Plastic pollution has become one of the major environmental problems facing human beings in world today. waste accumulated environment forms plastic particles different sizes due to farming activities, climate change, ultraviolet light, microbial degradation, and animal chewing. The caused by microplastics a problem recent years, it is also research hotspot field ecological environment. More more studies have found that ruminants are exposed for long time, which seriously threaten their healthy growth. This paper introduces current situation pollution; properties effects on environment, beings, animals; summarizes types toxicity mechanisms microplastics; concludes main ways enter harm them. In addition, shortcomings future development summarized prospected provide theoretical reference related alleviating influence ruminant production.

Abstract Exposure to micro‐ and nanoplastics (MNPs) is common because of their omnipresence in environment. Recent studies have revealed that MNPs may cause atherosclerosis, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. To address this bottleneck, ApoE −/− mice are exposed 2.5–250 mg kg −1 polystyrene (PS‐NPs, 50 nm) by oral gavage with a high‐fat diet for 19 weeks. It found PS‐NPs blood aorta mouse exacerbate artery stiffness promote atherosclerotic plaque formation. activate phagocytosis M1‐macrophage aorta, manifesting as upregulation macrophage receptor collagenous structure (MARCO). Moreover, disrupt lipid metabolism increase long‐chain acyl carnitines (LCACs). LCAC accumulation attributed PS‐NP‐inhibited hepatic carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2. PS‐NPs, well LCACs alone, aggravate via upregulating MARCO oxidized low‐density lipoprotein‐activated foam cells. Finally, synergistic effects on increasing total cholesterol cells found. Overall, study indicates PS‐NP‐induced atherosclerosis MARCO. This offers new insight into mechanisms MNP‐induced cardiovascular toxicity, highlights combined endogenous metabolites system, which warrant further study.

Abstract Emerging evidence indicates that chemical exposures in the environment are overlooked drivers of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Recent suggests micro- and nanoplastic (MNP) particles derived largely from or mechanical degradation plastics might represent a novel CVD risk factor. Experimental data preclinical models suggest MNPs can foster oxidative stress, platelet aggregation, cell senescence, inflammatory responses endothelial immune cells while promoting range metabolic alterations lead to disease premature death. In humans, various plastics, including polyethylene polyvinylchloride, have been detected atherosclerotic plaques other tissues, pericardia, epicardial adipose pericardial myocardia, left atrial appendages. measurable levels within thrombi seem accumulate preferentially areas vascular lesions. Their presence carotid is associated with subsequent increased incidence events. To further investigate possible causal role CVD, future studies should focus on large, prospective cohorts assessing exposure individuals plastic-related pollution, routes absorption, existence putative safety limit, correspondence between accumulation timing development, pathophysiological mechanisms instigated by pertinent concentrations MNPs. Data such would allow design preventive, even therapeutic, strategies. Meanwhile, existing reducing plastic production use will produce benefits for human health. This goal could be achieved through UN Global Plastics Treaty currently negotiation.

Abstract Background The global use of plastic materials has undergone rapid expansion, resulting in the substantial generation degraded and synthetic microplastics nanoplastics (MNPs), which have potential to impose significant environmental burdens cause harmful effects on living organisms. Despite this, detrimental impacts MNPs exposure towards host cells tissues not been thoroughly characterized. Results In present study, we elucidated a previously unidentified hepatotoxic effect 20 nm polystyrene nanoparticles (PSNPs), rather than larger PS beads, by selectively inducing necroptosis macrophages. Mechanistically, PSNPs were rapidly internalized macrophages accumulated mitochondria, where they disrupted mitochondrial integrity, leading heightened production reactive oxygen species (mtROS). This elevated mtROS essentially triggered macrophages, enhanced crosstalk with hepatocytes, ultimately hepatocyte damage. Additionally, it was demonstrated that induced promoted acute liver injury mice. significantly mitigated administration inhibitor or systemic depletion prior injection. Conclusion Collectively, our study suggests profound toxicity PSNP triggering macrophage necroptosis, turn induces hepatotoxicity via intercellular between hepatocytes hepatic microenvironment.
