: In recent years, the applications of nanoparticles have received a great attention due to their industrial and biomedical applications, while their beneficial effects suffer from controversial results at clinical stages. In the current study, cytotoxicity of cerium oxide (CeNP) nanoparticles (100 nm) were evaluated using mitochondria derived from wistar rat's liver. Isolated mitochondria from rat’s liver were divided into 7 groups including group 1 as control and group 2 to 7 as treatment group with different doses of CeNP (5, 10, 50, 100, 250 and 500mg/ml, respectively), for 24,48 and 72 hours. After exposure, oxidative stress biomarkers such as total ‎antioxidant capacity (TAC), lipid peroxidation (LPO), total thiol groups (TTG), catalase activity (CAT) and mitochondrial viability, were determined in isolated rat liver mitochondria. Results have shown that CeNPs increase TAC, TTG, CAT, LPO and viability of mitochondria in various exposure times and confirm antioxidant properties of CeNPs in mithocondria while mitochondria is a main source for the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

In this research, magnetic nanostructured lipid carriers (Mag-NLCs) were synthesized for curcumin (CUR) delivery. NLCs are drug-delivery systems prepared by mixing solid and liquid (oil) lipids. For preparation of NLCs, cetylpalmitate was selected as solid lipid and fish oil as liquid lipid. CUR-Mag-NLCs were prepared using high-pressure homogenization technique and were characterized by methods including X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and dynamic light scattering (DLS). The CUR-Mag-NLCs were developed as a particle with a size of 140 ± 3.6 nm, a polydispersity index of 0.196, and a zeta potential of −22.6 mV. VSM analysis showed that the CUR-Mag-NLCs have excellent magnetic properties. Release rate of the drug was higher at 42 °C than 37 °C, indicating that release of the synthesized nanoparticles is temperature-dependent. Evaluation of mitochondrial toxicity was done using the isolated rats liver mitochondria including glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), and the ferric- reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) assays to study biosafety of the CUR-Mag-NLCs. Results of In vitro study on the isolated mitochondria revealed that both CUR-Mag-NLCs and curcumin have no specific mitochondrial toxicity.

Abstract Protein-mediated B12 uptake by isolated rat liver mitochondria has been shown to be enhanced by plasma transcobalamin (TC-II) but not by salivary R binder in vitro. The process is enhanced by calcium and depends on active mitochondrial respiration. Following uptake, cyanocobalamin is converted to adenosyl and methylcobalamins and released from the mitochondria. TC-II appears to be required for both cellular and mitochondrial uptake of vitamin B12.
