Disruption of lipid metabolism under plastic siege: Unraveling the toxic mechanisms of microplastics and nanoplastics
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed how microplastics and nanoplastics disrupt lipid metabolism across multiple animal species, finding they inhibit digestive enzymes, alter gut microbiota, dysregulate fat storage and breakdown, and activate inflammatory signaling pathways — causing both acute and chronic metabolic damage.
Bioaccumulation and Toxic Effects of Micro- and Nanoplastics in Zebrafish: A Critical Review
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers comprehensively reviewed micro- and nanoplastic bioaccumulation and toxicity in zebrafish, finding that these particles accumulate in digestive organs, gills, liver, and brain, inducing oxidative stress, developmental delays, neurotoxicity, and transgenerational reproductive impairments that highlight broad ecological risks.
Physiological Alterations and Immune Modulation in Fish Exposed to Microplastics
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed the physiological and immunological effects of microplastic exposure in fish, finding that these particles smaller than 5 mm induce a range of biological disruptions including immune modulation, oxidative stress, and systemic health impacts with broader implications for aquatic ecosystem integrity.
Microplastics and nanoplastics in human health: a comprehensive review of exposure pathways, cellular mechanisms, and toxicological implications
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed human exposure pathways to microplastics and nanoplastics through seafood, salt, drinking water, inhalation, and skin contact, examining how these particles cross biological barriers to reach organs and trigger oxidative stress, inflammation, and endocrine disruption with poorly understood long-term consequences.
The Role of Humic Acids on the Effects of Nanoplastics in Fish
AI summary Read the abstract
Humic acids — naturally occurring organic compounds in freshwater — alter the surface properties of nanoplastics and modulate their toxicity to fish, in some cases reducing harm and in others increasing it. This finding shows that environmental context matters when assessing nanoplastic risk, as water chemistry can substantially shift biological outcomes.
