Advances in endocrine toxicity of nanomaterials and mechanism in hormone secretion disorders

Abstract: The size of nanoparticles is about 1-100 nm. People are exposed to nanoparticles in environmental pollutants from ancient times to the present. With the maturity of nanotechnology in the past two decades, the production of manufactured nanomaterials is rapidly increasing and they are used in a wide range of aerospace, medicine, food, and industrial applications. However, both natural and manufactured nanomaterials have been proved to pose a threat to diverse organs and systems. The endocrine system is critical… Show more

“…Therefore, further studies on the immune interactions and long-term effects of Nanomaterials of very small size can be potentially harmful when penetrating physiological barriers, including endocrine disruption, reduced fertility and metabolic diseases. 169 It is also worth mentioning that the techniques for determining the toxicity of nanomaterials are not yet sufficiently mature. This may be attributed to the fact that when nanomaterials react with biological substances in vivo, their own properties may change, and there is a great deal of uncertainty about their final form and the toxicity they will manifest.…”

“…help the plants to off-set the adverse effects of abiotic stresses including DS [15,16]. For the SP, different NPs such as gold (Au), silver (Ag), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc oxide (ZnO), zinc (Zn), carbon-based NPs fullerene and carbon nanotubes have been used to mitigate the harmful effects of DS [15,17].…”

“…Nowadays, many TiO 2 ‐based photocatalyst materials and products are based on Ag‐TiO 2 11–13 . Human will inevitably be exposed to Ag‐TiO 2 nanocomposites through inhalation because of their potential wide application in environment purification and surface self‐cleaning 1,2,14 . However, what happens to the toxicity of photocatalysts after silver doping is still unknown.…”

“…[11][12][13] Human will inevitably be exposed to Ag-TiO 2 nanocomposites through inhalation because of their potential wide application in environment purification and surface self-cleaning. 1,2,14 However, what happens to the toxicity of photocatalysts after silver doping is still unknown. Researchers optimized the preparation conditions based on maximizing catalytic activity while ignoring the changes in toxicity.…”
