AI summary Read the abstract
The abstract for this entry describes growing global concerns about micro- and nanoplastics and the need for better analytical methods. The title refers to an immunology study on adhesion molecules, indicating a database mismatch.
Micro-nano plastics originating from the prevalent usage of plastics have raised increasingly alarming concerns worldwide. However, there remains a fundamental knowledge gap in nanoplastics because of the lack of effective analytical ...Plastics are now omnipresent in our daily lives. The existence of microplastics (1 µm to 5 mm in length) and possibly even nanoplastics (<1 μm) has recently raised health concerns. In particular, nanoplastics are believed to be more toxic since their ...

The Immunotoxic Effects of Environmentally Relevant Micro- and Nanoplastics
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers characterized the immunotoxic effects of over 20 types of micro- and nanoplastic particles on macrophages and dendritic cells, finding that physicochemical properties such as size, shape, polymer type, and surface oxidation strongly influence immune cell responses.
Supporting information file for: Trojan Horse Effect of Biologically Aged Microplastics-An Intracellular Carrier of LPS for Licensing Noncanonical Inflammasome Activation
AI summary Read the abstract
Supporting data for a Trojan horse study showed that biologically aged microplastics—which accumulate a protein corona and adsorb lipopolysaccharide (LPS)—activate the noncanonical NLRP3/caspase-11 inflammasome pathway intracellularly, exacerbating intestinal inflammation in colitis models. This is highly significant to microplastic health research as it demonstrates that environmental aging transforms microplastics into active intracellular carriers of bacterial toxins, amplifying immune pathology beyond the particle effect alone.
