Histological And Ultrastructural Study Of Silver Nanoparticles Toxicity And The Possible Protective Effect Of Vitamin C On Submandibular Salivary Glands Of Albino Rats, Mohamed Shamel, Dalia Riad, Mahmoud Al Ankily Apr 2021

Histological And Ultrastructural Study Of Silver Nanoparticles Toxicity And The Possible Protective Effect Of Vitamin C On Submandibular Salivary Glands Of Albino Rats, Mohamed Shamel, Dalia Riad, Mahmoud Al Ankily

Introduction: Despite silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) beneficial effect in many fields, it has been shown that AgNPs can induce toxic effects. Cytotoxic effect of AgNPs is related to the increased release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which may lead to cell death. Natural antioxidant scavengers like vitamin C have the capacity to bind and neutralize ROS thus having a vital role in cellular defense against oxidative stress. Objective: The objective of the current study was to assess the cytotoxic impact of AgNPs on the submandibular salivary glands of Albino rats and to reveal the potential antioxidant influence of vitamin C to …

Recently Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are widely used as in manufacturing of filters to purify drinking water, as a part of surgical prosthesis, splints, dental alloys and most importantly in the medical field as a bactericidal, fungicidal and as a therapeutic agent. Although these widely usage of AgNPs, can induce toxicity. to evaluate the protective role of vitamin Eon the induced silver nanoparticles toxicity on filiform and circumvallate tongue papillae of albino rats. twenty-eight male albino rats weighing 200-250 grams were divided into; the control and the experimental groups, which is subdivided into, subgroup I receiving AgNPs and subgroup II receiving …
