Silver Impairs Neurodevelopment: Studies in PC12 Cells
BACKGROUND Exposure to silver is increasing because of silver nanoparticles in consumer products. OBJECTIVES AND METHODS Many biological effects of silver entail actions of Ag+ (monovalent silver ions), so we used neuronotypic PC12 cells to evaluate the potential for silver to act as a developmental neurotoxicant, using chlorpyrifos (CPF), a pesticide known to evoke developmental neurotoxicit...
متن کاملMono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate impairs neurodevelopment: inhibition of proliferation and promotion of differentiation in PC12 cells.
Di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (DEHP) is the most widely used plasticizers in daily-life products. In this study we evaluated the influence of mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP), the active metabolite of DEHP, on the neurodevelopment in vitro. After neuronotypic PC12 cells were exposed to MEHP (0.25, 2.5, 25, and 250 μM), the effects of which on cell proliferation and differentiation were invest...
متن کاملSilver Nanoparticles Compromise Neurodevelopment in PC12 Cells: Critical Contributions of Silver Ion, Particle Size, Coating, and Composition
BACKGROUND Silver exposures are rising because of the increased use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in consumer products. The monovalent silver ion (Ag+) impairs neurodevelopment in PC12 cells and zebrafish. OBJECTIVES AND METHODS We compared the effects of AgNPs with Ag+ in PC12 cells for neurodevelopmental end points including cell replication, oxidative stress, cell viability, and differen...
متن کاملChlorpyrifos Affects Phenotypic Outcomes in a Model of Mammalian Neurodevelopment: Critical Stages Targeting Differentiation in PC12 Cells
The organophosphate insecticide chlorpyrifos (CPF) adversely affects mammalian brain development through multiple mechanisms. To determine if CPF directly affects neuronal cell replication and phenotypic fate, and to identify the vulnerable stages of differentiation, we exposed PC12 cells, a model for mammalian neurodevelopment, to CPF concentrations spanning the threshold for cholinesterase in...
متن کاملDifferentiation of PC12 Cells
CLK is a dual-specificity protein kinase capable of phosphorylating serine, threonine, and tyrosine residues. We have investigated the action of CLK by establishing stable PC12 cell lines capable of inducibly expressing CLK. Expression of CLK in stably transfected PC12 cells mimicked a number of nerve growth factor (NGF)-dependent events, including the morphological differentiation of these cel...
