Silica Nanoparticles Shed Light on Intriguing Cellular Pathways in Human Tracheal Smooth Muscle Cells: Revealing COX-2/PGE<sub>2</sub> Production through the EGFR/Pyk2 Signaling Axis

Silica Nanoparticles Shed Light on Intriguing Cellular Pathways in Human Tracheal Smooth Muscle Cells: Revealing COX-2/PGE<sub>2</sub> Production through the EGFR/Pyk2 Signaling Axis

The use of manufactured silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) has become widespread in everyday life, household products, and various industrial applications. While the harmful effects of crystalline silica on the lungs, known as silicosis or chronic pulmonary diseases, are well understood, the impact of SiN...
