Heparin-binding growth factor 1 induces the formation of organoid neovascular structures in vivo

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 1990

Summary

This study highlights the health concerns raised by nanoplastics, which are smaller than 1 micrometer and can cross biological barriers more readily than larger microplastics. Limited analytical capabilities for detecting nanoplastics are identified as a major obstacle to understanding their environmental and health impacts.

Study Type In vivo

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 ...
