The expression of nerve growth factor in mice lung following low-level toluene exposure

Title: The expression of nerve growth factor in mice lung following low-level toluene exposure.

Summary: "expression of CCL2 and CCL3 mRNAs was significantly elevated in 9ppm toluene-exposed, immunized mice. These findings suggest that the exposure with volatile organic compounds enhanced NGF expression and airway inflammation stronger in allergic individuals than in healthy individuals."
