With increasing air pollution, silica nanoparticles (SiNPs), as a main inorganic member of PM2.5, have gained increasing attention to its reproductive toxicity. Most existing studies focused on the acute exposure, while data regarding the chronic effect of SiNPs on reproduction is limited. Therefore, this study was designed to evaluate the chronic toxicity of SiNPs on spermatocyte cells. The cells were continuously exposed to SiNPs for 1, 10, 20 and 30 generations at dose of 5 μg/ml SiNPs for 24 h per generation after attachment. The results showed that with the increasing generations of the exposure, SiNPs decreased the viability of spermatocyte cells, induced apoptosis and increased the level of reactive oxygen species in spermatocyte cells. Moreover, SiNPs increased the protein expression of GRP-78, p-PERK, IRE1α, ATF6 and Cleaved caspase-3 in spermatocyte cells, suggesting that SiNPs improved unfolded protein response (UPR) and apoptosis. The present results indicated that the long-term and low-dose exposure to SiNPs could induce apoptosis by triggering ROS-mediated UPR in spermatocyte cells. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
