Dynamic assessing silica particle-induced pulmonary fibrosis and associated regulation of long non-coding RNA expression in Wistar rats

Abstract Background Exposure to respirable crystalline silica (RCS) can induce accelerated silicosis (AS), a form of silicosis that is more progressive and severe form of silicosis. In this project we aimed to assess processes of silicosis in rats exposed to RCS with focus on the regulation of long...
