Silica nanoparticle-induced toxicity in zebrafish embryos affected expression of 2515 genes. Pathway analysis and Signal-net analysis indicated that the gap junction, vascular smooth muscle contraction, and metabolic pathways, apoptosis, the MAPK signaling pathway, the calcium signaling pathway and the JAK-STAT signaling pathway were the most prominent significant pathways in SiNP-induced toxicity in zebrafish embryos.
