The Induction of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor by Ultrafine Carbon Black Contributes to the Increase of Alveolar-Capillary Permeability

Ultrafine carbon black (ufCB) can cause proinflammatory response and increase alveolar-capillary permeability. However, the mechanism underlying the increased permeability is not well characterized. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is originally recognized as a vascular permeability factor....
