Upregulation of the PDGF-alpha receptor precedes asbestos-induced lung fibrosis in rats.

Platelet-derived growth factor-AA (PDGF-AA) and its matching alpha receptor (PDGF-R alpha) are upregulated in rat lung fibroblasts (RLFs) after exposure to chrysotile asbestos fibers in vitro, which results in asbestos-induced RLF proliferation. We now report our in vivo observations, which show an increase in the expression of PDGF-R alpha mRNA, but not PDGF-beta receptor mRNA, in asbestos-exp...

Cytotoxicity and multinucleate giant cell formation in Chinese hamster lung fibroblast caused by crocidolite and chrysotile.

The mechanism of carcinogenic action of asbestos remains unclear but the physical properties of the fiber appear to be important in this process. Asbestos may cause multinucleate giant cell formation primarily by interfering with the normal course of mitosis. We evaluated the cytotoxicity and multinucleate giant cell formation induced by crocidolite and chrysotile in Chinese hamster lung fibrob...

The c-Jun N-terminal kinase signaling pathway mediates chrysotile asbestos-induced alveolar epithelial cell apoptosis

Exposure to chrysotile asbestos exposure is associated with an increased risk of mortality in combination with pulmonary diseases including lung cancer, mesothelioma and asbestosis. Multiple mechanisms by which chrysotile asbestos fibers induce pulmonary disease have been identified, however the role of apoptosis in human lung alveolar epithelial cells (AEC) has not yet been fully explored. Acc...

Angiotensin II is mitogenic for human lung fibroblasts via activation of the type 1 receptor.

The expression of renin-angiotensin system components and the elevation of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) in a number of fibrotic lung diseases suggests angiotensin II (AII) could play a role in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis. However, the effect of AII on lung fibroblasts has not previously been assessed and the mechanisms by which AII induces cell proliferation in mesenchymal cel...
