A novel class of carbon nanotube (CNT)-based nanomaterials has been surging since 1991
due to their noticeable mechanical and electrical properties, as well as their good electron …

Objective We reviewed studies on pulmonary, reproductive, and developmental toxicity
caused by carbon nanotubes (CNTs). In paricular, we analyzed how CNT exposure affects …

Bleomycin (BLM) is a drug used to treat different types of neoplasms. BLM's most severe
adverse effect is lung toxicity, which induces remodeling of lung architecture and loss of …

Fibrosis and structural remodeling of the lung tissue can significantly impair lung function,
often with fatal consequences. The etiology of pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is diverse and …

Abstract Background: Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive inflammatory
disorder driven by a fibrotic cascade of events such as epithelial to mesenchymal transition …

Nanosheets of transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDs), the graphene-like two-dimensional
(2D) materials, exhibit a unique combination of properties and have attracted enormous …

IPF is characterized by fibroblast accumulation, collagen deposition, and ECM remodeling,
with myofibroblasts believed to be the effector cell type. Myofibroblasts develop due to EMT …

Asbestos (Greek, inextinguishable) is the term of a family of naturally occurring minerals that
have been used in small scale since ancient times. Industrialization demanded increased …

In nanomedicine design, emphasis is centered on the engineered impacts of the
nanomaterials (NMs). However, failure to understand the unintended effects of …

Myocardial infarction (cardiac tissue death) is among the most prevalent causes of death
among the cardiac patients due to the inability of self-repair in cardiac tissues. Myocardial …
