A 3-dimensional in vitro model of epithelioid granulomas induced by high aspect ratio nanomaterials

BACKGROUND: The most common causes of granulomatous inflammation are persistent pathogens and poorly-degradable irritating materials. A characteristic pathological reaction to intratracheal instillation, pharyngeal aspiration, or inhalation of carbon nanotubes is formation of epithelioid granulomas...
