Efflux of reduced glutathione after exposure of human lung epithelial cells to crocidolite asbestos
…in the same level of intracellular GSH depletion and efflux and the same decrease in gamma-GCS activity as treatment with unmodified crocidolite, which suggests that iron-catalyzed reactions were not responsible for the GSH depletion.

Mobilization of iron from urban particulates leads to generation of reactive oxygen species in vitro and induction of ferritin synthesis in human lung epithelial cells
…Urban air particulates also contain iron, and some of the pathological effects after inhalation may be due to reactive oxygen species produced by iron-catalyzed reactions. Two standard reference material (SRM) urban air particulate samples were…
