Abstract
Atherosclerosis is a systemic pathophysiological condition contributing to the development of majority of polyvascular diseases. Nanomedicine is a novel and rapidly developing science. Due to their small size, nanoparticles are freely transported in vasculature, and have been widely employed as tools in analytical imaging techniques. Furthermore, the application of nanoparticles also allows target intervention, such as drug delivery and tissue engineering regenerative methods, in the management of major vascular diseases. Therefore, by summarizing the physical and chemical characteristics of common nanoparticles used in diagnosis and treatment of vascular diseases, we discuss the details of these applications from cellular, molecular, and in vivo perspectives in this review. Furthermore, we also summarize the status and challenges of the application of nanoparticles in clinical translation. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Cardiovascular Disease Implantable Materials and Surgical Technologies > Nanomaterials and Implants Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Emerging Technologies.

Abstract
The increasing appearance of engineered nanomaterials in broad biomedical and industrial sectors poses an escalating health concern from unintended exposure with unknown consequences. Routine in vitro assessments of nanomaterial toxicity are a vital component to addressing these mounting health concerns; however, despite the known role of cell-cell and cell-matrix contacts in governing cell survival, these physical interactions are generally ignored. Herein, we demonstrate that exposure to amorphous silica particles destabilizes mitochondrial membrane potential, stimulates reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and promotes cytotoxicity in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma through mechanisms that are potently matrix dependent, with SH-SY5Y cells plated on the softest matrix displaying a near complete recovery in viability compared to dose-matched cells plated on tissue-culture plastic. Cells on the softest matrix (3 kPa) further displayed a 50% reduction in ROS production and preserved mitochondrial membrane potential. The actin cytoskeleton is mechanosensitive and closely related to ROS production. SH-SY5Y cells exposed to a 100 μg/mL dose of 50 nm silica particles displayed distinct cytoskeletal aberrations and a 70% increase in cell stiffness. Overall, this study establishes that the mechanical environment can significantly impact silica nanoparticle toxicity in SH-SY5Y cells. The mechanobiochemical mechanisms behind this regulation, which are initiated at the cell-matrix interface to adjust cytoskeletal structure and intracellular tension, demand specific attention for a comprehensive understanding of nanotoxicity.

Abstract
Environmental exposure to nanoparticles (NPs) has significantly increased in the last decades, mostly due to increased environmental pollution and frequent use of NP containing consumer products. Such NPs may enter our body and cause various health-related problems. The brain is a particularly problematic accumulation site due to its physiological and anatomical restrictions. Several mechanisms of NP neurotoxicity have already been identified, however not enough is known especially regarding toxicity of engineered/industrial NPs. The focus of this in vitro study was on analysis of neurotoxicity of different engineered NPs, with which we come into contact in our daily lives; SiO2 NPs, food grade (FG) TiO2 NPs, TiO2 P25 and silver NPs as examples of industrial NPs, and polyacrylic acid (PAA) coated cobalt ferrite NPs as an example of biomedical NPs. All short term exposure experiments (24-72 h) were performed on SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cell line in vitro using higher (25-50 μg/ml) as well as lower (2-10 μg/ml), concentrations that are more relevant for in vivo NPs exposure. We show that NPs can cause neurotoxicity through different mechanisms, such as membrane damage, cell cycle interference, ROS formation and accumulation of autophagosomes, depending on their physico-chemical properties and stability in physiological media. Low, in vivo achievable concentrations of NPs induced only minor or no changes in vitro, however prolonged exposure and accumulation in vivo could negatively affect the cells. This was also shown in case of autophagy dysfunction for TiO2 P25 NPs and decrease of cell viability for TiO2 FG NPs, which were only evident after 72 h of incubation.

An in vitro toxicity evaluation of gold-, PLLA- and PCL-coated silica nanoparticles in neuronal cells for nanoparticle-assisted laser-tissue soldering. Toxicol In Vitro 2014; 28:990-8. [PMID: 24768613 DOI: 10.1016/j.tiv.2014.04.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2014] [Revised: 04/03/2014] [Accepted: 04/14/2014] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
The uptake of silica (Si) and gold (Au) nanoparticles (NPs) engineered for laser-tissue soldering in the brain was investigated using microglial cells and undifferentiated and differentiated SH-SY5Y cells. It is not known what effects NPs elicit once entering the brain. Cellular uptake, cytotoxicity, apoptosis, and the potential induction of oxidative stress by means of depletion of glutathione levels were determined after NP exposure at concentrations of 10(3) and 10(9)NPs/ml. Au-, silica poly (ε-caprolactone) (Si-PCL-) and silica poly-L-lactide (Si-PLLA)-NPs were taken up by all cells investigated. Aggregates and single NPs were found in membrane-surrounded vacuoles and the cytoplasm, but not in the nucleus. Both NP concentrations investigated did not result in cytotoxicity or apoptosis, but reduced glutathione (GSH) levels predominantly at 6 and 24h, but not after 12 h of NP exposure in the microglial cells. NP exposure-induced GSH depletion was concentration-dependent in both cell lines. Si-PCL-NPs induced the strongest effect of GSH depletion followed by Si-PLLA-NPs and Au-NPs. NP size seems to be an important characteristic for this effect. Overall, Au-NPs are most promising for laser-assisted vascular soldering in the brain. Further studies are necessary to further evaluate possible effects of these NPs in neuronal cells.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has been applied in consumer products and commercial applications, showing a significant impact on almost all industries and all areas of society. Significant evidence indicates that manufactured nanomaterials and combustion-derived nano-materials elicit toxicity in humans exposed to these nanomaterials. The interaction of the engineered nanomaterials with the nervous system has received much attention in the nanotoxicology field. In this review, the biological effects of metal, metal oxide, and carbon-based nanomaterials on the nervous system are discussed from both in vitro and in vivo studies. The translocation of the nanoparticles through the blood–brain barrier or nose to brain via the olfactory bulb route, oxidative stress, and inflammatory mechanisms of nanomaterials are also reviewed.
