Summary

This study investigated a traditional Chinese medicine formula (Yishen Tongluo) for its potential to repair sperm DNA damage caused by polystyrene microplastics. Researchers found that the formula's protective mechanism may be associated with the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and the protein SPARC. The study suggests a new direction for using traditional medicine approaches to address reproductive system injury linked to microplastic exposure.

The precise mechanism by which YSTL inhibits PD-MPs DNA damage may be associated with the PI3K/Akt pathway and SPARC. It provides a new direction for using traditional Chinese medicine to prevent and repair reproductive system injury caused by MPs.
