pubmed:abstractText |
Beryllium sensitization is caused by exposure to beryllium in the workplace. A subset of beryllium-sensitized (BeS) subjects progress to chronic beryllium disease (CBD), a disorder characterized by a CD4+ T-cell alveolitis and granulomatous inflammation. Whether biomarkers are present in blood that would allow separation of CBD from beryllium sensitization without invasive pulmonary procedures is unknown.
