This study investigates the toxic effects of metal nanoparticles on health and the environment, focusing on their uptake and metabolism in human and fish cell models. It aims to provide insights into the mechanisms of toxicity and support risk assessments for nanoparticle exposure.
The nanotechnology industry offers many benefits to society, however its potential depends upon the knowledge of its impact on public health and the environment. NPs can enter the body bypassing epithelia, accumulating in spleen, gut, liver and brain as shown in fish as environmental species.
While the mechanism of uptake and metabolism of NPs is unknown, their size and physical characteristics suggest that they may enter the epithelia through an endocytotic mechanism.
The aim of this study is t…
