Research Article: Silver Nanoparticles Cause Neural and Vascular Disruption by Affecting Key Neuroactive Ligand-Receptor Interaction and VEGF Signaling Pathways
Introduction:
Silver nanoparticles (AgNP) are widely used in commercial products, including antimicrobial agents, laundry additives, paints, textiles, and personal care products, and are increasingly detected in aquatic ecosystems. AgNP products can also release monovalent silver, silver ions and nanoparticles into aquatic systems, which negatively impacts organisms. Previous studies have indicated that silver particles can cross the human placental barrier and accumulate in the fetus, and cross the chorionic pores/membranes in…
