DNA migration in the heart tissues, 1 h after the intravenous administration of ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (USPIO), diesel exhaust particles (DEP) or saline (control) in mice. Images illustrating the quantification of the DNA migration by the Comet assay under alkaline conditions, in control (b), USPIO (c–e) or DEP (f). *P < 0.001 compared with the corresponding saline-treated group. Data are mean ± SEM (n = 5)
