この研究は、PC12細胞に対する超低周波磁界(MF;50Hz、400 μT)および磁気ナノ粒子(MNPs)の影響を、細胞毒性試験およびアポトーシス試験により調べた。シリカゲル被覆MNPs(MNP-SiO2;直径20 nm程度;強磁性))投与の有無、48時間のMFばく露の有無の組合せによる4群で実験し、MTT試験により細胞毒性を、アネキシンV-FITC/PI染色法によりアポトーシスを評価した。また、透過電子顕微鏡により形態学とMNP-SiO2の摂取状況を観察した。その結果、MNP-SiO2は、量依存的に細胞生存率を減少させた;MFは、MNP-SiO2の濃度の増加につれて細胞生存率を低下させた;MNP-SiO2単独ばく露ではアポトーシスを生じなかった;一方、MFばく露下ではMNP-SiO2の濃度の増加につれてアポトーシス細胞の割合が増加した;MNP-SiO2は細胞に取り込まれ、細胞の形態を若干変化させた、と報告している。

To study the effects of extremely low frequency magnetic fields and magnetic nanoparticles via cytotoxicity and apoptosis assays on PC12 cells.
PC12 cells were treated with magnetic nanoparticles (MNP-SiO2; 0, 20 and 100 µg/ml) with or without magnetic field exposure for 48 h.

The magnetic nanoparticles reduced the cell viability in a dose-dependent manner. The magnetic field exposure also reduced the cell viability with increasing concentrations of the magnetic nanoparticles. The magnetic nanoparticles alone did not cause apoptosis in PC12 cells; however, the proportion of apoptotic cells increased significantly under magnetic field exposure and increasing doses of nanoparticles. The magnetic nanoparticles could be ingested and then cause a slight change in cell morphology.
The authors conclude that combined exposure of magnetic fields and magnetic nanoparticles resulted in remarkable cytotoxicity and increased apoptosis in PC12 cells. The results suggest that magnetic field exposure could strengthen the magnetic field of magnetic nanoparticles, which may enhance the bioeffects of extremely low frequency magnetic fields.
