Silicon Dioxide 18-24 tumor necrosis factor Mus musculus 0-3 2753523-11 1989 TNF production in silica-instilled mice was similar to controls, possibly due to the presence of large numbers of neutrophils (3.3 x 10(5)/lavage) that could adsorb TNF. Silicon Dioxide 18-24 tumor necrosis factor Mus musculus 165-168 2753523-12 1989 In vitro experiments showed an augmentation of TNF production by bronchoalveolar cells in the presence of silica. Silicon Dioxide 106-112 tumor necrosis factor Mus musculus 47-50 2753523-13 1989 Taken together, our data suggest that asbestos and silica stimulate alveolar macrophages to produce TNF, which can be involved in pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis. Silicon Dioxide 51-57 tumor necrosis factor Mus musculus 100-103
