Exposure to AT by way of aerosol is the most lethal route, but the mechanism of injury requires further investigation.<h4>Materials and methods</h4>In the present study, we performed a comprehensive analysis of transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics on the potential mechanism of abrin injury in human lung epithelial cells.<h4>Results</h4>In total, 6838 genes, 314 proteins and 178 metabolites showed significant changes in human lung epithelial cells after AT treatment. Using molecular function, pathway, and network analysis, the genes and proteins regulated in AT-treated cells were mainly attributed to amino acid metabolism, lipid metabolism, and genetic information processing. Furthermore, a comprehensive analysis of the transcripts, proteins, and metabolites was performed. The results revealed that the correlated genes, proteins, and metabolism pathways regulated in AT-treated human lung epithelial cells were involved in tryptophan metabolism, biosynthesis of amino acids, and protein digestion and absorption.<h4>Conclusion</h4>This study provides large-scale omics data to develop new strategies for the prevention, rapid diagnosis, and treatment of AT poisoning, especially AT from aerosol.Integration of transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics data to reveal the biological mechanisms of abrin injury in human lung epithelial cells.Zhu Wenhe W, Yu Haotian H, Wang Yan Y, Chang Ying Y, Wan Jiayu J, Xu Na N, Wang Jinglin J, Liu Wensen WfalseIntegration of transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics data to reveal the biological mechanisms of abrin injury in human lung epithelial cellswe performed a comprehensive analysis of transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics on the potential mechanism of abrin injury in human lung epithelial cells.Fri Jan 18 00:00:00 GMT 2019PXD012435960631054353
