TiO2 NP exposure impeded placental development in mice. a, b Pathological examination revealed that TiO2 NP exposure decreased the placental areas and labyrinth areas. c TiO2 NP exposure led to a dose-dependent increase in vacuoles in the labyrinth. Black arrows indicate the labyrinth vacuoles. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. n = 3 placentas from 3 mice. *p < 0.05 as compared with the normal control (NC)
