RETRACTED ARTICLE: Ameliorative role of nanocurcumin against the toxicological effects of novel forms of Cuo as nanopesticides: a comparative study
2023
Overview
Copper oxide nanoparticles (CuONPs) have a wide range of uses in agricultural applications. Nanocurcumin (NCur) acts as an antioxidant treatment. The goal of the study is to reduce the toxicity resulting from the use of CuONPs as nanopesticides on living organisms by inducing changes in the morphological shape of CuONPs or treating it with NCur. So, we induced a comparative study between three shapes of CuONPs: CuO nanosphere (CuONSp), CuO nanosheet (CuONS), and CuO nanoflower (CuONF). We characterize each nano-form by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), and Zetasizer HT device; 36 rats were divided into six groups (
n
= 6): 1st group was the control group; 2nd group received 50 mg/kg/day of NCur orally for 30 days; 3rd, 4th, and 5th groups received orally 50 mg/kg/day of CuONSp, CuONS, and CuONF, respectively, for 30 days; 6th group received 50 mg/kg/day CuONSp plus 50 mg/kg/day of NCur orally for 30 days. An elevation occurred in malondialdehyde (MDA), liver and kidney functions, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl2) by CuONSp > CuONS > CuONF, respectively. An inhibition occurred in glutathione (GSH), superoxidase (SOD) catalase (CAT), apoptotic Bax gene (Bax), histopathological, and ultrastructural alterations by CuONSp < CuONS < CuONF, respectively. NCur ameliorated these alternations. In conclusion, CuONF is a better form compared to other forms of nanopesticide in agriculture due to its lower toxicity. NCur decreased the biological alternations which induced by CuONSp due to its antioxidant and anti-apoptotic properties.
