We analyzed gene expression in THP-1 cells exposed to metal-based nanomaterials (NMs) [TiO (NM-100), ZnO (NM-110), SiO (NM-200), Ag (NM-300 K)]. A functional enrichment analysis of the significant differentially expressed genes (DEGs) identified the key modulated biological processes and pathways. DEGs were used to construct protein-protein interaction networks. NM-110 and NM-300 K induced changes in the expression of genes involved in oxidative and genotoxic stress, immune response, alterations of cell cycle, detoxification of metal ions and regulation of redox-sensitive pathways. Both NMs shared a number of highly connected protein nodes (hubs) including CXCL8, ATF3, HMOX1, and IL1B. NM-200 induced limited transcriptional changes, mostly related to the immune response; however, several hubs (CXCL8, ATF3) were identical with NM-110 and NM-300 K. No effects of NM-100 were observed. Overall, soluble nanomaterials NM-110 and NM-300 K exerted a wide variety of toxic effects, while insoluble NM-200 induced immunotoxicity; NM-100 caused no detectable changes on the gene expression level.
我们分析了暴露于基于金属的纳米材料(NM)[TiO(NM-100)、ZnO(NM-110)、SiO(NM-200)、Ag(NM-300K)]的 THP-1 细胞中的基因表达。对显著差异表达基因(DEG)的功能富集分析确定了关键的调节生物过程和途径。使用 DEG 构建蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用网络。NM-110 和 NM-300K 诱导与氧化和遗传毒性应激、免疫反应、细胞周期改变、金属离子解毒和氧化还原敏感途径调节相关的基因表达变化。这两种 NM 都有许多高度连接的蛋白质节点(枢纽),包括 CXCL8、ATF3、HMOX1 和 IL1B。NM-200 引起的转录变化有限,主要与免疫反应有关;然而,一些枢纽(CXCL8、ATF3)与 NM-110 和 NM-300K 相同。NM-100 没有观察到效果。总的来说,可溶性纳米材料 NM-110 和 NM-300K 产生了各种各样的毒性作用,而不溶性 NM-200 引起了免疫毒性;NM-100 对基因表达水平没有造成可检测到的变化。
