ABSTRACT
The aim of the study was to examine the liver tissue damage induced by nanosized-TiO2 in mouse. The biochemical parameters of liver, namely glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase and alkaline phosphatase were enhanced approximately 18%, 35% and 69% by exposure to nanosized-TiO2, respectively. The nanosized-TiO2 accumulated in the periphery of sinusoid in liver when the ultrastructure was examined through transmission electron microscopy. Enzymes, such as superoxide dismutase, catalase and aldehyde dehydrogenase were significantly inhibited by 22%, 38% and 15%, respectively, whereas glutathione peroxidase was constant following exposure to nanosized-TiO2.
