Summary

Researchers used multi-omics analysis to reveal that microplastics cause size-dependent toxicity and injury to vascular endothelial cells both in vivo and in vitro, identifying the vascular system as a previously understudied target of microplastic exposure.

Body Systems
Study Type In vivo

Although microplastic (MP) pollution has recently garnered increasing attention, few studies have examined the effects of these small particles on the vascular system.
