High-throughput transcriptomics reveals uniquely affected pathways: AgNPs, PVP-coated AgNPs and Ag NM300K case studies

ABSTRACT: Understanding the mode of action of nanomaterials (NMs) aids in improving predictions and environmental risk assessment. In the present study, a high-throughput (HTP) microarray was used to study Enchytraeus crypticus gene expression. Four Ag materials (Ag NM300K, PVP-coated AgNPs, AgNPs, and AgNO3) were tested at reproduction effect concentrations, EC20 and EC50, to anchor gene expression responses to higher effect level. The results showed that while PVP-AgNPs and AgNPs had similar responses, Ag NM300K caused effects via a differentiated transcriptomic profile, with uniquely affected processes (e.g. transcytosis). For the AgNPs, the EC50 negatively affected apoptosis, which can lead to accumulation of abnormal cells and cause apical damage (reproduction). Mechanisms which are known to be related to Ag toxicity and which were observed here for the various Ag forms included apoptosis regulation, cell redox homeostasis, impairment of energy production and response to DNA damage. This HTP genomic tool enabled discrimination between Ag materials, which is not possible via standard tests (i.e. survival and reproduction endpoints). Moreover, gene expression analysis provided information regarding the mechanisms of toxicity of NMs and the pathways uniquely affected by NMs. An adverse outcome pathway (AOP) was drafted for the first time for Ag NMs; this AOP can and should be used as a basis for further research.

Multiomics assessment in Enchytraeus crypticus exposed to Ag (nano)materials (Ag NM300K and AgNO 3 )

Project description:Silver nanomaterials (AgNMs) are broadly used in many products and also rate among the most studied nanoscaled materials. Their ecotoxicological impact in soil invertebrates has been covered, mostly using standard testing, where endpoints like survival and reproduction are assessed. The underlying molecular mechanisms have been assessed to a much less extent. Hence, we here assessed differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) and metabolites (DEMs) by high-throughput (HTP) techniques (HPLC-MS/MS with tandem mass tags for proteome analysis, as well as reversed-phase (RP)- or hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) with mass spectrometric detection for metabolome analysis. The standard soil model Enchytraeus crypticus was exposed to Ag NM300K and soluble AgNO3, at the reproduction EC20 and EC50, in a time series of 0, 7, and 14 days. The impact was clearly larger after 14 days. Ag NM300K caused more upregulated DEPs/DEMs, and more so at the EC20, compared to the EC50, whereas AgNO3 caused a dose response increase of DEPs/DEMs. Similar pathways were activated, although often via opposite regulation (up vs down) of DEPs hence dissimilar mechanisms underlie the apical impact. Affected pathways include e.g. energy metabolism transport proteins, detoxifying enzymes, histidine (e.g. neurotransmission by gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)) and lipid metabolism. Uniquely affected by AgNO3 were catalase, malate dehydrogenase and ATP-citrate synthase, and by Ag NM300K were heat shock proteins (HSP70) and ferritin. The gene expression-based data in Adverse Outcome Pathway (AOP) was confirmed and additional key events were added. Evidences support that toxicity of Ag NM increases in longer-term exposure.

Toxicogenomic Responses of Nanotoxicity in Daphnia magna Exposed to Silver Nitrate and Coated Silver Nanoparticles

Project description:Applications for silver nanomaterials in consumer products are rapidly expanding, creating an urgent need for toxicological examination of the exposure potential and ecological effects of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The integration of genomic techniques into environmental toxicology has presented new avenues to develop exposure biomarkers and investigate the mode of toxicity of novel chemicals. In the present study we used a 15k oligonucleotide microarray for Daphnia magna, a freshwater crustacean and common indicator species for toxicity, to differentiate between particle specific and ionic silver toxicity and to develop exposure biomarkers for citrate-coated and PVP-coated AgNPs. Gene expression profiles revealed that AgNO3 and AgNPs have distinct expression profiles suggesting different modes of toxicity. However, the gene expression profiles of the different coated AgNPs were similar revealing similarities in the cellular effects of these two particles. Major biological processes disrupted by the AgNPs include protein metabolism and signal transduction. In contrast, AgNO3 caused a downregulation of developmental processes, particularly in sensory development. Metal responsive and DNA damage repair genes were induced by the PVP AgNPs, but not the other treatments. In addition, two specific biomarkers were developed for the environmental detection of PVP AgNPs; although further verification under different environmental conditions is needed. We exposed Daphnia magna to the 1/10 LC50 and LC25 of citrate coated and PVP-coated Ag nanoparticles and Ag+ as AgNO3 for 24-h. For each exposure condition, we performed 6 replicate exposures with 5 individuals in each. All exposures were compared to a unexposed laboratory control.

Gene expression data in mouse liver following exposure to silver nanoparticles

Project description:We used microarrays to determine transcptional responses to silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in the mouse liver following oral ingestion. Liver is a major target organ for AgNP accumulation after oral or intravenous exposure. Given that physicochemical properties of AgNPs such as surface coating may influence transcriptional responses to exposure, we evaluated AgNPs with two different surface coatings such as citrate (cit) and polyvinylpirrolidone (PVP). We identified common and unique mRNA and lncRNA expression profiles for cit-AgNPs and PVP-AgNPs. PVP-AgNPs induced a more robust transctiptional response characterized by a 2-fold higher number of differentially expressed mRNAs and lncRNAs.

mRNA and microRNA microarray analysis on human Jurkat T cells exposed to silver nanoparticles and silver ions

Project description:To identify genes and pathways involved in AgNPs and Ag ion toxicity, mRNA microarray analysis was conducted on human Jurkat T cells. The results indicate that more DEGs were induced by AgNPs than by Ag ion and AgNPs induced gene expression were not clustered with control and Ag ion induced ones. DEG analysis indicated that metallothionein (MT) 2A, 1H, 1F, and 1A and endonucleases G like 1 (ENDOGL1) were upregulated by AgNPs exposure more than 2 folds compared to control. Jurkat T cells were exposed to 0.2 mg/L of AgNPs and Ag ions for 24 h. After treatment, total RNA was extracted and microarray was conducted on control, AgNPs treated and Ag ion treated Jurktat T cells. Microarray analysis were performed in triplicate. Jurkat T cells were exposed to 0.2 mg/L of AgNPs and Ag ions for 24 h. After treatment, total RNA was extracted and mi RNA microarray was conducted on control, AgNPs treated and Ag ion treated Jurktat T cells.

Exposure to different nickel nanoparticles and nickel salt: gene expression profile in Enchytraeus crypticus

Project description:The effect of nanomaterials (NMs) is less understood in light of the implemented and existing methodologies for regular chemicals. To understand the mode of action of NMs is one of the alternatives to improve predictions and environmental risk assessment (ERA). In the present work the high-throughput gene expression tool (4x44K microarray for Enchytraeus crypticus) was used to investigate the mechanisms activated by Ni exposure. Ni nanoparticles (Ni-NPs) were investigated together with Ni-salt (NiNO3). Testing was done based on reproduction effect concentrations (EC20, EC50) using 3 and 7 days exposure periods.

Mechanisms of (photo)toxicity of TiO2 nanomaterials (NM103, NM104, NM105): using high-throughput gene expression in Enchytraeus crypticus

Project description:Titanium dioxide (TiO2) based nanomaterials (NMs) are among the most produced NMs worldwide. When irradiated with light, particularly UV, TiO2 is photoactive, a property that is explored for several purposes. There is an increasingly number of reports on the negative effects of photoactivated TiO2 to non-target organisms. We have here studied the effect of a suite of reference type TiO2 NMs i.e. NM103, NM104, NM105 and compared these to the Bulk) with and without UV radiation to the oligochaete Enchytraeus crypticus. High-throughput gene expression was used to assess the molecular mechanisms, while also anchoring it to known effects at organism level (i.e., reproduction). Results showed that the photoactivity of TiO2 (UV exposed) played a major role in enhancing TiO2 toxicity, activating transcription of oxidative stress, lysosome damage and apoptosis mechanisms. For non-UV activated TiO2, where toxicity at organism level (reproduction) was lower, results showed the potential for long-term effects (i.e., mutagenic and epigenetic). NM specific mechanisms were identified: NM103 affected transcription and translation, NM104_UV negatively affected reproductive system/organs; and NM105_UV activated superoxide anion response. Results provided mechanistic information for UV-related phototoxicity of TiO2 materials and evidences of the potential long-term effects.

Exposure to different copper forms – nanoparticles, nanowires, salt and field aged: gene expression profiling in Enchytraeus crypticus

Project description:The testing of NMs under the currently available standard toxicity tests does not cover many of the NMs specificities. One of the current recommended approaches forward lays on understanding the mechanisms of action as these can help predicting long term effects and safe-by-design production. Copper nanomaterials (Cu-NMs) usage has been highly increasing with the concern in terms of exposure, effect and associated risks. In the present study we used the high-throughput gene expression tool developed for Enchytraeus crypticus (44Kx4 Agilent microarray) to study to the effect of exposure to several copper forms. The copper treatments include two NMs (spherical and wires) and two copper-salt treatments (CuNO3 spiked and Cu field historical contamination). Testing was done based on reproduction effect concentrations (EC20, EC50) using 3 and 7 days exposure periods.

Toxicogenomic analysis of ionic silver and silver nanoparticles on the fathead minnow and implications to human health

Project description:Nanoparticles are compounds of emerging concern with largely unknown risks for human and ecological health. It is crucial to evaluate their potential biological impact to prevent unintended adverse effects on human health and the environment. We analyzed the transcriptional effects of polyvinylpyrrolidone-coated silver nanoparticles (PVP-AgNPs) and silver nitrate (AgNO3) on the fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) to understand their potential toxicity and adverse outcomes. We also tested the feasibility of the fathead minnow as an alternative species to elucidate potential adverse effects on humans. Fathead minnow females were exposed to either 4 µg/L of AgNO3 or 70 µg/L of PVP-AgNPs for 96h. Microarray analyses were performed on liver and brain. Functional analysis identified potential toxicity pathways and molecular initiating events (MIEs) that were confirmed with functional assays. Data suggested that AgNO3 and PVP-AgNPs had both common and distinct transcriptional effects. The nanoparticles were linked to neurotoxicity and oxidative stress, and identified as a dopamine receptor antagonist. Silver nitrate was also identified as a potential neurotoxicant and was confirmed as adrenergic and cannabinoid receptors antagonist. While silver nitrate and PVP-AgNPs were both potential neurotoxicants, they appeared to act through different MIEs. Fathead minnow is a promising alternative species to elucidate potential adverse effects of relevance to human health.
