La3+, Ce3+, and F- are probably the main toxic substances in WSPM, and may be regulate the A549 cell cycle by affecting the expression of genes, such as MDM2, RB1, ATM, TP53, E2F1, CDK2 and CDK4. These results indicate the importance for further research into the relationship between APM and lung cancer. The gene discussed is ATM; the disease is lung carcinoma.
