Toxicity of ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) to A549 cells and A549 epithelium in vitro: Interactions with dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC)
چکیده انگلیسی


- DPPC increased hydrodynamic size, Zeta potential and solubility of ZnO NPs.
- ZnO NPs induced cytotoxicity to A549 cells and A549 epithelium associated with increased intracellular Zn ions.
- A549 epithelium was more resistant to ZnO NP exposure compared with A549 cells.
- DPPC with ZnO NP exposure induced a higher release of LDH and IL-6 compared with ZnO NPs alone.

Once inhaled, nanoparticles (NPs) will first interact with lung surfactant system, which may influence the colloidal aspects of NPs and consequently the toxic potential of NPs to pulmonary cells. In this study, we investigated the effects of dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC), the major component in lung surfactant, on stability and toxicity of ZnO NPs. The presence of DPPC increased the UV-vis spectra, hydrodynamic size, Zeta potential and dissolution rate of ZnO NPs, which indicates that DPPC might interact with NPs and affect the colloidal stability of NPs. Exposure to ZnO NPs induced cytotoxicity associated with increased intracellular Zn ions but not superoxide in A549 cells. In A549 epithelium model, exposure to ZnO NPs induced cytotoxicity and decreased the release of interleukin 6 (IL-6) without a significant effect on epithelial permeability rate. Co-exposure of A549 cells or A549 epithelium model to DPPC and ZnO NPs induced a higher release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) compared with the exposure of ZnO NPs alone. We concluded that the presence of DPPC could influence the colloidal stability of ZnO NPs and increase the damage of NPs to membrane probably due to the increased positive surface charge.
