Time evolution of protein corona formed by polystyrene nanoplastics and urease
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers investigated how polystyrene nanoplastics interact with urease to form a protein corona over time, finding that the corona's composition and structure evolve dynamically, potentially altering the environmental fate and hazards of nanoplastics.
Structure of soft and hard protein corona around polystyrene nanoplastics—Particle size and protein types
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers characterized the protein corona that forms around polystyrene nanoplastics of different sizes, finding that particle size influences which proteins bind and how tightly, with implications for nanoplastic toxicity and biological uptake.
Aging Processes Dramatically Alter the Protein Corona Constitution, Cellular Internalization, and Cytotoxicity of Polystyrene Nanoplastics
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers found that aging processes such as UV and ozone exposure dramatically alter how polystyrene nanoplastics interact with blood plasma proteins, form protein coronas, and enter cells. The study suggests that environmentally aged nanoplastics may have different biological effects than pristine particles, which has important implications for accurately assessing the health risks of real-world nanoplastic exposure.
