• (STATs) to the HSP70 promoters in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) [32]. This group exposed VSMCs to H2O2 and found that the cytoplasmic janus tyrosine kinase 2 (JAK2)/STAT pathway can up-regulate HSP70 and minimize oxidative stress effects on the cells. The inhibition of HSP70 expression under laser

• times did not cause adverse health effects in rats as measured by lung function, hematology, and body weight chances [25][26]. The mechanisms of toxicity are proposed to be oxidative stress, DNA damage, and the modulation of cytokine production [20]. In addition, Liu et al. showed that AgNP undergo
