- W2034665656 abstract "Attapulgite is a fibrous mineral industrially consumed at the rate of over a million tons per year but the biological activity of the material is not fully known. To evaluate the in vivo toxicity of the fibrous material, we exposed the tracheal lobe of 16 sheep to a single exposure of either 100 ml saline, 100 mg UICC asbestos fibers in 100 ml saline, 100 mg short asbestos fibers in 100 ml saline, or 100 mg attapulgite in 100 ml saline. The animals were studied by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) at Days 2, 12, 24, 40, and 60 and by autopsy at Day 60. In the saline-exposed sheep, BAL and lung histology did not change. In the UICC asbestos-exposed animals, we reproduced the BAL changes previously reported (R. Bégin, M. Rola-Pleszczynski, S. Massé, Y. Berthiaume, and G. Drapeau, 1985, Environ. Res. 36, 389-404). In the short asbestos-exposed sheep, there were no significant BAL changes. In the attapulgite sheep, we found significant and sustained increases in total BAL cells (X2, P less than 0.05), macrophages (X2, P less than 0.05), neutrophils (X5, P less than 0.01), fibronectin (X2-3, P less than 0.05), lactate dehydrogenase (X2, P less than 0.05), beta-glucuronidase (X2, P less than 0.05), but BAL cellularity returned to control levels by Day 60 whereas in the UICC asbestos-exposed sheep, it remained significantly above control. Lung histology demonstrated the characteristic peribronchiolar fibrosing alveolitis in the UICC asbestos-exposed sheep, whereas macrophagic alveolitis with minimal airway distortion was seen in the short asbestos-exposed sheep and in all of the attapulgite-exposed sheep but three which had typical peribronchiolar alveolitis quite similar to that observed in UICC-exposed sheep, but of lower intensity. In conclusion, the study documents that attapulgite is not an inert material for lung tissue; it does produce a macrophagic and neutrophilic alveolitis in the early inflammatory phase of lung reaction with peribronchiolar involvement in some sheep. Whether or not this initial attapulgite induced alveolitis leads to lung fibrosis remains to be evaluated in a longer follow-up study of attapulgite-exposed animals." @default.
