ClearFood-derived cyanidin-3-O-glucoside reverses microplastic toxicity via promoting discharge and modulating the gut microbiota in mice
Researchers found that cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G), a naturally occurring anthocyanin compound found in many fruits and vegetables, helped reduce the harmful effects of polystyrene microplastics in mice. C3G supplementation promoted the excretion of microplastics, reduced tissue accumulation, and alleviated oxidative stress and inflammation caused by the particles. The study also showed that C3G helped restore healthy gut microbiota that had been disrupted by microplastic exposure.

Modulation of Gut Microbial Metabolism by Cyanidin-3-O-Glucoside in Mitigating Polystyrene-Induced Colonic Inflammation: Insights from 16S rRNA Sequencing and Metabolomics
A natural plant compound called cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G), found in red bayberry and other berries, reduced colon inflammation caused by polystyrene microplastic exposure in mice. C3G worked by reshaping the gut bacteria community and restoring healthy levels of anti-inflammatory signaling molecules. This suggests that certain dietary antioxidants may help protect the gut from damage caused by microplastic exposure.

Microplastics and the gut-brain axis: Unraveling neurotoxic mechanisms and health implications
This review examines how microplastics interact with the gut-brain axis, a communication network linking the digestive system to the central nervous system. Researchers found that microplastics can disrupt intestinal barrier integrity, alter gut microbiota composition, and trigger systemic inflammation that may affect neurotransmitter balance and brain function. The study suggests that chronic microplastic exposure through the diet could contribute to neurological effects through inflammatory and oxidative stress pathways.
Anti-diabetic effect of anthocyanin cyanidin-3-O-glucoside: data from insulin resistant hepatocyte and diabetic mouse
Researchers showed that cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G) — a natural pigment found in blueberries and other dark fruits — can improve insulin sensitivity in both liver cell cultures and diabetic mice by suppressing a protein that blocks insulin signaling. The findings suggest C3G could be a dietary strategy for managing type 2 diabetes.
Research progress in mechanisms of neurotoxicity induced by micro(nano)plastic exposure
This review summarizes the potential ways that micro- and nanoplastics may harm the nervous system, including through oxidative stress, mitochondrial damage, disruption of the blood-brain barrier, and interference with the gut-brain connection. Researchers found that these particles can accumulate in the nervous system through ingestion, inhalation, and skin contact, potentially contributing to cognitive and behavioral changes. The study also highlights promising protective agents, including curcumin and probiotics, that may help counteract some of these neurotoxic effects.
Mechanistic insight of neurodegeneration due to micro/nano-plastic-induced gut dysbiosis.
This review provided mechanistic insight into how micro/nano-plastic-induced gut dysbiosis drives neurodegeneration, tracing a pathway from intestinal microbiome disruption to neuroinflammation and brain damage.

Oxidized/unmodified-polyethylene microplastics neurotoxicity in mice: Perspective from microbiota-gut-brain axis
Mice exposed to both regular and environmentally weathered polyethylene microplastics developed brain and gut damage, including behavioral changes, weakened gut and blood-brain barriers, and inflammation -- with weathered microplastics causing even more harm. Importantly, treatment with a probiotic (Lactobacillus) and a prebiotic partially reversed these effects, suggesting that gut-friendly supplements might help protect against microplastic-related brain and intestinal damage.
Innovative mechanisms of micro- and nanoplastic-induced brain injury: Emphasis on the microbiota-gut-brain axis
This review summarizes how micro- and nanoplastics may damage the brain through the gut-brain axis, a communication pathway between the digestive system and the nervous system. Nanoplastics can disrupt gut bacteria and weaken the intestinal barrier, potentially sending inflammatory signals to the brain. The authors suggest that targeting gut health could be a way to reduce brain damage caused by nanoplastic exposure.

Dysregulation of the microbiota-brain axis during long-term exposure to polystyrene nanoplastics in rats and the protective role of dihydrocaffeic acid
Researchers exposed rats to low doses of polystyrene nanoplastics over 24 weeks and observed disruptions in the gut-brain connection, including changes in gut bacteria, intestinal damage, and altered brain function. A natural compound called dihydrocaffeic acid showed protective effects against these nanoplastic-induced harms. The study suggests that long-term nanoplastic exposure may disrupt the communication between gut microbes and the brain, with potential implications for neurological health.
Epigallocatechin-3-gallate ameliorates polystyrene microplastics-induced anxiety-like behavior in mice by modulating gut microbe homeostasis
A mouse study found that exposure to polystyrene microplastics caused anxiety-like behavior by disrupting gut bacteria and triggering brain inflammation. A green tea compound called EGCG (epigallocatechin-3-gallate) reversed these effects by restoring healthy gut microbe balance and reducing inflammation in the brain. This suggests the gut-brain connection plays a key role in how microplastics affect mental health, and that certain dietary compounds might offer protection.
The effects of heavy metal exposure on brain and gut microbiota: A systematic review of animal studies
This systematic review of 16 animal studies found evidence that heavy metal exposure disrupts gut microbiota composition, which may in turn affect brain function through the gut-brain axis. Lead was the most studied metal, and the findings suggest that environmental contaminant-induced gut dysbiosis could mediate neurotoxic effects, a mechanism that may also apply to microplastic exposure.
