Low doses of TiO2-polyethylene glycol nanoparticles stimulate proliferation of hepatocyte cells

This paper describes the effect of low concentrations of 100 nm polyethylene glycol-modified TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2-PEG NPs) on HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Proliferation of HepG2 cells increased significantly when the cells were exposed to low doses (<100 μg ml–1) of TiO2-PEG NPs. The...
