Fig. 9From: STAT1-dependent and -independent pulmonary allergic and fibrogenic responses in mice after exposure to tangled versus rod-like multi-walled carbon nanotubesSummary illustration depicting differential chronic lung immune and fibrotic responses at 21 days post-exposure to a tangled (t)MWCNTs or b Rod-like (r)MWCNTs. The inset in panel B highlights the postulated role of STAT1 in suppressing TGF-β1 production by epithelial cells and Smad2/3 activation levels in fibroblastsBack to article page
