Heating the chrysotile produced an increase in its biological aggressiveness measured in terms of animal survival rate and fibrogenic activity after intratracheal administration of the dust. The highest death rate (100% of the animals) was noted after administration of chrysotile heated at 600 degrees C. Moreover, increased fibrogenic activity of chrysotile heated at 150 degrees C up to 800 degrees C was found. The biological effect of chrysotile heated at 1200 degrees C did not differ from the effect exerted by unheated chrysotile. After intraperitoneal administration of the dust, the most violent reaction could be observed when chrysotile dust was heated at 600 degrees C, which resulted in symptoms of nervous system impairment (of the hind legs, no reaction to nociceptive stimuli, drop of internal body temperature) and death of the test animals.

It was found that 3 hrs after the last exposure, the cholinesterase (ChE) activity in the blood and brain was close to 50% of the control value in the 0.5 mg/kg group and less than 50% in the 1.0 mg/kg group. In both groups, normalization of ChE activity in plasma took less time than in erythrocytes, and the normalization of ChE activity in erythrocytes proceeded faster than in the majority of the brain areas studied. Electrophysiological investigations revealed a retardation of age-related epileptic-like cortical activity. This effect, however, was present only in the 1.0 mg/kg group, and only in the period of decreased ChE activity in the brain. Spectral analysis revealed an increase in 1-4 Hz activity in the cortical EEG of the 0.5 mg/kg group and heightened theta activity (4-7 and 7-9 Hz bands) in the hippocampal EEG of the 1.0 mg/kg group. The later effects were detected after a time sufficient for full normalization of ChE activity and manifested themselves most clearly in the presence of an acoustic stimulus associated with pain. The above results are in agreement with earlier observations on rabbits exposed repetitively to CVP. Data from both species suggest that, in the case of repetitive exposure to CVP, neither plasma nor erythrocyte ChE activity is a reliable indicator of toxicity, and that such exposure to this OP may lead to changes in EEG outlasting the period of lowered ChE activity in the blood and brain.</p>","PeriodicalId":20359,"journal":{"name":"Polish journal of occupational medicine and environmental health","volume":"4 2","pages":"183-96"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12962487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Macrophages establish a very important population of cells which initiate or suppress specific immune response; they are responsible for effective T-cell activation, express antitumour activity. The process of lung fibrosis generated by the inhalation and deposition of asbestos fibres is also closely related to macrophage activity. An open question which is still to be resolved concerns asbestos-induced fibrosis; it may arise as a consequence of tissue injury and repair or change collagen synthesis. Another question is, to what extent macrophages may be protective cells and when they become undesirable? Since their overstimulation or damage in the case of chronic exposure to asbestos dust may be the reason of the increased release of inflammatory mediators, reactive oxygen intermediates which may in turn cause tissue injury, fibrosis or, in final effect, cancer. If so, we could then say that lung response (expressed by e.g. alveolar macrophage activity) to chemical insult may cause further damage to this tissue.</p>","PeriodicalId":20359,"journal":{"name":"Polish journal of occupational medicine and environmental health","volume":"4 2","pages":"115-25"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12961083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
