Evaluation of DNA interaction, genotoxicity and oxidative stress induced by iron oxide nanoparticles both in vitro and in vivo: attenuation by thymoquinone.

Abstract:

:Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) are known to induce cytotoxicity in various cancer cell lines through the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, the studies on its potential to induce toxicity in normal cell lines and in vivo system are limited and ambiguity still exists. Additionally, small molecules are known to interact with the DNA and cause damage to the DNA. The present study is designed to evaluate the potential interaction of IONPs with DNA along with their other toxicological effects and subsequent attenuation by thymoquinone both in vitro (primary lymphocytes) and in vivo (Wistar rats). IONPs were characterized by TEM, SEM-EDS, and XRD. The results from DNA interaction studies showed that IONPs formed a complex with DNA and also got intercalated between the base pairs of the DNA. The decrease in percent cell viability of rat's lymphocytes was observed along with an increase in ROS generation in a dose-dependent manner (50, 100, 200, 400 and 800 μg/ml of IONPs). The genetic damage in in vivo might be due to the generation of ROS as depletion in anti-enzymatic activity was observed along with an increase in lipid peroxidation in a dose-dependent manner (25, 50, 100 mg/kg of IONPs). Interestingly, supplementation of thymoquinone in combination with IONPs has significantly (P < 0.05) attenuated the genetic and oxidative damage in a dose-dependent manner both in vitro and in vivo. It can be concluded that thymoquinone has the potential to attenuate the oxidative stress and genetic toxicity in vitro and in vivo.
