To fully utilize this potential, the toxicity and biodistribution of pristine and surface-modified mCNTs (-OH/-COOH) should preferentially be addressed. The results of cell viability suggested that pristine mCNTs induced cell death in a concentration-dependent manner. As evidence of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), pristine mCNTs induced noticeable redox imbalance. ^99mTc tracing data suggested that the cellular uptake of pristine mCNTs posed a concentrate-dependent and energy-dependent manner <i>via</i> macropinocytotic and clathrin-dependent pathways, and the main accumulated organs were lung, liver and spleen. With OH modification, the ROS generation, MDA deposition and SOD consumption were evidently reduced compared with the pristine mCNTs at 24/48 h high-dose exposure. With COOH modification, the modified mCNTs only showed a significant difference in SOD consumption at 24/48 h exposure, but there was no significant difference in the measurement of ROS and MDA. The internalization mechanism and organ distribution of modified mCNTs were basically invariant. Together, our study provides evidence that mCNTs and the modified mCNTs all could induce oxidative damage and thereby impair cells. ^99mTc-mCNTs can effectively trace the distribution of nanotubes <i>in vivo</i>.</p>","PeriodicalId":18899,"journal":{"name":"Nanotoxicology","volume":"16 9-10","pages":"895-912"},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9094939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We assess the average as well as the individual importance of NP atomic descriptors, along with chemical properties and experimental conditions, in determining cytotoxicity endpoints for several nanomaterials. We employ a multicenter cytotoxicity nanomaterial database (12 different materials with first and second dimensions ranging between 2.70 and 81.2 nm and between 4.10 and 4048 nm, respectively). We develop a regressor model based on extreme gradient boosting with hyperparameter optimization. We employ Shapley additive explanations to obtain good cytotoxicity prediction performance.

Formation of the syncytiotrophoblast is indispensable for the acquisition of placental function, and impairment of syncytialization inevitably affects pregnancy outcomes.

Immunofluorescence staining analysis revealed that silver nanoparticles with a diameter of 10 nm (nAg10) (at 0.156 µg/mL) significantly decreased the proportion of syncytialized BeWo cells, but gold nanoparticles with a diameter of 10 nm did not. Consistently, only nAg10 (at 0.156 µg/mL) significantly suppressed forskolin-induced elevation of <i>CGB</i> and <i>SDC1</i> mRNA expression levels and human chorionic gonadotropin β production in a dose-dependent manner; these molecules are all markers of syncytialization.
