Expression profiling of miRNAs in chrysotile-exposed lung epithelial cells

环境与职业医学
BackgroundChrysotile is widely used in construction and industry. Research has shown that it is associated with lung fibrosis in occupational groups, but the involvement of microRNAs (miRNAs) in chrysotile-induced lung fibrosis has been less well studied,

Chrysotile within calcite veins from Northern Apennines [PDF]

, 2014
In the Northern Apennines several olistoliths made up of serpentinites, calpionelle limestones and ophiolitic breccias have been recognized within the Porcellara Complex, Monte Cassio Unit. These olistoliths are frequently crossed by a dense network of

Occupational Exposure to Chrysotile Asbestos in the Chrysotile Asbestos Cement Manufacturing Industry in Zimbabwe

, 2023
Introduction: Asbestos is a generic term for a group of naturally occurring silicates that principally include serpentine variety (white chrysotile asbestos) and the amphibole variety, consisting of crocidolite (blue asbestos), amosite (brown asbestos ...

Phyllosilicate Infrared Spectral Features as Tracers of Aqueous Alteration in CM Chondrites and Implications for Remote Sensing of Hydrated Asteroids

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract CM (Mighei‐type) carbonaceous chondrites host abundant OH/H2O‐bearing phyllosilicates formed from water‐rock reactions in primitive planetesimals. Their infrared (IR) spectral features resemble those of C‐type asteroids, making laboratory analyses of CMs essential for interpreting asteroid observations.

Updates on exposure estimation for the Québec cohort of chrysotile miners and millers: implications for risk assessment and threshold hypothesis

Frontiers in Public Health
The McGill University cohort of Québec chrysotile miners and millers (total of 11,379 members) has been a major determinant of risk assessment. The U. S.

Multi-Analytical Approach for Identifying Asbestos Minerals In Situ

Geosciences, 2018
An innovative and, as yet, untested approach is to analyze serpentinite and metabasite rocks containing asbestos using a portable multi-analytical device, which combines portable digital microscopy (p-DM), portable X-ray Fluorescence (p-XRF) and portable

Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Study of Serpentine Minerals and Assignment of the OH Group

Crystals, 2021
Three different kinds of serpentine mineral samples were investigated using Fourier transform near-infrared spectroscopy (FTNIR). The results show that there are obvious differences in the characteristic infrared spectra of the three serpentine group ...

Electrical Conductivity During Controlled Deformation at Upper‐Mantle Conditions: First Experimental Achievements in a Griggs‐Type Apparatus

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Electrical conductivity measurements on well‐characterized materials in the laboratory allow accurate interpretations of high‐conductivity anomalies within the lithosphere and asthenosphere, both affected by substantial deformation over geological times.
