    Formation of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine by asbestos and man made mineral fibres

    …were compared with chrysotile fibres for their capacity to hydroxylate 2-deoxyguanosine to 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine, a reaction that is mediated by formation of hydroxyl radicals. All three fibres produced 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine in the absence of H2O2…

    The association of phagocytosed asbestos dust with lysosome enzymes

    …staining combined with electron microscopy. It was found that the acid phosphatase reaction was confined to the lysosome series of organelles, but that not all of these structures gave a positive reaction. In dust-containing macrophages…

    Exposure to silicates and systemic autoimmune-related outcomes in rodents: a systematic review

    …Chrysotile did not induce ANA, and erionite fibers did induce ANA. Crystalline silica produced a lupus-like reaction in autoimmune-prone mouse strains, but the evidence in healthy strains was less convincing. The authors rated 19…
