Mast cells and the IL-33/ST2 axis are essential determinants of carbon nanotube toxicity
(East Carolina University, 2012)
The rise of nanomaterial use in a variety of applications, including biomedical imaging and drug delivery, has led to concern about the potentially hazardous impacts on human health. Mast cells are critical for innate and ...
Perfluorooctanoic acid-induced developmental cardiotoxicity in an avian model
(East Carolina University, 2013)
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is a synthetic chemical used in polyfluormer production. It is a widespread environmental contaminant and is known to induce developmental toxicity in rodent models. As several related compounds ...
The immune and neurological impacts of developmental Bisphenol A exposure in a C57bl/6 mouse model
(East Carolina University, 2014)
Environmental exposure to exogenous agents during critical time points of development may be associated with the onset of deleterious effects, including immune and neurological disorders. Numerous studies have shown that ...
