Recently we proposed the possibility of orally exposed nanoparticles (NPs) to alter metabolite homeostasis by changing metabolism pathways, in addition to intestinal damages, but relatively few studies investigated the changes of metabolite profiles in multi-organs. This study investigated the influences of orally exposed SiO2 NPs on lipid profiles in gut-liver axis. To this end, we treated mice with 16, 160 or 1600 mg/kg bodyweight SiO2 NPs via intragastric route. After 5 days exposure (once a day), we observed that SiO2 NPs induced minimal p...
