Summary
The probiotic strain Lactiplantibacillus plantarum ZP-6 mitigated polystyrene nanoplastic-induced liver injury in an animal model through multiple mechanisms including toxin binding, barrier enhancement, and anti-inflammatory activity, suggesting probiotics as a potential strategy for reducing nanoplastic health impacts.
These results elucidate a multifaceted probiotic mechanism for NPs detoxification, providing a promising translational strategy to counteract nanoplastic-related health hazards.
