Sažetak
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are the most commonly used nanomaterials with focus on their biocidal activity commonly used for medical purposes. This study aimed to understand in vitro nanotoxicity by evaluating the effect of 5 different AgNPs (stabilized with different surface coating: sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)-sulfosuccinate (AOTAgNP), cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAAgNP), poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVPAgNP), poly-L-lysine (PLLAgNP), and bovine serum albumin (BSAAgNP)) on neural stem cells (NSC). For toxicity evaluations, cell viability and DNA damage in NSC were assessed using CCK-8 and alkaline comet assays, respectively. Significant decrease in cell viability after 24 h exposure for AOTAgNP, CTAAgNPs and PVPAgNPs was observed at 3 mg/L AgNP concentration, while PLLAgNPs and BSAAgNPs induced significant toxicity at concentration of 10 mg/L. Significant DNA damage was observed at 0.1 mg/L of BSAAgNPs, 0.5 mg/L of CTAAgNPs and PLLAgNPs, and 1 mg/L of PVPAgNPs and AOTAgNPs. Our results imply that much lower concentration of AgNPs is able to induce cyto- and genotoxicity in NSC compared to published results on other types of mammalian cells.
