Effect of High Iodine Level on Proliferation of Cultured Fibroblast / 环境与健康杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effects of iodine on the proliferation activity of fibroblasts at different doses. Methods The cultured fibroblasts were treated with different dose iodine(100 ?g/L, 500 ?g/L, 1 000 ?g/L, 3 000 ?g/L, 5 000 ?g/L, 7 000 ?g/L, 9 000 ?g/L, 11 000 ?g/L)for 24 h and observe the morphology of fibroblast. MTT colorimetry was used to detect the fibroblast proliferation activity. Results Iodine could significantly increase the fibroblast proliferation activity at certain range of concentration (7 000 ?g/L). The proliferation activity was highest from 5 000 ?g/L to 7 000 ?g/L, the differences were significant compared with the iodine free control. Conclusion Iodine, the exposure level is 7 000 ?g/L.
