Progressive severe lung injury by zinc oxide nanoparticles; the role of Zn(2+ )dissolution inside lysosomes

BACKGROUND: Large production volumes of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONP) might be anticipated to pose risks, of accidental inhalation in occupational and even in consumer settings. Herein, we further investigated the pathological changes induced by ZnONP and their possible mechanism of action. METHO...
