Chronic exposure to low levels of arsenic can cause lung cancer. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms for lung cell transformation in response to arsenic are not known. These studies investigated the hypothesis that low levels of arsenic increase intracellular oxidant levels, promote produ
## Abstract High‐tidal volume ventilation has been shown to increase the expression of several inflammation‐associated genes prior to overt physiologic lung injury. Herein, using an in vitro stretch system, we investigated the mechanotransduction pathways involved in ventilation‐induced expression
