<p>Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Induce Ferroptotic Neuronal Cell Death in vitro and in vivo</p>

Abstract

Taken together, this study not only demonstrates that pulmonary exposure of ZnONPs can induce JNK-involved ferroptotic cell death in mouse cortex and PC-12 cells, but also provides a clue that inhibition of ferroptosis by specific agents or drugs may serve as a feasible approach for reducing the untreatable neurotoxicity induced by ZnONPs.
