Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Asbestos exposure is associated with asbestos-related diseases such as pleural plaques, asbestosis, lung cancer, malignant mesothelioma (MM), as well as several other types of cancer. Although the exact mechanism underlying the development of asbestos-related diseases is not yet fully understood, the immune system may play an important role. Immune checkpoints such as programmed cell death receptor 1...
