The ameliorative effect of selenium-loaded chitosan nanoparticles against silver nanoparticles-induced ovarian toxicity in female albino rats.
Background: Recently, silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) were shown to provoke oxidative stress through the release of reactive oxygen species and consequently induce cell damage. Selenium-loaded chitosan nanoparticles (CS-SeNPs) have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, indicating that they ameliorate Ag-NPs-induced ovarian toxicity.
Objective: This study aimed to assess how well CS-SeNPs counteract the damaging effects of Ag-NPs on the ovarian tissue of adult female albino rats.
Methods: Forty mature female albino rats were divided into four equal groups: for 60 days, Group I (control) was given 0.5 ml/kg of distilled water; Group II was given Ag-NPs orally (100 mg/kg); Group III was given Ag-NPs orally (100 mg/kg/d) plus CS-SeNPs (0.5 mg/kg/d); and Group IV was given only CS-SeNPs orally (0.5 mg/kg/d). All the ovarian tissues were removed and underwent immunohistochemical, histological, and biochemical analyses.
Results: Ag-NPs-exposed rats revealed a marked reduction in reduced glutathione (GSH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Numerous histopathological alterations were found along with a significant increase in PCNA- and Caspase-3-immunoreactive cells. Most of these alterations were successfully ameliorated by CS-SeNPs, as indicated by marked increases in GSH and SOD.
Conclusion: CS-SeNPs ameliorate the toxic effects of Ag-NPs on the ovarian tissue of adult female albino rats.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Ovarian Research is an open access, peer reviewed, online journal that aims to provide a forum for high-quality basic and clinical research on ovarian function, abnormalities, and cancer. The journal focuses on research that provides new insights into ovarian functions as well as prevention and treatment of diseases afflicting the organ.
Topical areas include, but are not restricted to:
Ovary development, hormone secretion and regulation
Follicle growth and ovulation
Infertility and Polycystic ovarian syndrome
Regulation of pituitary and other biological functions by ovarian hormones
Ovarian cancer, its prevention, diagnosis and treatment
Drug development and screening
Role of stem cells in ovary development and function.
