Vanadium pentoxide induces pulmonary inflammation and tumor promotion in a strain-dependent manner

BACKGROUND: Elevated levels of air pollution are associated with increased risk of lung cancer. Particulate matter (PM) contains transition metals that may potentiate neoplastic development through the induction of oxidative stress and inflammation, a lung cancer risk factor. Vanadium pentoxide (V(2...
