Single-walled carbon nanotubes induce fibrogenic response by promoting fibroblast-to-myofibroblast transition: An in vitro molecular toxicity pathway based risk assessment
Several reports have shown that single-walled carbon nano tubes (SWCNT) caused lung fibrosis in rodents. The molecular mechanisms that govern SWCNT lung toxicity remain largely unaddressed. Our results indicate that SWCNTs induced ROS and mitochondrial [...]
