Figure Lengend Snippet: ECIS measurements of cellular response to the introduction of fluorescent SMA NPs. (a) Normalized five-day real-time ECIS measurement of NIH 3T3 fibroblasts, showing real-time data of cell attachment, proliferation, and response to fluorescent SMA NPs at varying concentrations. Capacitance was recorded at 64 kHz. The dotted blue line indicates the time when the fluorescent SMA NPs were added to each well. (b) Capacitance values from NIH 3T3 cells on day five at 110 h in culture. (c) Cytotoxicity percentage of NIH 3T3 fibroblasts in response to contact with SMA NPs. (d) Normalized five-day real-time ECIS measurement of bEnd3brain epithelial cells, showing real-time data of attachment, proliferation, and response to fluorescent SMA NPs. Capacitance was recorded at 64 kHz. The dotted blue line indicates the time when the fluorescent SMA NPs were added to each well. (e) Capacitance values of bEnd3 cells on day five at 110 h in culture. (f) Cytotoxicity percentage of brain epithelial bEnd3 cells in response to contact with SMA NPs. In panels b, c, e, and f, the capacitances and cytotoxicities are compared to the negative control (brown bars). **** p < 0.0001. n = 4.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Barrier condition analysis of bENd3 brain epithelial cells after addition of SMA NPs at different concentrations. (a) Real-time ECIS resistance measurements at 4 kHz. (b) Comparison of resistance values between different experimental conditions, before adding SMA NPs on day 4, after SMA NPs addition on day 8, and after media replacement on day 10. (c) Real-time ECIS capacitance measurements at 64 kHz. (d) Comparison of normalized capacitance between different experimental conditions, before adding SMA NPs, after SMA NPs addition, and after media replacement. In panels b and d, the capacitance is compared to the negative control (brown bars). ** p < 0.0001. n = 5.
