Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Hexavalent chromium has been extensively investigated regarding its mutagenicity and carcinogenicity; however, its mechanism for initiating and enhancing the development of lung cancer is still obscure. Biomarkers of exposure, effect or susceptibility are required for risk assessment and for epidemiologic research studies especially in occupational settings. Since the surfactant protein system (SP) is...
