Linking nanomaterial physico - chemical properties with cellular uptake and toxicity
Nanotechnology is one of the key technologies of the 21st century. Already by now, many products containing manufactured nanomaterials (NMs) have entered the market. Most industrial applications are based on just a few NM types, mostly metals and metal oxides. However, by varying size, shape or surface chemistry a large number of variants can be produced. Variations of physico-chemical paramete...
متن کاملPhysicochemical properties affecting cellular uptake of carbon nanotubes.
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are widely used for biomedical applications as intracellular transporters of biomolecules owing to their ability to cross cell membranes. In this article, we survey the reported literature and results of our published work in an attempt to provide a rational view of the various CNT internalization mechanisms. Essentially three uptake mechanisms (phagocytosis, diffusion a...
متن کاملEffects of nanomaterial physicochemical properties on in vivo toxicity.
It is well recognized that physical and chemical properties of materials can alter dramatically at nanoscopic scale, and the growing use of nanotechnologies requires careful assessment of unexpected toxicities and biological interactions. However, most in vivo toxicity concerns focus primarily on pulmonary, oral, and dermal exposures to ultrafine particles. As nanomaterials expand as therapeuti...
متن کاملOPERA models for predicting physicochemical properties and environmental fate endpoints
The collection of chemical structure information and associated experimental data for quantitative structure-activity/property relationship (QSAR/QSPR) modeling is facilitated by an increasing number of public databases containing large amounts of useful data. However, the performance of QSAR models highly depends on the quality of the data and modeling methodology used. This study aims to deve...
متن کاملIn-vitro cellular uptake and transport study of 9-nitrocamptothecin PLGA nanoparticles across Caco-2 cell monolayer model
The uptake and transport of 9-nitrocamptothecin (9-NC), a potent anticancer agent, across Caco-2 cell monolayers was studied as a free and PLGA nanoparticle loaded drug. Different sizes (110 to 950 nm) of 9-nitrocamptothecin nanoparticles using poly (lactic-glycolic acid) were prepared by via the nanoprecipitation method. The transport of nanoparticles across the Caco-2 cell monolayer as a func...
