Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInflammatory Effects of Co-Exposure to Heavy Metals (Cd and Pb) and Respiratory Viruses (229E, OC43, and H3N2) on IL-6 and IL-8 Responses in U87 Glioblastoma CellsHyeokjun Yun, Qian-Wen Wang, Jae Kyung KimCo-exposure to heavy metals and viruses can pose threats to cellular health by increasing cytotoxicity and inflammatory cytokine expression. We aimed to elucidate the interactions between these factors inhuman glioblastoma cells (U87). U87 cells were exposed to influenza A virus (H3N2), coronaviruses OC43 and 229E, and heavy metals Cd and Pb. Cell viability and cytotoxicity were assessed through WST-8 and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 5 Jul 2025 · 5,506 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleResponses of Neural Cells (U87) to HCoV-229E and HCoV-OC43 InfectionsEun Ju Oh, Jae-Sik Jeon, Qian-Wen Wang, Jae Kyung KimRespiratory viruses, such as Coronaviruses (CoVs), can be neuroinvasive and exacerbate neurological pathologies via their capacity for direct viral replication and/or by inducing excessive host immune responses in the Central Nervous System (CNS). HCoV-229E is a primary COVID-19 and HCoV-OC43 is a beta COVID-19 belonging to the same genus as SARS-CoV-2 and both can cause acute infections in glioblastoma, neuroblastoma, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 2 · 8 Jun 2023 · 5,186 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEarly Responses of Neural Cells (U87) to Particulate Matter Exposure: Cell Viability and Cytokine ConcentrationJae-Sik Jeon, Eun Ju Oh, Qian-Wen Wang, Jae Kyung KimParticulate Matter (PM) has a significant impact on human health and increases the risk of respiratory diseases. PM exposure is linked to various illnesses, including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, neurological diseases, and pregnancy complications, and contributes to both mortality and morbidity globally. PM can also influence the autonomic nervous system. The evidence suggests that the likelihood of developing lung cancer continually … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2023 · 5,451 accessesView PDF Cite
