Zinc oxide nanoparticles modulate the gene expression of ZnT <sub>1</sub> and ZIP <sub>8</sub> to manipulate zinc homeostasis and stress-induced cytotoxicity in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells

Abstract excerpt
Zinc ions (Zn 2+ ) are important messenger molecules involved in various physiological functions. To maintain the homeostasis of cytosolic Zn 2+ concentration ([Zn 2+ ] c ), Zrt/Irt-related proteins (ZIPs) and Zn 2+ transporters (ZnTs) are the two families of proteins responsible for decreasing and increasing the [Zn 2+ ] c , respectively, by fluxing Zn 2+ across the membranes of the cell and intracellular...
