Role of Nrf2 in inflammatory response in lung of mice exposed to zinc oxide nanoparticles

Role of Nrf2 in inflammatory response in lung of mice exposed to zinc oxide nanoparticles

Abstract Background Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) are widely used in many industrial sectors and previous studies have reported that exposure of the lungs to ZnO-NPs induces both acute and/or chronic pulmonary inflammation, but the exact mechanism underlying such response remains elusive. This...
