AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers assessed the molecular and biochemical effects of polyethylene microplastic exposure in albino mice, finding dose-dependent toxicity across multiple organ systems, with measurable alterations in liver enzymes, oxidative stress markers, and blood cell parameters consistent with systemic health impacts.
Cellular and Animal Toxicities of Micro- and Nanoplastics
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed evidence from cell and animal studies on the toxic effects of micro- and nanoplastics, finding that these particles can cause inflammation, oxidative stress, and organ damage in laboratory models, raising concern about what chronic low-level human exposure might mean for long-term health.
Co-exposure of polyethylene terephthalate micro- and nanoplastics with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances triggers immune dysregulation, apoptotic activation, and neurotoxicity
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers exposed zebrafish larvae to combined polyethylene terephthalate microplastics and PFOA and found that co-exposure triggered oxidative stress, immune dysregulation, neurological impairment, and metabolic disruption, with gene expression changes indicating additive toxicity beyond either contaminant alone.
