The nasal epithelium is an important target site for chemically-induced toxicity and carcinogenicity. Human epidemiological investigations and experimental laboratory animal studies show that the nasal olfactory epithelium is selectively damaged by inhalation exposure to several chemicals, includin...
ORGANISM(S): Rattus norvegicus 
Background: In asthma, airway epithelium remodeling can already be detected during childhood, and epithelial cells are more susceptible to virus and oxidative stress. Their exact role in natural history and severity of children allergic respiratory disease remains however surprisingly unexplored. A...

mRNA expression was assayed from bronchial epithelial cells collected via bronchoscopy and nasal epithelial cells collected by brushing the inferior turbinate from healthy current and never smoker volunteers in order to determine the relationship between smoking-related gene expression changes in b...

This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE19182: Gene expression profiling of differentiated HNECs stimulated by IL4, IL13, IFNalpha, IFNbeta, IFNgamma and controls GSE19187: Nasal epithelium gene expression profiling in child respiratory allergic disease Refer to individual Se...

Formaldehyde, an important industrial chemical, is used for multiple commercial purposes throughout the industrialized world. This simple, one carbon aldehyde is a natural metabolite formed in cells throughput the body. However, it is also a rodent nasal carcinogen, when inhaled by rats every day ...

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a naturally occurring gas that is also associated with several industries. The potential for widespread human inhalation exposure to this toxic gas is recognized as a public health concern. The nasal epithelium is particularly susceptible to H2S-induced pathology. Injury...

In addition to gaining knowledge on in vivo miRNA responses to formaldehyde, we set out to relate these miRNA responses to transcriptional profiles modified by formaldehyde. Rats were exposed by inhalation to either 0 or 2 ppm formaldehyde (6 hours/day) for 28 days. Genome-wide transcriptional profi...

In vitro toxicology approaches have evolved, from a focus on the molecular changes within a cell to understanding of toxicity-related mechanisms that simulate the in vivo environment. The recent development of three dimensional (3-D) organotypic nasal epithelial culture models offer a physiologicall...

Although smoking cessation shows clear cardiovascular risk benefits, lung-related disease risk remains higher in former smokers than in never smokers. To better understand the factors involved in this phenomenon, ApoE-/- mice were exposed to mainstream cigarette smoke (CS) or a smoking cessation-mim...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer death, although only a small percentage of smokers develop the disease. Cigarette smoke exposure is known to cause a field of injury in cells throughout the respiratory tract, and while these airway epithelial cells are morphologically normal, they can und...
