Although the mechanisms underlying cytotoxicity are not fully understood, accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative damage is considered to be a likely contributing factor. Methods: Human lung carcinoma cells, A549, and human fetal lung fibroblasts, MRC-5 were used to assess the cytotoxicity of SWCNT in the presence and absence of a redox status regulator, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), via the MTT assay. Results: SWCNT induced a nearly three-fold greater loss of viability in A594 vs. MRC-5 cells at ≤250 μg/ml. SWCNT cytotoxicity at higher concentrations was similar for both cell lines, while NAC alone was non-toxic. The cytotoxicity of SWCNT (250 μg/ml) in combination with NAC to A549 cells was significantly decreased at the lowest NAC concentration (1.5 μg/ml), and was similar to NAC treatment alone at that concentration. Higher concentrations of NAC in combination with SWCNT (250 μg/ml) resulted in increased cytotoxicity in both A549 and MRC-5 cells. Conclusion: A549 malignant lung cells are more susceptible to low concentrations of SWCNT vs. normal lung cells, and low concentrations of N-acetylcysteine appear to be cytoprotective, possibly due to its antioxidant properties. © 2013, Oncology Institute of Vojvodina, Sremska Kamenica. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/30581 | ISSN: | 0354-7310 | DOI: | 10.2298/AOO1302059J |
