TRAIL (CD253) Sensitizes Human Airway Epithelial Cells to Toxin-Induced Cell Death
2018-05-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Inhalation of ricin toxin is associated with the onset of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), characterized by hemorrhage, inflammatory exudates, and tissue edema, as well as the near complete destruction of the lung epithelium. Here we report that the Calu-3 human airway epithelial cell line is relatively impervious to the effects of ricin, with little evidence of cell death even upon e...
