Summary

Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside, a plant pigment, reduced the toxicity and cellular accumulation of polystyrene nanoplastics in model organisms by enhancing mitochondrial energy metabolism and boosting the activity of ABC transporter proteins that export nanoplastics from cells.

Polymers

C3G reduces polystyrene nanoplastic toxicity to different models, by which C3G-mediated energy metabolism improved the activity of ABC transporters and cellular efflux of polystyrene.
