Molecular regulatory networks of microplastics and cadmium mediated hepatotoxicity from NAFLD to tumorigenesis via integrated approaches
This study mapped out how microplastics and the toxic metal cadmium work together to damage the liver, tracing a progression from fatty liver disease to cirrhosis and eventually liver cancer. Cadmium activates genes linked to cell growth and tumor formation, while microplastics trigger cell death pathways related to inflammation. When combined, the two pollutants accelerate liver damage more than either one alone, raising concerns about real-world exposure where people encounter both simultaneously.
A computational framework for multi-scale data fusion in assessing the associations between micro- and nanoplastics and human hepatotoxicity
Researchers developed a computational toxicology framework integrating multi-source data and network analysis to map associations between micro- and nanoplastics and hepatotoxicity, identifying key molecular pathways through which MNPs may damage the liver, offering a scalable alternative to traditional in vivo testing.
Exposure to microplastics and liver oncogenesis: A comprehensive review on molecular mechanisms and pathogenic pathways
Researchers reviewed mechanisms by which microplastic exposure may promote liver cancer, identifying oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammatory signaling, and epigenetic disruption as key pathways, while noting that microplastics can also carry heavy metals and organic pollutants that synergistically amplify hepatotoxic and carcinogenic risk.
