In vitro effects of nanoparticles on renal cells

Abstract: Background: The ability of nanoparticles to cross the lung-blood barrier suggests that they may translocate to blood and to targets distant from their portal of entry. Nevertheless, nanotoxicity in organs has received little attention. The purpose of this study was to evaluate nanotoxicity in renal cells using in vitro models. Various carbon black (CB) (FW2-13 nm, Printex60-21 nm and LB101-95 nm) and titanium dioxide (TiO 2 -15 and TiO 2 -50 nm) nanoparticles were characterized on size by electron microscopy. … Show more

“…3), using the MTT assay that measures the combined effects of cell proliferation and metabolic activity of cells. Our results were validated by directly counting the number of surviving cells using the trypan blue staining assay because the MTT assay is prone to artifacts under certain experimental conditions (L'Azou et al, 2008). The cell viability in cell culture medium containing non-coated TiO 2 was reduced to almost 50% of control values at the highest concentration examined (100 mg/L), which was in agreement with earlier studies of P25-TiO 2 (Liu et al, 2010;Park et al, 2008).…”

“…The small size of nanomaterials provides them with specific properties, such as high surface-to-volume ratio and high surface charge (Linse et al, 2007). It has been reported that nanomaterials translocate from the interstitial region of the lung after respiratory exposure to other organs, such as the liver and kidney, through blood circulation (L'Azou et al, 2008;Nemmar et al, 2002;Semmler et al, 2004;Elder and Oberdörster, 2006).…”
