Functional consequences for primary human alveolar macrophages following treatment with long, but not short, multiwalled carbon nanotubes
PURPOSE: Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are a potential human health hazard, primarily via inhalation. In the lung, alveolar macrophages (AMs) provide the first line of immune cellular defense against inhaled materials. We hypothesized that, 1 and 5 days after treating AMs with short (0.6 μm...
