Title: Expression profiling of human epidermal keratinocyte response following 1-minute JP-8 exposure. Author: Chou CC, Yang JH, Chen SD, Monteiro-Riviere NA, Li HN, Chen JJ. Journal: Cutan Ocul Toxicol; 2006; 25(2):141-53. PubMed ID: 16835149. Abstract: The cDNA microarray analysis of 9600 expressed sequence tags was performed to examine the gene expression changes in human epidermal keratinocytes after 1-minute JP-8 exposure; 151 genes were identified as JP-8 responsive and classified into 8 clusters by self organization map. Genes involved in basal transcription and translations were up-regulated, whereas genes related to DNA repair, metabolism, and keratin were mostly down-regulated. Genes encoded for growth factors, apoptosis, signal transduction, and adhesion were also altered. These results indicated that human keratinocyte responds to a single dose of JP-8 insult and revealed several cellular processes previously not associated with jet fuel exposure.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
