Journal ArticleDOI
Penetration and Toxicity of Nanomaterials in Higher Plants
Giuseppe Chichiriccò,Anna Poma +1 more
TL;DR: Current knowledge on the ways in which NMs penetrate plant organs and interact with cells are examined, with the aim of shedding light on the reactivity of NMs and toxicity to plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
In Vitro Genotoxicity of Polystyrene Nanoparticles on the Human Fibroblast Hs27 Cell Line.
Anna Poma,Giulia Vecchiotti,Sabrina Colafarina,Osvaldo Zarivi,Massimo Aloisi,Lorenzo Arrizza,Giuseppe Chichiriccò,Piero Di Carlo +7 more
TL;DR: This work defines PNP toxicity resulting in DNA damage and underlines the emerging problem of polystyrene nanoparticles, which extends transversely from the environment to humans; further studies are needed to clarify the internalization process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-inflammatory properties of drugs from saffron crocus
TL;DR: Therapeutic uses of saffron principles with particular regard to those exhibiting antioxidant and thus anti-inflammatory features are discussed and at high doses (more than 5 g/die day), it should be avoided in pregnancy owing to its uterine stimulation activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Karyotype and Meiotic Behaviour of the Triploid Crocus Sativus L.
TL;DR: The high percentage of trivalents observed at metaphase I together with the karyotype configuration confirm autotriploidy in Crocus sativus, and some considerations about the presence of one unique chromosome in the kARYotype and about the origin of triploidsy are presented.
Book ChapterDOI
Transgenerational effects of NMs.
TL;DR: It is recommended that future research explore the interactions between nanomaterials and transgenerational matter on a molecular level to understand the behaviour of nanoparticles inside the cells but also their genotoxic and epigenetic effects.
