One interesting study is called, Expression and Activity of Urokinase and Its Receptor in Endothelial and Pulmonary Epithelial Cells Exposed to Asbestos by Aaron Barchowsky, Robert R. Roussel, Ronald J. Krieser, Brooke T. Mossman and Melinda D. Treadwell - Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology - Volume 152, Issue 2, October 1998, Pages 388-396. Here is an excerpt: Abstract - An elongated endothelial cell phenotype, which demonstrated increased ICAM-1-dependent neutrophil adherence, was induced when these cells were exposed to noncytotoxic concentrations of asbestos (Treadwellet al., Toxicol. Appl. Pharmacol.139, 6270, 1996). The present study examined mechanisms underlying this phenotypic change by investigating the effects of asbestos on transcription factor activation and expression of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and its receptor uPAR.In situzymography was used to compare the effects of these fibers on the activity of uPA. Cultures incubated with chrysotile or crocidolite asbestos, but not refractory ceramic fiber 1 (RCF-1), demonstrate localized cleavage of plasminogen, which was inhibited by amiloride. Immunocytochemistry showed that chrysotile-stimulated uPA...more
