Metal-organic framework [H2NMe2]3 [Tb(PDA)3] induces cytotoxic effects and changes DNA methylation-related gene expression in a human fibroblast cell line
Abstract:The lanthanide metal-organic frameworks (lanthanide MOFs) may be utilized for a variety of environmental and human health applications due to its luminescent properties and high thermal and water stability. However, the cytotoxic and epigenetic effects that these produce in human cells are not known. Therefore, we evaluated the cytotoxic effects, internalization and changes in DNA methylation-associated gene expression induced by exposing human fibroblast cells to a Terbium-based MOF (Tb-MOF). For this purpose… Show more
