The ubiquity of nanoparticles, sourced from both natural environments and human activities, presents critical challenges for public health. While offering significant potential innovative biomedical applications-especially in enhancing drug transport across the blood-brain barrier-these particles also introduce possible hazards due to inadvertent exposure. This concise review explores paradoxical nature emphasizing their promising applications healthcare juxtaposed with neurotoxic consequences. Through a detailed examination, we delineate pathways through which nanoparticles can reach brain subsequent health implications. There is growing evidence disturbing association between nanoparticle exposure onset neurodegenerative conditions, highlighting imperative comprehensive research strategic interventions. Gaining deep understanding these mechanisms enacting protective policies are crucial steps toward reducing threats thereby maximizing therapeutic advantages.

Microplastics, primarily derived from plastic waste, are pervasive environmental pollutants found across aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. This review investigates microplastics’ presence, distribution, impacts in marine ecosystems, with a particular focus on fish species. Research indicates that microplastics present various anatomical parts of fish, including the gastrointestinal tracts gills, significant implications for biodiversity human health through seafood consumption. The also highlights sources microplastics, such as synthetic textiles, packaging, personal care products, explores pathways which these particles enter environments. Advanced detection techniques have identified tissues, underscoring urgency addressing this threat. Comprehensive strategies essential to mitigate microplastic pollution protect both life health.

Micro/Nano plastics (MNPs) pollutants are widespread in the environment, raising significant concerns about their biosafety. Emerging studies indicate that urinary system is a primary accumulation site for MNPs, leading to severe tissue and functional damage. This review aims summarize recent research on potential hazards MNPs may pose system, highlighting mechanisms of toxicity current state knowledge. Studies have shown enter human body through drinking water, food chain, inhalation, skin contact. They penetrate bloodstream via digestive, respiratory, systems, subsequently dispersing various organs, including system. The might induce cellular oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, autophagy, "intestine-kidney axis", other possible toxic mechanisms. These processes could disrupt kidney metabolic functions promote fibrosis, thereby potentially increasing risk diseases. Despite ongoing research, understanding MNPs' impact remains limited. Therefore, this provides comprehensive overview highlights key challenges, outlines future directions. It offers theoretical basis development effective protective measures policies.

Abstract Introduction In 2019 the World Health Organisation published a report which concluded microplastics in drinking water did not present threat to human health. Since this time plethora of research has emerged demonstrating presence plastic various organ systems and their deleterious pathophysiological effects. Methods A scoping review was undertaken line with recommendations from Johanna Briggs Institute. Five databases (PubMed, SCOPUS, CINAHL, Web Science EMBASE) were systematically searched addition further grey literature search. Results Eighteen articles identified, six investigated characterised nanoplastics (MNPs) urinary tract. Microplastics found be kidney, urine bladder cancer samples. Twelve effect MNPs on cell lines associated These suggest have cytotoxic effect, increase inflammation, decrease viability alter mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) signalling pathways. Conclusion Given reported tissues organs, these plastics may potential health implications disease dysfunction. As result, institutions such as need urgently re-evaluate position public Impact statement This highlights rapidly emerging microplastic contamination within tract, challenging Organisation’s assertion that pose no risk The documented effects microplastics, alongside ability induce reduce disrupt pathways, raise significant concerns relating cancer, chronic kidney disease, tract infections incontinence. study emphasises pressing for policy development address challenges surrounding contamination.
