Testing Strategies of the In Vitro Micronucleus Assay for the Genotoxicity Assessment of Nanomaterials in BEAS-2B Cells

Tereza Cervena, Andrea Rossnerova, Tana Zavodna, Jitka Sikorova, Kristyna Vrbova, Alena Milcova, Jan Topinka, Pavel Rossner

Summary: The evaluation of genotoxicity induced by nanomaterials in bronchial epithelial cells using different variants of the micronuclei assay showed that the DNA damage level is affected by the selected methodological approach. Transmission electron microscopy demonstrated the impact of cytochalasin-B on the transportation of NMs into cells, while dynamic light scattering measurement revealed the behavior of NMs in culture media. The genotoxic potential of various TiO2 and Ag particles differed, with the application of cytochalasin-B tending to increase the percentage of aberrant cells.

Genotoxicity testing of nanomaterials

Robert Landsiedel, Naveed Honarvar, Svenja Berit Seiffert, Barbara Oesch, Franz Oesch

Summary: Nanomaterials have unique advantages but may also have adverse effects on humans. However, traditional genotoxicity tests may not be suitable for nanomaterials and modifications are needed. This review critically examines available genotoxicity tests for nanomaterials and discusses their relative usefulness, as well as the open questions and further needs in adapting these tests.

Screening the micronucleus assay for reliable estimation of the genotoxicity of graphene and other 2D materials

S. Garcia-Carpintero, V. Jehova Gonzalez, J. Frontinan-Rubio, A. Esteban-Arranz, E. Vazquez, M. Duran-Prado

Summary: In recent years, the genotoxicity of graphene-related materials (GRMs) and other 2D materials has been evaluated using different models. The OECD TG 487 in vitro micronucleus (MNu) test is commonly used to assess the genotoxicity of nanomaterials (NMs). However, the nature of NMs interferes with the standard MNu process, requiring adaptations. The study proposes a modified in vitro MNu test with improvements to accurately test the genotoxicity of NMs, demonstrating risks associated with graphene oxide (GO) and boron nitride (hBN).

Nanomaterials Induced Genotoxicity in Plant: Methods and Strategies

Marta Marmiroli, Nelson Marmiroli, Luca Pagano

Summary: Research on plant-nanomaterial interactions has focused on their effects at physiological and molecular levels, particularly regarding abiotic and oxidative stress. However, little is known about interactions between engineered nanomaterials and plant genetic material. This mini review examines the methods and evidence reported in the literature to assess genotoxicity induced by nanomaterial exposure in plants, and reviews established and potential strategies for evaluating nanomaterial genotoxicity in plants.

A critical review on genotoxicity potential of low dimensional nanomaterials

Iruthayapandi Selestin Raja, Jong Ho Lee, Suck Won Hong, Dong-Myeong Shin, Jong Hun Lee, Dong-Wook Han

Summary: Low dimensional nanomaterials (LDNMs) have larger surface area to volume ratio and quantum confinement effect compared to high dimensional nanomaterials, exhibiting beneficial biomedical properties but potentially causing cytotoxicity, carcinogenicity, and genotoxicity. Therefore, studying the genotoxicity of LDNMs is crucial in understanding their impact on human health.

The application of existing genotoxicity methodologies for grouping of nanomaterials: towards an integrated approach to testing and assessment

Rachel Verdon, Vicki Stone, Fiona Murphy, Emily Christopher, Helinor Johnston, Shareen Doak, Ulla Vogel, Andrea Haase, Ali Kermanizadeh

Summary: The incorporation of nanomaterials in consumer products has proven valuable, but their unique physicochemical properties can pose hazards. Due to the large number of nanomaterials available, risk assessment on an individual basis is not feasible, and alternative methods such as grouping are necessary. A three-tiered testing strategy is proposed to determine the similarity of nanomaterials and understand their effects on DNA.

High-Throughput Screening Platform for Nanoparticle-Mediated Alterations of DNA Repair Capacity

Sneh M. Toprani, Dimitrios Bitounis, Qiansheng Huang, Nathalia Oliveira, Kee Woei Ng, Chor Yong Tay, Zachary D. Nagel, Philip Demokritou

Summary: The potential genotoxic effects of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) on DNA repair pathways have been investigated using a fluorescence multiplex-host-cell reactivation (FM-HCR) assay. Results showed that some ENMs may enhance DNA repair capacity while others suppress it. This method can be a valuable part of a multitier, in vitro hazard assessment of ENMs, providing insights into the interplay between ENM properties, DNA repair efficiency, and genomic stability.

Individual and binary exposure of embryonic zebrafish (Danio rerio) to single-walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes in the absence and presence of dissolved organic matter

Xibo Lu, Zhuang Wang

Summary: This study investigated the potential ecological risk of a mixture of different nanostructured carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to zebrafish embryos. The results showed that the embryos were more resistant to mixed-type CNTs compared to single-type CNTs, but this resistance decreased in the presence of dissolved organic matter (DOM). The mixed-type CNTs increased the antioxidant capacity of the embryos but also caused oxidative damage. Transcriptome sequencing analysis revealed that the mixed-type CNTs significantly altered gene expression and affected cellular processes. DOM influenced the activation of the antioxidant defense system and gene expression.

Multiparametric in vitro genotoxicity assessment of different variants of amorphous silica nanomaterials in rat alveolar epithelial cells

Fatima Brandao, Carla Costa, Maria Joao Bessa, Vanessa Valdiglesias, Bryan Hellack, Andrea Haase, Sonia Fraga, Joao Paulo Teixeira

Summary: This study assessed the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of different-sized and surface-modified amorphous silica nanomaterials on rat alveolar epithelial cells. The results showed that variants with larger surface areas had higher cytotoxic potential, SiO2_40 induced significant DNA damage, and all tested variants increased gamma-H2AX levels. This study supports the use of multiparametric approaches to improve understanding of nanomaterial mechanisms and hazard prediction.

In Vitro Co-Exposure to CeO2 Nanomaterials from Diesel Engine Exhaust and Benzo(a)Pyrene Induces Additive DNA Damage in Sperm and Cumulus Cells but Not in Oocytes

Martina Cotena, Melanie Auffan, Virginie Tassistro, Noemie Resseguier, Jerome Rose, Jeanne Perrin

Summary: Exposure to combusted CeO2 NMs or BaP resulted in significantly higher DNA damage in all cell types considered, while co-exposure to CeO2 NMs-BaP mixture induced additive DNA damage in sperm and cumulus cells. The potential protective effects of cumulus cells on oocytes and the efficient DNA damage repair system of oocytes compared to cumulus and sperm cells may explain the lack of additive effect observed in rat oocytes.

Summary: This study conducted biomarker analysis to characterize occupational exposure to Cr(VI). The results showed significantly increased genotoxicity and oxidative stress levels in workers exposed to Cr(VI), despite low levels of exposure. Unexpectedly, workers from within the company also displayed DNA and chromosomal damage. The study highlights the need for re-evaluation of occupational exposure limits and better protection measures.
