Effect of Chronic Inhalation of Silicon Dioxide Nanoparticles (Tarkosil 25) On the Expression of Key Genes of the Serotonergic System in the Mouse Brain
The chronic inhalation of silicon dioxide nanoparticles does not activate nonspecific immunity in the brain, but it exerts contrasting genotype-specific effects on the expression of the 5-HT1A receptor in the hippocampus. Mice were housed in Optimice cages. Keywords: Silicon dioxide nanoparticles, specific pathogen-free mice, SPF, Tarkosil nanoaerosol, 5-HT1A receptor, environmental toxicity, Balb/c, C57Bl/6, Optimice, mouse, mice
