Association of expression of GADD family genes and apoptosis in human kidney proximal tubular (HK-2) cells exposed to nephrotoxic drugs
Nephrotoxicity is often referred to as a side effect of most drugs, but methods for effectively detecting nephrotoxicants still require development.

A study of cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of particulate matter (PM2.5) in human lung epithelial cells (A549)
Exposure to airborne particulate matter (PM2.5), a PM with an aerodynamic diameter of less than 2.5 μm, is known to be associated with a variety of adverse health effects, particularly related to the respiratory ...

Expression of exosomal and cellular microRNAs: as biomarkers for toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene (TEX) exposure
Exosomes, small vesicles released by many cells, are associated with various biological processes and they can potentially be used for prognosis and therapy and as biomarkers of health. Thus, they are gaining ...

Analysis of gene expression changes in relation to hepatotoxicity induced by perfluorinated chemicals in a human hepatoma cell line
Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) represent a rising class of persistent organic pollutants termed perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs). In this study, hepatotoxic effects of PFCs w...

Hexanal-induced changes in miRNA-mRNA interactions in A549 human alveolar epithelial cells
Although hexanal is considered to be a major air pollutant the correlation between hexanal and health risk is largely unknown. Identifying aldehyde toxicity in eukaryotic cells will be useful for preventing an...

Gene expression profiling of human alveolar epithelial cells (A549 cells) exposed to atmospheric particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) collected from Seoul, Korea
Many epidemiological and in vitro studies have shown that particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) is associated with adverse health effects in humans, especially respiratory morbidity and mortality1–3. While the mechanism...
