RNA-Seq of BEAS-2B cells treated with low doses of Ni and NiO nanoparticles as well as NiCl2 for 6 weeks

ABSTRACT: Human bronchial lung cells (BEAS-2B) were treated for 6 weeks with low doses (0.5 µg/mL) of Ni and NiO nanoparticles and NiCl2. At the end of the exposure control and treated samples were submitted for RNA-Seq analysis (Hiseq2500). The overall goal of this experiment was to gain an in-depth understanding of the transcriptomic changes induced by low-dose, long-term exposure of human lung cells to Ni and NiO nanoparticles as well as to NiCl2 and to generate hypotheses related to their mechanisms of toxicity.
