Oral administration of aflatoxin G₁ induces chronic alveolar inflammation associated with lung tumorigenesis.
Published in Toxicology Letters
Our previous studies showed oral gavage of aflatoxin G₁ (AFG₁) induced lung adenocarcinoma in NIH mice. We recently found that a single intratracheal administration of AFG₁ caused chronic inflammatory changes in rat alveolar septum. Here, we examine whether oral gavage of AFG₁ induces chronic lung inflammation and how it contributes to carcinogenes...
