asbesto, carcinógeno, mesotelioma, ColombiaResumen
Asbesto es el nombre asignado desde hace décadas a un grupo de materiales fibrosos con múltiples usos comerciales. Todas las formas de asbesto son cancerígenas para el ser humano, pudiendo causar cáncer de pulmón, laringe, ovario, mesotelioma, entre otras enfermedades relacionadas. El 11 de julio de 2019 se promulgó en Colombia la Ley 1968 “Ana Cecilia Niño" que prohíbe explotar, producir, comercializar, importar, distribuir o exportar cualquier variedad de asbesto y de los productos con él elaborados en el territorio nacional. Con el objetivo de generar un panorama amplio sobre el asbesto como carcinógeno ocupacional en Colombia, la presente revisión aborda cuatro ejes fundamentales de interés: los mecanismos moleculares y celulares, la patología molecular, la investigación clínica y la salud pública en Colombia.
