Abstract
- Exposure to amorphous silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) has increased dramatically, and concerns are growing about their potential health effects. However, their long-term systemic toxicity profile and underlying mechanisms following respiratory exposure still remains unexplored. It is well documented that the inhalation of ultrafine particles is firmly associated with adverse effects in humans. Environmental pollutants may contribute to diverse adverse effect or comorbidity in susceptible individuals. Thereby, we examined the long-term systemic effects of inhaled SiNPs using a sensitive mouse model (ApoE
