Zinc oxide nanoparticles modulate the gene expression of ZnT1 and ZIP8 to manipulate zinc homeostasis and stress-induced cytotoxicity in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells

Zinc ions (Zn2+) are important messenger molecules involved in various physiological functions. To maintain the homeostasis of cytosolic Zn2+ concentration ([Zn2+]c), Zrt/Irt-related proteins (ZIPs) and Zn2+ transporters (ZnTs) are the two families of proteins responsible for decreasing and increasi...
