Project description:Via extensive comparative analysis of 3D human bronchial epithelial model (MucilAirTM) exposed to air or CuO-based aerosols, we show that existence of asthma enhances sensitivity of the airways to nanoparticles, possibly as a combined result of a hyperactive airway and inefficient mucociliary clearance mechanisms in asthmatics.

Project description:There is still a lot of contradiction on whether metal ions are solely responsible for the observed the toxicity of ZnO and CuO nanoparticles to aquatic species. While most tests have studied nanoparticle effects at organismal levels (e.g. mortality, reproduction), effects at suborganismal levels may clarify the role of metal ions, nanoparticles and nanoparticle aggregates. In this study, the effect of ZnO, CuO nanoparticles and zinc, copper salts was tested on the gene expression levels in Daphnia magna. D. magna was exposed during 96 hours to 10% immobilization concentrations of all chemicals, after which daphnids were sampled for a differential gene expression analysis using microarray. When comparing the nanoparticle exposed daphnids (ZnO or CuO) to the metal salt exposed daphnids (zinc or copper salt), the microarray results showed no significantly differentially expressed genes. These results indicate that the toxicity of the tested ZnO and CuO nanoparticles to D. magna caused is solely caused by toxic metal ions. 4 replicate exposures of ZnO nanoparticles, ZnCl2, Blank (for Zn); 4 replicate exposures of CuO nanoparticles, CuCl2.2H2O, Blank (for Cu); Individual reference design with swapped dyes for zinc (e.g. ZnO-REFZn; REFZn-bl) and copper exposure (e.g. CuO-REFCu; REFCu-bl); Zinc reference sample is a mixture of equal aliquots of ZnO nanoparticle, ZnCl2 and blank; Copper reference sample is a mixture of equal aliquots of CuO nanoparticle, CuCl2.2H2O and blank

Project description:Purpose: The intensive use of metal-based nanoparticles results in their continuous release into the environment and the subsequent destroying microbial biodiversity and causing occurrence of antibiotic resistant determinants. Although previous studies have indicated that nanoparticles may be toxic to microorganisms, there is a scarcity of data available to assess the underlying molecular mechanisms of inhibitory and biocidal effects of nanoparticles on microorganisms, which is a critical gap in our comprehensive understanding of the impacts of nanoparticles on microbial ecosystems. Methods: By combining the global activated/suppressed gene profiles and detected physiological responses, we detected the microbial response to CuO NPs exposure and revealed potential mechanisms of CuO NPs on this prevalent opportunistic pathogen and environmentally relevant denitrifier. Results:Our results indicate that nanoparticles could react directly with the biological membrane, but also change gene expressions. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results indicate that CuO nanoparticles not only damaged the structure of the bacterial membrane but also entered the cells. Planktonic cells of P. aeruginosa are energetically compromised after exposure to a sublethal level (1 and 10 mg/L) of CuO nanoparticles. Respiration was likely inhibited as denitrification activity was severely depleted in terms of decreased transcript levels of most denitrification genes. In addition, and of high concern, bacteriophage genes were activated and it is speculated that phage mediated cell lysis. Meanwhile, CuO NP exposure induced significantly up-regulated expressions of metal resistance gene, resistance-nodulation-division, P-type ATPase efflux and cation diffusion facilitator transporters, which can form an integrated network controlling metals concentrations in the cytoplasm and periplasm P. aeruginosa. Conclusion: Based on our results, it is evident that the response of bacteria under the exposure of nanoparticles is very complex, though a clear and comprehensive understanding of the true mechanisms of inhibition or toxicity is still lacking. Our findings will provide insights on whole picture regarding the fundamental mechanisms of microbial susceptibility, tolerance and resistance to exposure of CuO NPs, as well highlight to re-estimate potential risks of CuO NP to public health and environment.

Project description:The objective of the study was to investigate how pristine CuO modulates allergic lung inflammation and whether surface modifications can influence its reactivity. CuO materials exacerbated the existing allergic airway inflammation by eliciting dramatic pulmonary neutrophilia. Transcriptomic analysis showed that CuO, CuO COOH and CuO NH3 commonly enriched neutrophil-related biological processes in lungs with and without the pre-existing condition. In contrast, CuO PEG had a significantly lower potential in triggering pulmonary changes revealing that surface PEGylation suppresses the effects triggered by the pristine material.

Project description:This study proposes a molecular mechanism for lung epithelial A549 cell response to copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-NPs) related to Cu ions released from CuO-NPs. Cells that survived exposure to CuO-NPs arrested the cell cycle as a result of the downregulation of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), cell division control 2 (CDC2), cyclin B1 (CCNB1), target protein for Xklp2 (TPX2), and aurora kinase A (AURKA) and B (AURKB). Furthermore, cell death was avoided through the induced expression of nuclear receptors NR4A1 and NR4A3 and growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible 45 β and γ (GADD45B and GADD45G, respectively). The downregulation of CDC2, CCNB1, TPX2, AURKA, and AURKB, the expressions of which are involved in cell cycle arrest, was attributed to Cu ions released from CuO-NPs into medium. NR4A1 and NR4A3 expression was also induced by Cu ions released into the medium. The expression of GADD45B and GADD45G activated the p38 pathway that was involved in escape from cell death. The upregulation of GADD45B and GADD45G was not observed with Cu ions released into medium but was observed in cells exposed to CuO-NPs. However, because the expression of the genes was also induced by Cu ion concentrations higher than that released from CuO-NPs into the medium, the expression appeared to be triggered by Cu ions released from CuO-NPs taken up into cells. We infer that, for cells exposed to CuO-NPs, those able to make such a molecular response survived and those unable to do so eventually died. Two-condition experiment, CuO-NPs exposured vs. non-treated cells. Hybridization: 2 replicates. Scanning: 3 replicates (Gain changed).
