Abstract
Nano silver is one of the most widely used engineering nanomaterials with antimicrobial activity against bacteria, fungi, and viruses. However, the widespread application of nano silver preparations in daily life raises concerns about public health. Although several review articles have described the toxicity of nano silver to specific major organs, an updated comprehensive review that clearly and systematically outlines the harmful effects of nano silver is lacking. This review begins with the routes of exposure to nano silver and its distribution in vivo. The toxic reactions are then discussed on three levels, from the organ to the cellular and subcellular levels. This review also provides new insights on adjusting the toxicity of nano silver by changing their size and surface functionalization and their combination with other materials to form a composite formulation. Finally, future development, challenges, and research directions are discussed.

Bright Side of Fusarium oxysporum: Secondary Metabolites Bioactivities and Industrial Relevance in Biotechnology and Nanotechnology. J Fungi (Basel) 2021; 7:jof7110943. [PMID: 34829230 PMCID: PMC8625159 DOI: 10.3390/jof7110943] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2021] [Revised: 11/01/2021] [Accepted: 11/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Fungi have been assured to be one of the wealthiest pools of bio-metabolites with remarkable potential for discovering new drugs. The pathogenic fungi, Fusarium oxysporum affects many valuable trees and crops all over the world, producing wilt. This fungus is a source of different enzymes that have variable industrial and biotechnological applications. Additionally, it is widely employed for the synthesis of different types of metal nanoparticles with various biotechnological, pharmaceutical, industrial, and medicinal applications. Moreover, it possesses a mysterious capacity to produce a wide array of metabolites with a broad spectrum of bioactivities such as alkaloids, jasmonates, anthranilates, cyclic peptides, cyclic depsipeptides, xanthones, quinones, and terpenoids. Therefore, this review will cover the previously reported data on F. oxysporum, especially its metabolites and their bioactivities, as well as industrial relevance in biotechnology and nanotechnology in the period from 1967 to 2021. In this work, 180 metabolites have been listed and 203 references have been cited.

Silver Nanoparticles Induced Oxidative Stress and Mitochondrial Injuries Mediated Autophagy in HC11 Cells Through Akt/AMPK/mTOR Pathway. Biol Trace Elem Res 2021; 199:1062-1073. [PMID: 32666434 DOI: 10.1007/s12011-020-02212-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2020] [Accepted: 05/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are widely used in industrial products, and they have good antibacterial properties, with potential for prevention and treatment of cow mastitis. However, concerns exist about the cytotoxicity of AgNPs. Thus, we have studied the role of autophagy in AgNP-induced cytotoxicity in mouse HC11 mammary epithelium cells. We found that AgNPs injured HC11 cells, with release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). AgNPs also induced autophagy in HC11 cells, which was associated with oxidative stress, as indicated by increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) and increased expression of hemoxygenase-1(HO-1) and Nrf2. Mitochondria were altered by AgNPs: mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was decreased and the expression of PINK1 and Parkin was increased. AgNPs also increased the expression of p-AMPK and decreased the expression of p-Akt and p-mTOR. The addition of 3-methyl adenine inhibited autophagy and enhanced the cytotoxicity of AgNPs, indicating that autophagy is protective against AgNP-induced cell death. In summary, AgNPs induced protective autophagy in HC11 cells via the Akt/AMPK/mTOR pathway, associated with cellular oxidative stress and mitochondrial alterations. Our research confirms that AgNPs may damage the breast tissue in clinical applications and should be used with caution. Further research is necessary to clarify whether the damage caused by AgNPs will affect the lactation function of the mammary glands and possible residues in milk.

Synergistic Effect of Biosynthesized Silver Nanoparticles and Natural Phenolic Compounds against Drug-Resistant Fish Pathogens and Their Cytotoxicity: An In Vitro Study. Mar Drugs 2021; 19:md19010022. [PMID: 33429926 PMCID: PMC7827678 DOI: 10.3390/md19010022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2020] [Revised: 12/31/2020] [Accepted: 01/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Fish pathogens causing disease outbreaks represent a major threat to aquaculture industry and food security. The aim of the presented study is to develop safe and effective bioactive agents against two bacterial isolates: Aeromonas hydrophila and Pseudomonas fluorescens. We employed a broth microdilution method to investigate the antibacterial effect of biosynthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs); rutin, a natural flavonoid extracted from Ruta graveneoles; and heliomycin, a secondary metabolite produced by marine actinomycetes AB5, as monotherapeutic agents. Moreover, AgNPs in combination with rutin (AgNP + R) and heliomycin (AgNPs + H) were examined for their synergistic effect. The cytotoxic effect of individual bioactive compounds and in combination with AgNPs was investigated on epithelioma papulosum cyprini (EPC) fish cell lines. Individual treatment of AgNPs, rutin, and heliomycin exhibited a dose-dependent antimicrobial activity against A. hydrophila and P. fluorescens. Rutin minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) showed the lowest cytotoxicity when tested on EPC cell lines, while heliomycin MIC was highly cytotoxic. Combined subtherapeutic doses of AgNPs + R and AgNPs + H displayed additive and synergistic effects against A. hydrophila and P. fluorescens, respectively, with improved results and relative safety profile. The study findings demonstrate that a combination of AgNPs and natural bioactive compounds may represent novel therapeutics fighting fish pathogens potentially affecting the fish farming industry.
