Abstract

The great majority of studies exploring potential pathogenic effects of engineered nanomaterials have been conducted in study settings mimicking the effects in healthy individuals, but only part of the world's population belongs to this group. A significant proportion of the population has impaired health conditions, such as allergy and asthma that are believed to make these individuals more susceptible to additional health risks from particulate exposure. In this chapter, we discuss the impact of engineered nanomaterials, in particular, carbon nanotubes, on allergic pulmonary inflammation and asthma. © 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
