carbon tetrachloride and Lung Diseases

carbon tetrachloride has been researched along with Lung Diseases in 8 studies

Carbon Tetrachloride: A solvent for oils, fats, lacquers, varnishes, rubber waxes, and resins, and a starting material in the manufacturing of organic compounds. Poisoning by inhalation, ingestion or skin absorption is possible and may be fatal. (Merck Index, 11th ed)
tetrachloromethane : A chlorocarbon that is methane in which all the hydrogens have been replaced by chloro groups.

Lung Diseases: Pathological processes involving any part of the LUNG.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) is a well known toxicant and exposure to this chemical is known to induce oxidative stress and causes tissue damage by the formation of free radicals."1.37Carbon tetrachloride induced kidney and lung tissue damages and antioxidant activities of the aqueous rhizome extract of Podophyllum hexandrum. ( Ganie, SA; Hamid, A; Haq, E; Mahmood, Z; Masood, A; Qurishi, Y; Zargar, BA; Zargar, MA, 2011)
" From these experiments, we conclude that retinol pretreatment decreases the severity of 2-nitronaphthalene and paraquat-induced pulmonary toxicity, apparently by inhibiting the inflammatory responses associated with the progression of toxic injury."1.29Modulation of chemical-induced lung and liver toxicity by all-trans-retinol in the male Sprague-Dawley rat. ( Sauer, JM; Sipes, IG, 1995)
