Anatase titanium dioxide nanoparticles (ATDNs) have emerged as a fascinating material due to their unique properties and vast potential applications. These nanoparticles are derived from the anatase form of titanium dioxide, which is known for its high photocatalytic activity, stability, and biocompatibility. As a result, ATDNs are finding widespread use in various fields, including cosmetics, healthcare, energy, and environmental remediation.

In a 2022 study published in the Journal of Hazardous Materials, scientists wanted to examine the effects of titanium dioxide as a food additive on atherosclerosis in mice. (Atherosclerosis refers to a hardening of the arteries.) Researchers fed mice 40 mg/kg of the food additive every day for 4 months, and found that it not only altered gut microbiota but also led to a significantly increased atherosclerotic lesion area, especially in animals that consumed a high-choline western diet (HCD).
