Embryotoxicity of silica nanoparticles in the drug delivery of domperidone in zebrafish. AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2023; 258:106454. [PMID: 36958154 DOI: 10.1016/j.aquatox.2023.106454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2023] [Revised: 02/16/2023] [Accepted: 02/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Domperidone is a dopamine D2 receptor inhibitor that stimulates pituitary gonadotropins. It is usually associated with synthetic GnRHa to promote spawning in fish. However, the route of administration used, intramuscular injection, can be quite stressful. Little is known about the effects of domperidone, as well as other routes. This study aims to evaluate the toxicity of domperidone encapsulated by silica nanoparticles in zebrafish embryos. The study involved four groups with three concentrations: 1. domperidone (DP) 0.0001, 0.0002 and 0.0004 mg/mL; 2. DP associated with silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) 0.0001 + 1.1, 0.0002 + 2.2 and 0.0004 + 4.4 mg/mL; 3. SiNPs 1.1, 2.2 and 4.4 mg/mL and 4. Control (E3), with four repetitions per group. Survival, teratogen and heart rate (HR) were evaluated over a period of 168 hpf. Survival was higher in DP + SiNPs treatment, HR was lower in treatment with 4.4 mg/mL of SiNPs, while treatment with 0.004 mg/mL of DP increased HR. This study demonstrated that the association of DP and SiNPs decreased the toxicity of both DP and SiNPs, demonstrating that this may be a viable alternative to reduce the possible cardiotoxic effects of DP.

Silica nanoparticles perturbed mitochondrial dynamics and induced myocardial apoptosis via PKA-DRP1-mitochondrial fission signaling. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 842:156854.

Abstract
Silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) are among the most abundantly produced nanosized particles in the global market, and their potential toxicity has aroused a great concern. Increasing epidemiological investigations and experimental evidence revealed the threaten of SiNPs exposure to cardiovascular system. The myocardial toxicity caused by SiNPs was gradually demonstrated, nevertheless, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In view of mitochondria serving as the centrality in the prominent of cardiovascular disease, we investigated the role of mitochondria and related mechanisms in SiNPs-induced adverse effects on cardiomyocytes. As a result, SiNPs were found in cytoplasm, accompanied with morphological alterations in mitochondria, such as cristae fracture or disappearance, vacuolation. The induction of mitochondrial dysfunction by SiNPs was confirmed, as indicated by the excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, and blockage of cellular respiratory and ATP production. Concomitantly, SiNPs activated mitochondria-mediated apoptotic signaling in view of the up-regulated BAX, increased Caspase-9 cleavage and declined Bcl-2, ultimately resulting in myocardial apoptosis. It was noteworthy that SiNPs disturbed mitochondrial dynamics toward fission phenotype, which was supported by the dysregulated fission/fusion regulators. Especially, DRP1 and its phosphorylated level at s616 (p-DRP1s616) were up-regulated, whilst its phosphorylated level at s637 (p-DRP1s637) and PKA phosphorylation were down-regulated in SiNPs-treated cardiomyocytes in a dose-dependent manner. More importantly, the mechanistic investigations revealed PKA-DRP1-mediated mitochondrial fission was responsible for SiNPs-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis through the mitochondria-mediated apoptotic way. This study firstly demonstrated the disturbance of mitochondrial dynamics played a crucial role in cardiomyocyte apoptosis caused by SiNPs, attributing to PKA-DRP1-mitochondrial fission signaling.

Abstract
The cytotoxicity of carvacrol- and thymol-functionalised mesoporous silica microparticles (MCM-41) was assessed in the human hepatocarcinoma cell line (HepG2). Cell viability, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), lipid peroxidation (LPO) and apoptosis/necrosis analyses were used as endpoints. The results showed that both materials induced cytotoxicity in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, and were more cytotoxic than free essential oil components and bare MCM-41. This effect was caused by cell-particle interactions and not by degradation products released to the culture media, as demonstrated in the extract dilution assays. LDH release was a less sensitive endpoint than the MTT (thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide) assay, which suggests the impairment of the mitochondrial function as the primary cytotoxic mechanism. In vitro tests on specialised cell functions showed that exposure to sublethal concentrations of these materials did not induce ROS formation during 2 h of exposure, but produced LPO and ΔΨm alterations in a concentration-dependent manner when cells were exposed for 24 h. The obtained results generally support the hypothesis that the carvacrol- and thymol-functionalised MCM-41 microparticles induced toxicity in HepG2 cells by an oxidative stress-related mechanism that resulted in apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway.

Abstract
The extensive application of silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) brings about inevitable occupational, environmental, and even iatrogenic exposure for human beings. The liver, which is rich in mitochondria, is one of the target organs of SiNPs, but the underlying mechanisms by which these nanoparticles (NPs) interact with liver mitochondria and affect their functions still remain unclear. In the present study, we examined silicon nanoparticle (SiNP)-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, and further revealed its negative effects on mitochondrial quality control (MQC) in the human liver cell line L-02, including mitochondrial dynamics, mitophagy and biogenesis. Consequently, SiNPs induced cellular injury, accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction, including mitochondrial reactive oxygen generation and mitochondrial membrane potential collapse. In line with the transmission electron microscopy (TEM)-observed abnormalities in the mitochondrial morphology and length distribution, a fission phenotype was manifested in the mitochondria of SiNP-exposed cells, and up-regulated DRP1 and FIS1, and down-regulated MFN1, were detected. Furthermore, the enhanced LC3II level, colocalization of the mitochondria and lysosomes, activated PINK1/Parkin signaling, and accumulated p62 in the SiNP-exposed cells suggested mitophagy disorder triggered by SiNPs. In addition, SiNPs inhibited mito-biogenesis, as evidenced by the reduced mitochondrial mass and mtDNA copy number, as well as the suppressed PGC1α-NRF1-TFAM signaling pathway. Overall, the study demonstrates that SiNPs trigger hepatocytotoxicity through interfering with the MQC process, bringing in excessive mitochondrial fission, mitophagy disorder and suppressed mito-biogenesis, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction and ensuing cell damage, and ultimately contributing to the occurrence and development of liver diseases. Our research could provide important experimental evidence related to safety assessments of SiNPs, especially in the field of biomedical applications.

Abstract
Increasing environmental exposure to silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) and limited cardiotoxicity studies posed a challenge for the safety evaluation and management of these materials. This study aimed to explore the adverse effects and underlying mechanisms of subacute exposure to SiNPs on cardiac function in rats. Results from echocardiographic, ultrastructural and histopathological analysis found that SiNPs induced cardiac contractile dysfunction, accompanied by incomplete myocardial structures, disordered sarcomere segments, interstitial edema and myocyte apoptosis in heart. Levels of myocardial enzymes and inflammatory factors were markedly increased in both serum and heart tissue, accompanied by elevated levels of oxidative damage occurred in the hearts of SiNPs-treated rats. SiNPs significantly upregulated the expressions of inflammation and contraction-related proteins, including JNK, p-JNK, c-Jun, TF and PAR1. Lentivirus transfection of JNK shRNA showed the low-expression of JNK-facilitated F-actin and inhibited TF in the SiNPs-treated cardiomyocytes. Moreover, SiNPs activated the mRNA and protein levels of JNK/TF/PAR1 pathway, and these effects were significantly dampened after JNK knock down. Our results demonstrate that SiNPs trigger myocardial contractile dysfunction via JNK/TF/PAR1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Nano-particles (NPs) are used in industrial and biomedical fields such as cosmetics, food additives and biosensors. Beside their favorable properties, nanoparticles are responsible for toxic effects. Local adverse effects and/or systemic toxicity are described with nanoparticle delivery to target organs of the human body. Animal studies provide evidence for the aforementioned toxicity. Cardiac function is a specific target of nanoparticles. Thus, reviewing the current bibliography on cardiotoxicity of nanoparticles and specifically of titanium, zinc, silver, carbon, silica and iron oxide nano-materials is the aim of this study.

Abstract
Understanding complex chemical changes that take place at nano-bio interfaces is of great concern for being able to sustainably implement nanomaterials in key applications such as drug delivery, imaging, and environmental remediation. Typical in vitro assays use cell viability as a proxy to understanding nanotoxicity but often neglect how the nanomaterial surface can be altered by adsorption of solution-phase components in the medium. Protein coronas form on the nanomaterial surface when incubated in proteinaceous solutions. Herein, we apply a broad array of techniques to characterize and quantify protein corona formation on silica nanoparticle surfaces. The porosity and surface chemistry of the silica nanoparticles have been systematically varied. Using spectroscopic tools such as FTIR and circular dichroism, structural changes and kinetic processes involved in protein adsorption were evaluated. Additionally, by implementing thermogravimetric analysis, quantitative protein adsorption measurements allowed for the direct comparison between samples. Taken together, these measurements enabled the extraction of useful chemical information on protein binding onto nanoparticles in solution. Overall, we demonstrate that small alkylamines can increase protein adsorption and that even large polymeric molecules such as poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) cannot prevent protein adsorption in these systems. The implications of these results as they relate to further understanding nano-bio interactions are discussed.
