In the recent advancement of nanotechnology, silver nanoparticles have been used as chemical catalysis, in medical and electronic devices and as antimicrobial agents. On the other hand, the cytotoxicity of silver nanoparticles have been increasingly reported in many organisms [1]; for instance, apoptosis with DNA degradation in human alveolar epithelial cells [2], a decrease in dopamine production in PC-12 (cultured neuronal phenotype) [3], a decrease in mitochondrial functions in a rat liver derived cell [4], an antimicrobial agent against Escherichia coli [5], and bio-concentration in Psudomonas aeroginosa [6]. For the analysis of molecular events associated with silver cytotoxicity, rat alveolar macrophages were selected as a model assay system system and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were found as one of the potent candidates. The production of ROS was nanoparticle-size dependent and oxidative stress was considered as a predominant mechanism of the cytotoxicity [7]. In this study, we used Paramecium, a free-living unicellular eukaryotic organism in fresh water, as a bioassay system for silver cytotoxicity. The Paramecium system (P system) provides several advantages, 1) P system enables us to examine single cell behavior involving excitable membrane and ciliary movement, 2) P system enables us to examine cytotoxicity by application to the inside of a cell, 3) P system has various types of cellular functions giving a stable and sensitive bioassay. In this study, we will demonstrate that silver nanoparticles produce silver ions which associate with the main cause of cytotoxicity and, in addition, the discovery of some proteins which decrease the cytotoxicity of silver ions.

One important source of stem cells is mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) [2]. MSC can be easily collected from bone marrows of patients [3]. MSC is chemotactic to damaged organs and tissues which often secret cytokines and chemokines [4]. Subsequently, MSC can settle and multiply in the damaged zones (namely, by homing phenomenon), and often heal the damaged or inflamed organ and tissues [5]. This phenomenon has, however, not well been understood, yet. The fluorescent nature of the cells from green fluorescent protein (GFP)-transgenic mice facilitate the use in many kinds of cell transplantation experiments [6]. Immunitycompromised mice (nude mice) have been used as host animal so that the relation between transplanted GFP-transgenic mouse cells and host nude mouse body could be clarified [7].

The diameter up to tens of nanometer and length vary substantially up to tens of micrometer [1]. Rising interest among scientists and industrialists are related to their extraordinary properties in mechanical, electronic and biomedical applications [2]. Recently by the large production of MWNTs, it may have potential release, environmental fate and ecological risk which correlated with plant species, type of media, treatment system, dose, exposure time, and properties of carbon nanotubes [3, 4]. Consequently, it deserves further attention. Instead of preliminary screening of several plants species as previously reported [5], we further investigate lettuce (Lactuca sativa) regarding the potential effect of MWNTs on plants conducted under hydroponic conditions. Concentration of MWNTs and CB used in this study is varied by 0, 125, 250, 500 and 1000 mg/L. It is important to show the significant effect of MWNTs on the seedling stage of lettuce for the understanding of toxic symptoms on root and leaves. In this report we also identified the reactive oxygen species (ROS) which may responsible for the phytotoxicity of MWNTs.
