, Houghton CE.
PMID: 26368632
Inhal Toxicol. 2000 Jan;12:327-36. doi: 10.1080/08958378.2000.11463242.

Asbestos has been shown to stimulate the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling cascade after autophosphoryiation of the epidermal growth factor recptor (EGF-R), an event important in regulating the response of cells to extracellular signals. In studies reported here, we have...

Erionite-Na upon heating: dehydration dynamics and exchangeable cations mobility.

Scientific reports

Ballirano P, Pacella A.
PMID: 26948139
Sci Rep. 2016 Mar 07;6:22786. doi: 10.1038/srep22786.

Erionite is a fibrous zeolite significantly more tumorigenic than crocidolite asbestos upon inhalation. In recent years, several papers have been published aimed at characterizing from the crystal-chemical point of view erionite fibres. As their toxicity has been ascribed to...
