CHEMICAL AGENTS Enhancing Resistance to Sulphur Mustard Injury: Expression of Glutathione S-Transferase in Human Keratinocytes – Developing a Model to Explore Pre-Exposure Strategies
ABSTRACT THIS PAPER DESCRIBES the rationale for current work undertaken at the Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Defence Centre (CBRN DC) investigating the feasibility of pre-exposure approaches to counteracting the toxicity of the chemical warfare agent Sulphur mustard (HD). HD is a vesicant that causes severe, slow-healing lesions in skin, lungs and eyes. The work… Read more »
