Bioreactivity of a novel poly(epsilon-caprolactone) nanocapsule containing atrazine with human lung alveolar epithelial cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
Nanoencapsulation of pesticide atrazine improves efficacy. However, this study discovered adverse bioreactivity in alveolar type 1 epithelial cells (a major recipient inhaled nano-sized particles), following exposure to nanoencapsulated atrazine.

The Effects of Amiodarone of Rabbit Lung Alveolar Cells
Purpose: The effects of Amiodarone on lung tissue and morphologic changes of alveolar cells. Materials and Methods: in this study, we used 21 mature male rabbits and they were divided into control and two experimental groups. Daily 80 mg/kg amiodarone was injected intra peritoneally to the experimental animals for one or two weeks. The control group received normal saline the same dose as amio...
متن کاملEpithelial-to-mesenchymal transition of human lung alveolar epithelial cells in a microfluidic gradient device.
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process in which epithelial cells undergo phenotypic transitions to fibrotic cells, is induced by stimulants including transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1). In the present study, we developed a microfluidic gradient device to reproduce EMT in A549 human lung alveolar epithelial cells in response to TGF-β1 gradients. The device was directly moun...
متن کاملEffect of thalidomide on the alveolar epithelial cells in the lung fibrosis induced by bleomycin in mice
Introduction: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a relentlessly progressive and usually fatal lung disease of unknown etiology for which no effective treatments currently exist. In the adults type I and II pneumocytes, forms Components of the alveolar epithelial cells. In this study, we investigated the effect of thalidomide on the alveolar epithelial cells (type I and II pneumocytes) in ...
متن کاملA pure population of lung alveolar epithelial type II cells derived from human embryonic stem cells.
Alveolar epithelial type II (ATII) cells are small, cuboidal cells that constitute approximately 60% of the pulmonary alveolar epithelium. These cells are crucial for repair of the injured alveolus by differentiating into alveolar epithelial type I cells. ATII cells derived from human ES (hES) cells are a promising source of cells that could be used therapeutically to treat distal lung diseases...
متن کاملTitle Influenza H5N1 virus infection of polarized human alveolar epithelial cells and lung microvascular endothelial cells
Background: Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 virus is entrenched in poultry in Asia and Africa and continues to infect humans zoonotically causing acute respiratory disease syndrome and death. There is evidence that the virus may sometimes spread beyond respiratory tract to cause disseminated infection. The primary target cell for HPAI H5N1 virus in human lung is the alveolar epith...
