Crystalline silica-induced leukotrieneB(4)-dependent inflammation promotes lung tumor growth

Chronic exposure to crystalline silica (CS) causes silicosis, an irreversible lung inflammatory disease that may eventually lead to lung cancer. In this study, we demonstrate that in K-ras(LA1) mice, CS exposure markedly enhances the lung tumor burden and genetic deletion of leukotriene B(4) recepto...
