Evaluation of soluble mesothelin-related peptides and MSLN genetic variability in asbestos-related diseases
…154 had MM. Serum SMRP levels were determined using sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. All subjects were genotyped for MSLN rs1057147 polymorphism using competitive allele-specific polymerase chain reaction. Nonparametric tests, logistic and Cox regression were…

The association of genetic factors with serum calretinin levels in asbestos-related diseases
…genotyped for seven polymorphisms in CALB2, E2F2, MIR335, NRF1 and SEPTIN7 genes using competitive allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Serum calretinin was determined with ELISA in 545 subjects. Nonparametric tests, logistic regression and receiver operating…

Experimental asbestosis: an investigation of functional and pathological disturbances. II. Results for chrysotile and amosite exposures
…not until about 70 weeks for animals exposed when three months old. No fibrotic reaction was seen during the 70 weeks of the amosite experiments. The relationships between pathological and functional changes throughout these experiments are…

Railroad workers with pleural plaques: II. Small airway dysfunction among asbestos-exposed workers
…groups the VTG:TLC ratio was elevated compared with controls. Increased VTG is a sign of small airways dysfunction. In asbestos-exposed subjects, it might be caused by an early peribronchial reaction to inhaled asbestos fibers.

Association of transforming growth factor beta1 gene polymorphisms and asbestos-induced fibrosis and tumors
…Therefore, we examined an association between the 2 TGF-beta1 gene polymorphisms and asbestos-induced lung fibrosis and lung cancer. Detection of the 2 polymorphisms was performed by rapid capillary polymerase chain reaction, with melting curve…

Diminished suppressor cell function in patients with asbestosis
…patients. Skin reaction to dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) was not depressed, although lymphocytes of patients giving positive skin test reactions demonstrated a significantly lower (P less than 0.001) proliferative response to dinitrobenzene sulphonic acid (DNBSO3) in vitro…

Correlation between the tissue response and asbestos fiber content
…and here secondary factors may be concerned. Electron microscopy suggests that optically visible fibers constitute a reasonably constant proportion of the total irrespective of the pathological reaction. Light microscopy may thus afford a guide to the…

Oxalate deposition on asbestos bodies
…vitro generated approximately 42 nmol of oxalate in 24 hours. Oxalate generation was diminished significantly by the inclusion of either deferoxamine or dimethylthiourea in the reaction mixture. Incubation of asbestos bodies and uncoated fibers isolated from…

Ventilatory failure due to asbestos pleurisy
…because of extension of the pleural fibrosis into the lung. Two of these patients had pleural uptake of 67-gallium citrate attributable to the inflammatory reaction. With the increasing duration since onset of exposure in the…

Abadie v. Metropolitan Life Ins. Co. (2001)
…asbestos fibers, once inhaled, remain in place in the lung, causing a tissue reaction that is slowly progressive and apparently irreversible. Even if no additional fibers are inhaled, tissue damage may continue undetected for decades. Furthermore…

Additional proteins in BAL fluid of Metsovites environmentally exposed to asbestos: more evidence of "protection" against neoplasia?
…The two proteins were present in all Metsovites with PCs but in none without PCs and also in none of the control groups. This study further separates two groups of Metsovites with different reaction to asbestos…

Contributions of experimental asbestosis in sheep to the understanding of asbestosis
…to 5 years. The authors described four tissue reactions to asbestos: no-retention, low-retention, high-retention and intermediate. They suggested that the intermediate reaction might explain non-progressive cases of minimal asbestosis. Exposure dose and…

Biphasic lung diffusing capacity: detection of early asbestos induced changes in lung function
