Comparison of Genotoxicity and Cytotoxicity of Polyvinyl Chloride and Poly(methyl methacrylate) Nanoparticles on Normal Human Lung Cell Lines

Abstract: High concentrations of micro- and nanoparticles of common plastic materials present in the environment are causing an adverse health impact on living organisms. As a model study, here we report the synthesis and characterization of luminescent polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and poly­(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanoparticles and investigate the interaction with normal human lung fibroblast cells (IMR 90) to understand the uptake, translocation, and toxicity of PVC and PMMA nanoparticles. The synthesized particles ar… Show more

“…This is consistent with findings from previous studies on other NPs with higher particle concentrations and higher cellular uptake. 10,33,34,47,48 On the time dependence, the intracellular CDs-PEI content increases over time and consistently reaches the maximum at around 4 h in all of the cell lines and then declines dramatically in HeLa, A549, and MDA-MB-468 (Figure 1a,b,e) but not in BEAS-2B and A431 cells (Figure 1c,d), where the content remains at a similar level or decreases slightly. The use of higher CDs-PEI concentration has little effect on the time for the intracellular content to reach the maximum, which is different from some findings on other NPs in the literature.…”

“…3,7−9 Nevertheless, there have been studies demonstrating that the toxicity of NPs is positively correlated to their contents in cells. 10,11 NPs trapped in cells for a long period of time may induce various adverse effects, such as cell growth inhibition, asymmetric intercellular metastasis, and cytotoxicity. 10,12−14 The amount of NPs in cells depends not only on their cellular uptake but also on their exocytosis and the cell division.…”

“…Fluorescence was also absent inside the proteinaceous oviducal sac (Figure E), which suggests that it can physically exclude aggregates of fluorescent PMMA nanoparticles. In related experiments, human cells that were exposed to polymer particles showed discrete fluorescence from particles inside the cells. , Such results show that the observed fluorescence was localized within PMMA nanoparticle aggregates, hence indicating that the encapsulated fluorophore did not leach from the PMMA nanoparticles.…”
