Fine particle matters induce DNA damage and G2/M cell cycle arrest in human bronchial epithelial BEAS-2B cells

Wu, J.; Shi, Y.; Asweto, Collins O.; Feng, L.; Yang, X.; Zhang, Y.; Hu, H.; Duan, J.; Sun, Z. (SpringerLink, 2017-11)

There is compelling evidence that exposure to particulate matter (PM) is linked to lung tumorigenesis. However, there is not enough experimental evidence to support the specific mechanisms of PM2.5-induced DNA damage and ...

Gene expression profiles and bioinformatics analysis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells exposed to PM2.5

Hu, H.; Asweto, Collins O.; Wu, J.; Shi, Y.; Feng, L.; Yang, X.; Liang, S.; Cao, L.; Duan, J.; Sun, Z. (Elsevier, 2017-05)

Cardiovascular system is demonstrated the main target of PM2.5 and the objective of this study was to explore the toxic effect and molecular mechanisms caused by PM2.5 in primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells ...

Low-dose combined exposure of nanoparticles and heavy metal compared with PM2.5 in human myocardial AC16 cells

Feng, L.; Yang, X.; Asweto, Collins O.; Wu, Jing; Zhang, Y; Hu, H.; Shi, Y.; Duan, Junchao; Sun, Z. (Springer, 2017-12)

The co-exposure toxicity mechanism of ultrafine particles and pollutants on human cardiovascular system are still unclear. In this study, the combined effects of silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) and/or carbon black nanoparticles ...

Gene profiles to characterize the combined toxicity induced by low level co-exposure of silica nanoparticles and benzo[a]pyrene using whole genome microarrays in zebrafish embryos.

Asweto, Collins O.; Hu, H; Liang, S.; Wang, L.; Liu, M.; Yang, H.; Duan, J.; Sun, Z. (Elsevier, 2018-07)

Several studies have suggested that air pollutants combine exposure have greater adverse effects. However, limited studies were available on the combined toxicity of silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) and benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P). ...

Effects of increased residential mobility and reduced public spaces Effects of increased residential mobility and reduced public spaces mobility in containing COVID-19 in Africa

Asweto, Collins O.; Onyango, Patrick O.; Alzain, Mohamed A; Wang, Wei (Global Reports, 2020-09)

Background Background The rising COVID-19 crisis threatens to disproportionately hit African countries. As a result, most African governments have temporarily closed schools and non-essential businesses or banned ...
