With these tools we have studied the impact of nanoparticle shape on cellular physiology. Gold (Au) nanoparticles coated with CTAB were synthesized and studied in two distinct shapes: Spheres with a diameter of (43 +/-+/- 4) nm and rods with a size of (38 +/-+/- 7) nm xx (17 +/-+/- 3) nm. Dose-response experiments were accompanied by conventional cytotoxicity tests as well as fluorescence and dark-field microscopy to visualize the intracellular particle distribution. We found that spherical gold nanoparticles with identical surface functionalization are generally more toxic and more efficiently ingested than rod-shaped particles. We largely attribute the higher toxicity of CTAB-coated spheres as compared to rod-shaped particles to a higher release of toxic CTAB upon intracellular aggregation."],["dc.description.sponsorship","German Science Foundation (DFG) [JA 963/10-1]"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3109/17435390.2010.528847"],["dc.identifier.isi","000290936000013"],["dc.identifier.pmid","21050076"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/22954"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Taylor & Francis Ltd"],["dc.relation.issn","1743-5404"],["dc.relation.issn","1743-5390"],["dc.title","Toxicity of gold-nanoparticles: Synergistic effects of shape and surface functionalization on micromotility of epithelial cells"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Hence, there is a strong need for techniques revealing the interaction between particles and cells as well as quantifying the uptake at the same time. For that reason, herein optical dark-field microscopy is used in conjunction with transmission electron microscopy to investigate the uptake of gold nanoparticles into epithelial cells with respect to shape, stabilizing agent, and surface charge. The number of internalized particles is strongly dependent on the stabilizing agent, but not on the particle shape. A test of metabolic activity shows no direct correlation with the number of internalized particles. Therefore, particle properties besides coating and shape are suspected to contribute to the observed toxicity."],["dc.description.sponsorship","DFG [SPP 1313]"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1002/smll.201200853"],["dc.identifier.isi","000312214400019"],["dc.identifier.pmid","22888068"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/24670"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Wiley-v C H Verlag Gmbh"],["dc.relation.issn","1613-6810"],["dc.title","A New Approach to Assess Gold Nanoparticle Uptake by Mammalian Cells: Combining Optical Dark-Field and Transmission Electron Microscopy"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Besides the remarkable progress in molecular genomics- or proteomics-based diagnostics, there is a great demand for in vitro biosensor devices that allow rapid and selective detection of the invasive properties of tumor cells. Here, the classical cancer cell motility in vitro assays for migration and invasion relying on Boyden chambers are compared to a real-time biosensor that analyzes the dynamic properties of adherent cells electro-acoustically with a time resolution on the order of seconds. The sensor relies on the well-established quartz crystal microbalance technique (QCM) that measures the shift in resonance frequency and damping of an oscillating quartz crystal when adsorption, desorption or changes in material properties close to the quartz surface occur. In addition, the QCM is capable of detecting the rather subtle fluctuations of the cell bodies as an indicator for their micromotility. QCM-based micromotility readings of three different cancer cell lines (HT-29, HSC-4, FaDu) are compared with the well-known electrical cell-substrate impedance sensing (ECIS) revealing collective stochastic motion that corresponds to the malignancy of the cells."],["dc.description.sponsorship","MAINZ"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1039/b920815a"],["dc.identifier.isi","000275225800007"],["dc.identifier.pmid","20473392"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/7211"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/21053"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Royal Soc Chemistry"],["dc.relation.issn","1757-9694"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.title","Dynamics of human cancer cell lines monitored by electrical and acoustic fluctuation analysis"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

We studied the response of epithelial FaDu monolayers cultured on gold electrodes of an acoustic resonator (quartz crystal microbalance, QCM) and impedance sensor (electric cell-substrate impedance sensing, ECIS) to externally applied chemical stimuli interfering with cytoskeleton organization. Epithelial cell motility of confluent monolayers is characterized by subtle cell shape changes and variations in the cell-substrate as well as cell-cell distance without net directionality of individual cells. The impact of small molecules such as cytochalasin D, phalloidin, and blebbistatin as well as paclitaxel, nocodazol, and colchicin on actin and microtubules organization was quantified by conventional sensors' readouts and by comparing the noise pattern of the signals which is attributed to cellular dynamics. The responsiveness of noninvasive and label-free techniques relying on cellular dynamics is compared to classical viability assays and changes of the overall impedance of ultrasmall electrodes or acoustic loads of a thickness shear mode resonator. Depending on the agent used, a distinct sensor response was found, which can be used as a fingerprint of the cellular response. Cytoskeletal rearrangements and nuclear integrity were corroborated by fluorescence microscopy and correlated to the readouts of QCM and ECIS."],["dc.description.sponsorship","graduate school of excellence MAINZ; DFG [SPP 1313, SFB 937]"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1021/tx200115q"],["dc.identifier.isi","000295058900009"],["dc.identifier.pmid","21815656"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/22162"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Amer Chemical Soc"],["dc.relation.issn","1520-5010"],["dc.relation.issn","0893-228X"],["dc.title","Dynamic Changes of Acoustic Load and Complex Impedance as Reporters for the Cytotoxicity of Small Molecule Inhibitors"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Upon observation of cell growth for three days by live cell imaging using optical dark field microscopy, it was found that all particles supported cell adhesion while no directed cell migration and no significant particle internalization occurred. Concerning cell adhesion and spreading as compared to cell growth on bare substrates after 3 days of incubation, a reduction by 45% and 95%, respectively, for the surfactant particle coating was observed, whereas the amino-terminated polymer induced a reduction by 30% and 40%, respectively, which is absent for the carboxy-terminated polymer. Furthermore, interface-sensitive impedance spectroscopy (electric cell-substrate impedance sensing, ECIS) was employed in order to investigate the micromotility of cells added to substrates decorated with various amounts of surfactant-coated particles. A surface density of 65 particles/mu m(2) (which corresponds to 0.5% of surface coverage with nanoparticles) diminishes micromotion by 25% as compared to bare substrates after 35 hours of incubation. We conclude that the surface coating of the gold nanorods, which were applied to the basolateral side of the cells, has a recognizable influence on the growth behavior and thus the coating should be carefully selected for biomedical applications of nanoparticles."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft [SPP1313]"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3762/bjnano.5.257"],["dc.identifier.fs","613591"],["dc.identifier.isi","000348934300001"],["dc.identifier.pmid","25671143"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/12180"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/31470"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Beilstein-institut"],["dc.relation.issn","2190-4286"],["dc.rights.access","openAccess"],["dc.title","Mammalian cell growth on gold nanoparticle-decorated substrates is influenced by the nanoparticle coating"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
