Cigarette smoke is known to be a complex mixture of >4000 constituents dispersed between the volatile and non-volatile phase, and inhaled exposure causes lung inflammation and cell injury. Here we investigate the effects of some of components of ciga... Read More about Apoptosis induced by Paclitaxel, tobacco smoke condensate and hydrogen peroxide in lung epithelial cells (A549).

C-reactive protein (CRP) is the prototypic human acute-phase protein and is found at increased levels in the blood during episodes of inflammation. CRP was generally thought to be produced only by hepatocytes; however, several studies have shown extr...

Expression of C-Reactive Protein and Heat-Shock Protein-70 in the Lung Epithelial Cell Line A549, in Response to PM10 Exposure (2004)
Journal Article
Ramage, L., & Guy, K. (2004). Expression of C-Reactive Protein and Heat-Shock Protein-70 in the Lung Epithelial Cell Line A549, in Response to PM10 Exposure. Inhalation Toxicology, 16(6-7), 447-452. https://doi.org/10.1080/08958370490439614

Increased levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and heat-shock protein-70 (Hsp70) in plasma are known to be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. In this study we have investigated the effects of environmental air pollution partic...
