Abstract
The impacts of zinc oxide nanoparticles on embryonic development following oocyte stage exposure are unknown and the underlying mechanisms are sparsely understood. In the current investigation, intact nanoparticles were detected in ovarian tissue in vivo and cultured cells in vitro under zinc oxide nanoparticles treatment. Zinc oxide nanoparticles exposure during the oocyte stage inhibited embryonic development. Notably, in vitro culture data closely matched in vivo embryonic data, in that the impairments caused by Zinc oxide nanoparticles treatment passed through cell generations; and both gamma-H2AX and NF-kappaB pathways were involved in zinc oxide nanoparticles caused embryo-toxicity. Copper oxide and silicon dioxide nanoparticles have been used to confirm that particles are important for the toxicity of zinc oxide nanoparticles. The toxic effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles emanate from both intact nanoparticles and Zn2+. Our investigation along with others suggests that zinc oxide nanoparticles are toxic to the female reproductive system [ovaries (oocytes)] and subsequently embryo-toxic and that precaution should be taken regarding human exposure to their everyday use.

Comparative toxicities of silver nitrate, silver nanocolloids, and silver chloro-complexes to Japanese medaka embryos, and later effects on population growth rate. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2018; 233:1155-1163. [PMID: 29037497 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2017.10.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2017] [Revised: 10/04/2017] [Accepted: 10/07/2017] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
Fish embryo toxicology is important because embryos are more susceptible than adults to toxicants. In addition, the aquatic toxicity of chemicals depends on water quality. We examined the toxicities to medaka embryos of three types of silver-AgNO3, silver nanocolloids (SNCs), and silver ions from silver nanoparticle plates (SNPPs)-under three pH conditions (4.0, 7.0, and 9.0) in embryo-rearing medium (ERM) or ultrapure water. Furthermore, we tested the later-life-stage effects of SNCs on medaka and their population growth. "Later-life-stage effects" were defined here as delayed toxic effects that occurred during the adult stage of organisms that had been exposed to toxicant during their early life stage only. AgNO3, SNCs, and silver ions were less toxic in ERM than in ultrapure water. Release of silver ions from the SNPPs was pH dependent: in ERM, silver toxicity was decreased owing to the formation of silver chloro-complexes. SNC toxicity was higher at pH 4.0 than at 7.0 or 9.0. AgNO3 was more toxic than SNCs. To observe later-life effects of SNCs, larvae hatched from embryos exposed to 0.01 mg/L SNCs in ultrapure water were incubated to maturity under clean conditions. The mature medaka were then allowed to reproduce for 21 days. Calculations using survival ratios and reproduction data indicated that the intrinsic population growth rate decreased after exposure of embryos to SNC. SNC exposure reduced the extinction time as a function of the medaka population-carrying capacity.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (SNPs) are widely used in a variety of biomedical and consumer products as an antimicrobial additive. The present study was conducted to evaluate the impacts of low-dose SNPs on intestinal physiology of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) for assessing its apparent environmental risk due to extensive commercial use. SNPs were synthesized by a chemical reduction method yielding 1-27 nm oval shaped particles. Early fingerlings of tilapia were exposed with two sublethal concentrations (0.8 and 0.4 mg L(-1)) of SNPs for twenty one days period and its impact on the intestinal physiology was evaluated by histochemistry, catalase expression, glutamate dehydrogenase activity, SDS-PAGE and gut micro flora count. Histological analysis showed thinning of intestinal wall, swelling on mucosal layer and immunohistochemical assay exhibited an enhanced catalase expression in SNPs treated fishes. Gut microflora count elicited a dose-dependent depletion and a variable SDS-PAGE profile followed by significant (P < 0.05) elevations in glutamate dehydrogenase activity in SNPs-treated fishes. This study was designed to provide a better understanding of environmentally acceptable, dose-dependent SNPs delivery in fishes and to formulate guidelines in aquatic toxicology.
