Blood gene expression changes in response to exposure to dust containing silica

GSE165489 Homo sapiens Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing 86 samples 2024/12/31 GPL16791
Summary
Occupational exposure to dust containing crystalline silica may result in serious adverse health effects including silicosis and cancer. Previous studies which employed animal models for inhalation exposure to crystalline silica revealed changes in blood gene expression profiles in association with the silica-induced lung toxicity. Currently, global gene expression profiles were determined in the whole blood samples obtained from control (not exposed to dust) and dust containing silica exposed individuals with or without clinically identified silicosis. Differences in the blood gene expression profiles were detected in the blood samples obtained from the control and the silica-containing dust exposed individuals. Between the two groups of the silica-containing dust exposed individuals, the number of significantly differentially expressed genes was more in the blood samples obtained from those with silicosis.
