Abstract
We recently found that the chronic sterile inflammation contributes to arsenic lung tumorigenesis which is inhibited by autophagy. STAT3 regulates the interaction between inflammation and autophagy. STAT3 may also play a critical role in mediating the crosstalk between lung epithelial cells and their microenvironment, including immune cells, during arsenic lung carcinogenesis.
