Zinc oxide nanoparticles selectively induce apoptosis in human cancer cells through reactive oxygen species

BACKGROUND: Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) have received much attention for their implications in cancer therapy. It has been reported that ZnO NPs induce selective killing of cancer cells. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms behind the anticancer response of ZnO NPs remain unclear. MET...
