  • Descrição: Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have wide applications in the biomedical field due to their outstanding physical and chemical properties. However, the potential adverse effects and related mechanisms of IONPs in human organs, especially the lung, are still largely ignored. In this study, we found that group-modified IONPs (carboxylated, aminated and silica coated) induce slight lung cell damage (in terms of the cell cycle, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, cell membrane integrity and DNA damage) at a sublethal dosage. However, aminated IONPs could release more iron ions in the lysosome than the other two types of IONPs, but the abnormally elevated iron ion concentration did not induce ferroptosis. Intriguingly, amino-modified IONPs aggravated the accumulation of intracellular peroxides induced by the ferroptosis activator RSL3 and thus caused ferroptosis in vitro, and the coadministration of amino-modified IONPs and RSL3 induced more severe lung injury in vivo. Therefore, our data revealed that the surface functionalization of IONPs plays an important role in determining their potential pulmonary toxicity, as surface modification influences their degradation behavior. These results provide guidance for the design of future IONPs and the corresponding safety evaluations and predictions. [Display omitted]
