Engineered nanoparticles (NPs) are being developed and incorporated in a number of commercial products raising the potential of human exposure during manufacture, use and disposal. Although data about the potential toxicity of some NPs have been reported, validated simple assays are lacking for predicting their in vivo toxicity. To evaluate new response-metrics based on chemical and biological activity of NPs for screening assays that can be used to predict NP toxicity in vivo. Two cell-free and two cell-based assays were evaluated for their power in predicting in vivo toxicity of eight distinct particle types with widely differing physico-chemical characteristics. The cell-free systems comprised fluorescence- and electron spin resonance-based assays of oxidant activity. The cell-based systems also used electron spin resonance as well as luciferase reporter activity to rank the different particle types in comparison to benchmark particles of low and high activity. In vivo experiments evaluated acute pulmonary inflammatory responses in rats. Endpoints in all assays were related to oxidative stress and responses were expressed per unit NP surface area to compare the results of the different assays. Results indicate that NPs are capable of producing reactive species, which in biological systems can lead to oxidative stress. Copper NPs had the greatest activity in all assays, while TiO2 and gold NPs generally were the least reactive. Differences in the ranking of NP activity among the assays were found when comparisons were based on measured responses. However, expressing the chemical (cell-free) and biological (cells; in vivo) activity per unit particle surface area showed that all in vitro assays correlated significantly with in vivo results (R>0.81), with the cellular assays correlating best (R>0.87). Data from this study indicate that it is possible to predict acute in vivo inflammatory potential of NPs with cell-free and cellular assays by using NP surface area-based dose and response metrics, but that a cellular component is required to achieve a higher degree of predictive power.
