Binucleated cell formation and oncogene expression after particulate matter exposure is preceded by microtubule disruption, dysregulated cell cycle, prolonged mitosis, and septin binding

Rok Podlipec, Aleksandar Sebastijanović, Hilary Cassidy…·Janez Štrancar

This study shows that TiO2 nanotubes and MWCNTs induce different cancer-related changes in vitro, with TiO2 nanotubes disrupting microtubules and inducing binucleated cells, while MWCNTs activate the STING pathway.

From the Roundabout of Molecular Events to Nanomaterial-Induced Chronic Inflammation Prediction

Hana Kokot, Boštjan Kokot, Aleksandar Sebastijanović…·Janez Štrancar

The paper predicts nanomaterial-induced chronic inflammation using in vitro measurements and in silico modeling by identifying mechanisms of nanomaterial cycling and quarantining in lung cells.
