Rat model demonstrates a high risk of tremolite but a low risk of anthophyllite for mesothelial carcinogenesis
…In half of the animals, repeated intraperitoneal injections of nitrilotriacetate (NTA), an iron chelator to promote Fenton reaction, were performed to evaluate the potential involvement of iron overload. Tremolite induced MM with a high incidence (96…
