Transcriptomic analysis of mouse lung tissue exposed to two multiwalled carbon nanotubes (NRCWE-26 and NM-401)


ABSTRACT: Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are extensively produced and used in composite materials and electronic applications, thus increasing risk of worker and consumer exposure. MWCNTs are an inhomogeneous group of nanomaterials that exist in various lengths, shapes and with different metal compositions, which makes hazard evaluation difficult. However, several studies suggest that length plays an important role in the toxicity induced by MWCNTs. How the length influences toxicity at the molecular level is yet to be characterized. We used high-content genomics tools to compare pulmonary responses after exposure to a short, entangled MWCNT to the pulmonary responses after exposure to a long, stiffer MWCNT at the global transcriptomic level. Female C57BL/6 mice were exposed by single intratracheal instillation to 18, 54 or 162 M-BM-5g/mouse of a short MWCNT (NRCWE-26 (NC-7000), 847M-BM-1102 nm in length) or long MWCNT (NM-401 (CP-0006-SG), 4048M-BM-1366 nm in length). Lung tissues were harvested 24 h, 3 d and 28 d after exposure. This experiment examined the pulmonary transcriptional response of female C57BL/6 mice exposed to NRCWE-26, a short multi-walled carbon nanotube, and NM-401, a long multi-walled carbon nanotube, at three doses: D1 (18 M-NM-

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are an inhomogeneous group of nanomaterials that vary in lengths, shapes and types of metal contamination, which makes hazard evaluation difficult. Here we present a toxicogenomic analysis of female C57BL/6 mouse lungs following a single intratracheal instillation of 0, 18, 54 or 162 μg/mouse of a small, curled (CNT(Small), 0.8 ± 0.1 μm in length) or large, thick MWCNT (CNT(Large), 4 ± 0.4 μm in length). The two MWCNTs were extensively characterized by SEM  ...[more]
