EXPRESSION OF PROLIFERATIVE AND INFLAMMATORY MARKERS IN A FULL-THICKNESS HUMAN SKIN EQUIVALENT FOLLOWING EXPOSURE TO THE MODEL SULFUR MUSTARD VESICANT, 2-CHLOROETHYL ETHYL SULFIDE.

Sulfur mustard is a potent vesicant that induces inflammation, edema and blistering following dermal exposure. To assess molecular mechanisms mediating these responses, we analyzed the effects of the model sulfur mustard vesicant, 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide, on EpiDerm-FT™, a commercially available...
