Abstract

The biological effects of rare earth elements and rare earth nanoparticles have aroused an extensive interest during the past few years. In vitro culture conditions, we reported the impact of nano Eu2O3 and Eu3+ on the HepG2 cells using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), flow cytometry and laser scanning confocal microscopy. The results suggested that the nano Eu2O3 at low concentrations does not make an obvious impact on cell growth whereas it can suspend cell division, and the percentage of cells in G2/M phase increase gradually and lead to necrosis at higher concentrations (≥600 μg·mL-1). In addition, nano Eu2O3 can be internalized by live HepG2 cells. Eu3+ at low concentrations (≤100 μmol·L-1) can slightly inhibit the growth of HepG2 cells by arresting the ratio of G0/G1 phase cells and triggerring apoptosis.
