Assessing in vitro cellular responses to molecular events is an effective mean to elucidate the toxicological behavior of the ultrafine nanoparticles. In this study, we utilized the DNA microarray analysis technique to determine the gene expression profiles of the human keratinocyte HaCaT cells exposed to anatase titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles of different (7 nm, 20 nm and 200 nm) average diameters without illumination Cells were incubated for 24 h with TiO2 particles, which were dispersed in the Culture medium and size-fractionated such that the concentration of titanium in all the fractionated samples was nearly equivalent According to the cluster analysis, only genes involved in the 'inflammatory response' and 'cell adhesion', but not the genes involved in 'oxidative stress' and 'apoptosis', were over-represented among the genes that were tip-regulated in HaCaT cells After 24 h exposure 10 ultrafine 7 nm TiO2 particles. we observed altered expression levels of genes involved in matrix metalloproteinase activity (MMP-9 and MMP-10) and cell adhesion (fibronectin FN-1, integrin ITGB-6, and mucin MUC-4). These results suggest that the ultrafine TiO2 Particles without illumination have no significant impact on ROS-associated oxidative damage. but affect the cell-matrix adhesion in keratinocytes for extracellular matrix remodeling (C) 2009 Elsevier Ireland Ltd All rights reserved.
