Studies using lectins to determine mineral interactions with cellular membranes.

Chrysotile asbestos interacts with mucin-secreting cells of tracheal organ cultures, causing an increase in secretion of mucin into the culture medium. This response occurs in the absence of obvious morphologic damage to tracheal epithelial cells. We speculated that asbestos-induced hypersecretion w...
