Summary

Descripción general del contenido del recurso.

The cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of novel colloidal silica spheres coated with crystalline or amorphous zirconia (SiO2@ZrO2 cryst or SiO2@ZrO2 am) have been studied in a human osteosarcoma cell line (MG-63), after 24 h exposure. SiO2@ZrO2 cryst and SiO2@ZrO2 am had mean diameters of 782 ± 19 and 891 ± 34 nm, respectively. SiO2@ZrO2 cryst exposure reduced cell viability, with an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) and a decrease of the GSH/GSSG ratio. The comet and micronucleus (MN) assays detected DNA damage at 5 and 25 g/mL, respectively. SiO2@ZrO2 am induced genotoxic action only at 10 and 50 g/mL (comet and MN assays), along with a decrease of the GSH/GSSG ratio at 50 g/mL. Both particles were found inside the cells, forming vesicles; however, none of them entered the nucleus. Our findings show that crystallization of the shell of the amorphous ZrO2 increases both cytotoxicity and genotoxicity. Fil: Di Virgilio, Ana Laura.
