Multi-omics in nanoplastic research: a spotlight on aquatic life

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers reviewed how multi-omics tools — analyzing genes, proteins, and metabolites together — are revealing the molecular damage nanoplastics cause in aquatic organisms. Because aquatic life sits at the base of food chains, understanding these toxicity mechanisms helps predict risks that ultimately reach human seafood consumers.

Toxicity of nano- and microplastics on marine and freshwater fish: A multi-scale perspective from organ systems to cells

AI summary Read the abstract

This review pulls together existing studies showing that tiny plastic particles (micro- and nanoplastics) can build up in fish, damaging their gut, gills, heart, brain, and immune system by causing inflammation and cellular stress. While this research was done in fish, it matters for us too, since these plastics are widespread in water and seafood, and fish share many biological similarities with humans, meaning our bodies could face similar risks from ongoing plastic exposure.

Multi-omics analysis reveals polyethylene microplastics-induced gill damage, metabolic disruption and immune dysregulation in Lateolabrax maculatus

AI summary

Researchers exposed spotted sea bass (Lateolabrax maculatus) to dietary polyethylene microplastics and found that even moderate concentrations caused gill tissue damage, oxidative stress, and immune dysregulation by disrupting energy metabolism and NF-κB inflammatory pathways, with most effects showing partial recovery after a 14-day depuration period.
