Effect of Two Particle Surface-Modifying Agents, Polyvinylpyridine-N-Oxide and Carboxymethylcellulose, on the Quartz and Asbestos Mineral Fiber-Induced Production of Reactive Oxygen Metabolites by Human Polymorphonuclear Leukocytes
Abstract
We studied the capacity of quartz and asbestos fibers to induce the generation of reactive oxygen metabolites in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) with a chemiluminescence (CL) assay. On an equal weight basis, the particulates induced CL in the following order of magnitude: chrysotile, quartz greater than amosite, crocidolite, greater than anthophyllite, wollastonite. The intensity of CL correlated positively with the Alcian blue (a cationic dye) binding capacity of the particles. Polyvinylpyridine-N-oxide (0.5 microgram/ml) inhibited completely the CL induced by quartz but had little effect on the CL induced by asbestos fibers. Carboxymethylcellulose (1.0 microgram/ml), however, reduced the CL caused by chrysotile asbestos but had no effect on the CL induced by the other particulates. Our results suggest that in addition to length and diameter, the effect of quartz and asbestos fibers on inflammatory cells will depend on surface characteristics, including the charge of the particles.

“But most importantly, these investigations have included the elucidation of the role of iron in these processes [335, 336] and also the importance of surface properties in the toxicity of particles and fibres with subsequent reduction of this toxicity through surface modification [321, 337].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
