Summary
Researchers found that the surface topography of nanoplastics significantly affects their internalization and toxicity in liver cells, revealing that surface roughness and texture modulate how these particles interact with cellular systems.
Body Systems
Though hepatotoxicity induced by the ubiquitous and potentially ingested nanoplastics (NPs) has been extensively studied, limited attention has been given to the role of NPs' surface topography.
