Abstract:
With the wide use of nanomaterials in biomedicine,materials,chemicals and other fields,their environmental exposure and cellular toxicity have come to the attention of researchers as a new research area in the field of nanotoxicology and nanomedicine. Researches on the toxic effects of nanomaterials have not only provided of a theoretical basis for safety evaluation of nanomaterials ,but also promoted the have applications of nanotechnology. Numerous studies have revealed cell death is closely associated with the toxicity of nanomaterials. In this paper,we elaborated on the roles of three key cell death modes in nanotoxicity,including autophagy,apoptosis,and necrosis. Furthermore,the pos?sible mechanisms involved in these three modes were explored. All this will provide reference for safety evaluation of nanomaterials.
