Mechanisms Underlying Cytotoxicity Induced by Engineered Nanomaterials: A Review of In Vitro Studies
Engineered nanomaterials are emerging functional materials with technologically interesting properties and a wide range of promising applications, such as drug delivery devices, medical imaging and diagnostics, and various other industrial products. However, concerns have been expressed about the risks of such materials and whether they can cause adverse effects. Studies of the potential hazard...
متن کاملMechanisms of renal cell apoptosis induced by cyclosporine A: a systematic review of in vitro studies.
BACKGROUND Chronic cyclosporine A (CsA) nephrotoxicity (CCN) is a major cause of chronic renal dysfunction and has no effective clinical interventions yet. OBJECTIVE To reveal the mechanisms of renal cell apoptosis in CCN, we analyzed all in vitro studies of such mechanisms. METHODS We collected all in vitro studies about the mechanisms of renal cell apoptosis induced by CsA in Medline (196...
متن کاملToxicogenomics to Improve Comprehension of the Mechanisms Underlying Responses of In Vitro and In Vivo Systems to Nanomaterials: A Review
Engineered nanomaterials are commonly defined as materials with at least one dimension of 100 nanometers or less. Such materials typically possess nanostructure-dependent properties (e.g., chemical, mechanical, electrical, optical, magnetic, biological), which make them desiderable for commercial or medical application. However, these same properties may potentially lead to nanostructure-depend...
متن کاملProteomic Characterization of Biological Effects Induced by Engineered Nanomaterials
Nanotechnology has been one of the major success stories of the early 21st century. The foundation for this success rests on the discovery that a small size confers completely new properties on materials. Nowadays, engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) are used in a plethora of applications such as paints, cosmetics, food products and electronics. These new properties, however, potentially make ENMs ...
متن کاملToxicology of engineered nanomaterials - a review of carcinogenic potential.
Nanotechnology has considerable socioeconomic potential. Benefits afforded by engineered nanoparticles (NP: defined as being less than 100 nm in diameter) are expected to be significant in fields such as plastics, energy, electronics, aerospace and medicine. However, NPs are being introduced into the market without adequate assessment of their potential toxicities. It is urgently important to c...
