Apoptosis induced by Paclitaxel, tobacco smoke condensate and hydrogen peroxide in lung epithelial cells (A549) (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ramage, L., Jones, A., & Whelan, C. Apoptosis induced by Paclitaxel, tobacco smoke condensate and hydrogen peroxide in lung epithelial cells (A549)

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).
