However, despite the wide array of common applications, their pathogenetic role was also suggested under certain conditions (e.g. pulmonary neoplasias and lung fibrosis). From a dermatological point of view, it is also of great importance that TiO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> also serves as a physical photoprotective agent in sunscreens and is widely used in various cosmetic products. However, the effect of TiO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> on human cutaneous functions is still unknown. Therefore, in the current study, we investigated the <jats:italic>in vivo<\/jats:italic> penetration of TiO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> via human skin transplanted to immunodeficient mice and, furthermore, we measured the <jats:italic>in vitro<\/jats:italic> effects of nanoparticles on various functional properties of numerous epidermal and dermal cells in culture. Hereby, using various nuclear microscopy methods, we provide the first evidence that TiO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> nanoparticles <jats:italic>in vivo<\/jats:italic> do not penetrate through the intact epidermal barrier. However, we also report that TiO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>, when exposed directly to cell cultures <jats:italic>in vitro<\/jats:italic>, exerts significant and cell\u2010type dependent effects on such cellular functions as viability, proliferation, apoptosis and differentiation. Therefore, our novel findings will hopefully inspire one to systemically explore in future, clinically oriented trials whether there is indeed a risk from micronized TiO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\u2010containing products on skin with an impaired stratum corneum barrier function.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0625.2007.00683.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,2,28]],"date-time":"2008-02-28T07:46:07Z","timestamp":1204184767000},"page":"659-667","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":106,"title":["Investigation
