Follow the time course of inflammation caused by intraperitoneal administration of multi-wall carbon nanotubes in mice.


ABSTRACT:

Objective

Understand the progress of inflammation over time caused by multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT).

Methods

Two types of MWCNTs were administered to C57BL/6N mice via intraperitoneal administration at low and high doses (0.05 and 1.0 mg/mouse, respectively). Inflammation was evaluated until 6 months after administration based on cytokine levels and pathological observations. The abdominal cavity lavage fluid was collected and analyzed 1 week, 1, 3, and 6 month(s) after administration. IL-6 expression markedly increased 3 months after the administration of high-dose MWCNT-7.

Results

Notable inflammation was observed in the groups administered with one of the MWCNT, MWCNT-7. On the other hand, inflammation in another MWCNT-treated group was milder than that in the MWCNT-7-treated group. MWCNT-7 induced pronounced inflammation but did not induce tumor formation during the experimental period. Inflammation reaction is one of the most important biological responses to MWCNT.

Conclusion

Three months post-exposure becomes a turning point for the harmful effects of the intraperitoneally administered MWCNT-7.
