Summary

This scoping review examines hepatotoxic mechanisms of micro- and nanoplastics in animal models, identifying oxidative stress, inflammation, lipid peroxidation, and epigenetic alterations as the primary pathways through which plastic particles damage liver tissue.

Body Systems

This project aims to synthesize existing evidence on hepatotoxic mechanisms of micro- and nanoplastics in animal models and explore implications for human health.
