工程纳米材料(能源管理)的亚致死暴露诱导由于DNA甲基化变化的各种细胞过程的改变。DNA甲基化变化代表了可以由传统的毒性测定法被忽视的直接和间接影响的更敏感的指纹分析,及DNA的甲基化后ENMS的构效关系的理解将打开一条新的道路为他们的安全设计。
Sublethal exposure of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) induces the alteration of various cellular processes due to DNA methylation changes. DNA methylation variations represent a more sensitive fingerprint analysis of the direct and indirect effects that may be overlooked by traditional toxicity assays, and an understanding of the structure–activity relationship of DNA methylation upon ENMs would open a new path for their safer design.
