Compared with the larger nanoparticles, 13 nm AgNPs significantly inhibit the migration and invasiveness of lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells, induce elevated reactive oxygen species and lead to NF-κB directed cellular apoptosis.RSC advances21134-21138https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC9066013biostudies-literatureSize dependent anti-invasiveness of silver nanoparticles in lung cancer cells.PMC9066013Jiang XLQue YMTan QYFan XQLin XJHu PPTong XYfalseSize dependent anti-invasiveness of silver nanoparticles in lung cancer cells.The molecular mechanism of cancer cell death caused by silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) of different sizes is investigated.
