nanotubes which are now used for many industrial developments, have similar shapes as fibers like asbestos, being long and extremely thin.
although similar structures can mean similar results doesnt mean itll always be that way. although this is a bad example, it gets the point across. Sodium, poison the human; Chlorine, poison to the human; NaCl, eccential to the human.
also "being long and extremely thin" is not something a chemist would exactly say is a good reason for similar structure. hell, gasoline or diesel is a carbon chain if i remember correctly, sounds long and thin, not exactly TOO harmful (controversy, but it's no asbestos).
