This article reviews the experimental data that points to formation of reactive oxygen species
(ROS) and oxidative DNA base damage as being important contributors to cancer …

The purpose of this paper is to overview and summarize previously published results of our
experiments on white rats exposed to either a single intratracheal instillation or repeated …

Stable suspensions of nanogold (NG) and nanosilver (NS) with mean particle diameter 50
and 49 nm, respectively, were prepared by laser ablation of metals in water. To assess rat's …

Rats were exposed to nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO-NP) inhalation at 0.23±0.01 mg/m3
for 4 ha day 5 times a week for up to 10 months. The rat organism responded to this impact …

Пневмокониозы, т. е. заболевания, наиболее характерной чертой которых является
развитие пневмосклероза на почве длительного накопления в легких различных …

The aim of our study was to test a hypothesis according to which the pulmonary clearance
vs. retention of metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) is controlled not only by physiological …

We studied purposefully produced silver, gold, iron oxide, copper oxide, nickel oxide,
manganese oxide, lead oxide, and zinc oxide nanoparticles using two experimental …

We studied differences between phagocytic responses to nanoparticles (NPs) versus
microparticles in the pulmonary region by synthesizing magnetite of different sizes and …

The kinetics of the bronchoalveolar response was assessed in rats exposed, at equal
airborne mass concentration (10 mg/m3), to titanium dioxide--a non-pathogenic dust--and …

The internal surfaces of the respiratory tract comprise an extensive interface which is
directly, and continually, exposed to the external environment via inhaled air. Along with …
