Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have been used for a variety of neurobiological applications, although little is yet known as to the fate of such particles in brain cells. To address these questions, we have exposed oligodendroglial OLN-93 cells to dimercaptosuccinate-coated IONPs. Treatment of the cells strongly increased the specific cellular iron content proportional to the IONP concentrations applied (0-1000μM total iron as IONPs) up to 300-fold, but did not cause any acute cytotoxicity or induce oxidative stress. To investigate the potential of OLN-93 cells to liberate iron from the accumulated IONPs, we have studied the upregulation of the iron storage protein ferritin and the cell proliferation as cellular processes that depend on the availability of low-molecular-weight iron. The presence of IONPs caused a concentration-dependent increase in the amount of cellular ferritin and partially bypassed the inhibition of cell proliferation by the iron chelator deferoxamine. These data demonstrate that viable OLN-93 cells efficiently take up IONPs and suggest that these cells are able to use iron liberated from accumulated IONPs for their metabolism. |
