Abstract
⺠Human amniotic (WISH) cells exposed to TiO2-NPs demonstrated cytotoxic response. ⺠TiO2-NPs treated cells exhibited decline in catalase and glutathione enzymes. ⺠The treated cells show a significant increase in intracellular ROS generation. ⺠TiO2-NPs treated cells also demonstrated the formation of DNA double strand breaks. ⺠With increasing concentration of TiO2-NPs, WISH cells showed G2/M cell cycle arrest.
