https://www.selleckchem.com/pharmacological_MAPK.html Nano-SiO2 is increasingly used in diagnostic and biomedical research because of its ease of production and relatively low cost and which is generally regarded as safe and has been approved for use as a food or animal feed ingredient. Although recent literature reveals that nano-SiO2 may present toxicity and DNA damage, however, the underlying mechanism remains poorly understood. Since in previous studies, we found that nano-SiO2 treatment down-regulated the expression of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases-1 (PARP-1), a pivotal DNA repair gene, in human HaCaT cells and PAPR-1 knockdown can aggravate DNA damage induced by nano-SiO2. Therefore, we speculate whether PARP-1 overexpression can protect DNA from damage induced by nano-SiO2. However, our data demonstrated that overexpression of PARP-1 in HaCaT cells slightly enhanced the cellular proliferation of undamaged cells, when compared with both empty vector control cells and parental cells, but had drastic consequences for cells treated with nano-SiO2. The PARP-1 overtransfected cells were sensitized to the cytotoxic effects and DNA damage of nano-SiO2 compared with control parental cells. Meanwhile, flow cytometric analysis of nano-SiO2 stimulated poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis revealed consistently larger fractions of cells positive for this polymer in the PARP-1 overexpression cells than in control clones. Combining our previous research on PARP-1 knockdown HaCaT cells, we hypothesize that an optimal level of cellular poly(ADP-ribose) accumulation exists for the cellular recovery from DNA damage.Toxicities linked with Benzo (a) pyrene B[a]P exposure, particularly in liver and kidney have been reported in both animals and humans. Taurine (2-aminoethane sulfonic acid) is an intracellular β-amino acid reported to elicit hepatorenal protective functions. However, the modulatory effect of taurine on hepatorenal toxicity associated with exposure to B[a]P has not been repo
