- W361124311 abstract "Numbers and sizes of fibers from the lungs of 10 patients who had an amphibole asbestos-induced malignant pleural mesothelioma were analyzed. Amosite was found in 10 lungs and crocidolite in 9; the average ratio of amosite to crocidolite was approximately 14:1. In the 8 patients who were not long-time asbestos insulators , the mean number of amosite fibers was 2.3 X 10(6) fibers/g dry lung, and of crocidolite fibers, 0.2 X 10(6)/g; these values represent an approximately 250-fold increase over those found in the general population. Crocidolite fibers were significantly narrower than amosite fibers (mean width, 0.13 versus 0.23 mu), were significantly shorter (mean length, 4.0 versus 5.8 mu), and had a significantly higher mean aspect (length to width) ratio (48 versus 34). Aspect ratios in general increased with increasing fiber length and decreasing fiber width, but the highest values were found for thin amosite fibers at about 13 mu in length, and thin crocidolite fibers at 8 or 15-17 mu in length. Comparison with data from other asbestos-exposed populations indicates that mesothelioma can be induced by relatively small numbers of amphibole fibers and also indicates that amosite is an effective mesothelial carcinogen in humans. Comparison of these data with epidemiologic and experimental predictions of carcinogenic size ranges for mesothelioma induction implies that either the carcinogenic size range is much broader than has been claimed (in particular, fibers considerably shorter than 8 mu and broader than 0.05 mu can produce mesothelioma), or, alternately, that extraordinarily small absolute numbers of fibers in certain size ranges can induce tumors in humans." @default.
