| Abstract | Purpose. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of permeation and cytotoxicity of vanadium compounds, [VO(acac)$_{2}$], [VO(ma)$_{2}$], and vanadate. Methods. Absorptive transport were carried out in Caco-2 monolayers grown on transwell inserts. Vanadium was quantified using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). The change of Caco-2 cells in the microvilli morphology and F-actin structure was visualized by transmission electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Results. The three vanadium compounds were taken up by Caco-2 cells via simple passive diffusion. [VO(acac)$_{2}$] were mainly transcellularly transported and exhibited the highest apparent permeabilty coefficients (8.2 × 10$^{-6}$ cm$^{-1}$). The cell accumulation of [VO(acac)$_{2}$] was found to be greater than that of [VO(ma)$_{2}$], and vanadate caused much less accumulation than the other two compounds. Vanadium compounds induced intracellular reactive oxygen species, reduced the transepithelial electric resistance, caused morphological change in microvilli, and led to different perturbation of F-actin structure. Conclusions. The three compounds exhibited different permeability due to different diffusion process and cellular uptake. The toxicity of vanadium complexes on Caco-2 monolayer involved F-actin-related change of tight junction and impairment of microvilli. The toxicity was also related to elevated intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and their cellular accumulation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
