  Download the Dataset decsribed here from Data.cdc.gov at https://doi.org/10.26616/NIOSHRD-1055-2023-0. ; Nanomaterials represent a new class of materials with numerous industrial applications. Considering the projected increase in the production and use of nanomaterials, a corresponding increase in occupational exposure to nanomaterials and their resulting adverse health effects should be anticipated among workers. There is substantial evidence in the literature, based on cell culture and animal studies, supporting the potential toxicity and detrimental health effects associated with exposure to nanomaterials. Intervention and/or prevention of adverse health effects associated with occupational exposure to toxic nanomaterials will be a major concern for health providers and regulatory and non-regulatory government agencies as the use of nanomaterials expand. A key element in the intervention and/or prevention of the adverse health effects associated with occupational exposure to toxic nanomaterials is a clear understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the pulmonary toxicity induced by nanomaterials. Due to its physicochemical and mechanical properties, nanocellulose has found many applications in manufactured goods in the paper and food industry, cosmetics, biomedicine, and pharmaceuticals. There is potential for human exposure to nanocellulose or products that contain nanocellulose both during the production and use of the materials that contain nanocellulose. The objectives of the current study were to determine lung toxicity potential of crystalline nanocellulose (CNC) and the molecular mechanisms underlying the toxicity. A rat inhalation exposure model was employed to determine the lung toxicity potential of CNC. Global gene expression profile in the lung and bioinformatic analysis of the gene expression data were conducted to determine the molecular mechanisms underlying the CNC-induced lung toxicity.
