Since iron concns. are extremely low in body fluids, there is potential that iron-contg. nanoparticles may influence the ability of bacteria to scavenge iron for growth, affect virulence and inhibit antimicrobial peptide (AMP) function.  In this study, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA01) and AMPs were exposed to iron oxide nanoparticles, hematite (α-Fe2O3), of different sizes ranging from 2 to 540 nm (2 ± 1, 43 ± 6, 85 ± 25 and 540 ± 90 nm) in diam.  Here we show that the greatest effect on bacterial growth, biofilm formation, and AMP function impairment is found when exposed to the smallest particles.  These results are attributed in large part to enhanced dissoln. obsd. for the smallest particles and an increase in the amt. of bioavailable iron.  Furthermore, AMP function can be addnl. impaired by adsorption onto nanoparticle surfaces.  In particular, lysozyme readily adsorbs onto the nanoparticle surface which can lead to loss of peptide activity.  Thus, this current study shows that co-exposure of nanoparticles and known pathogens can impact host innate immunity.  Therefore, it is important that future studies be designed to further understand these types of impacts.

In particular, carbon black nanoparticles are found in many different environmental exposures.  Macrophages take up inhaled nanoparticles and respond via release of inflammatory mediators and in some cases cell death.  Based on new data, we propose that exposure of macrophages (both a macrophage cell line and primary human alveolar macrophages) to carbon black nanoparticles induces pyroptosis, an inflammasome-dependent form of cell death.  Exposure of macrophages to carbon black nanoparticles resulted in inflammasome activation as defined by cleavage of caspase 1 to its active form and downstream IL-1β release.  The cell death that occurred with carbon black nanoparticle exposure was identified as pyroptosis by the protective effect of a caspase 1 inhibitor and a pyroptosis inhibitor.  These data demonstrate that carbon black nanoparticle exposure activates caspase 1, increases IL-1β release after LPS priming, and induces the proinflammatory cell death, pyroptosis.  The identification of pyroptosis as a cellular response to carbon nanoparticle exposure is novel and relates to environmental and health impacts of carbon-based particulates.
