Toxic effects on enzymatic activity, gene expression and histopathological biomarkers in organisms exposed to microplastics and nanoplastics: a review

Environmental Sciences Europe, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 34(1)

Published: Sept. 2, 2022

Abstract Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) have become an important global environmental issue due to their widespread contamination in the environment. This review summarizes existing literature on effects of MPs/NPs three biomarkers including enzymatic activity, gene expression, histopathology various organisms from 2016 2021 suggests a path forward for future research. Application are increasingly used experimental toxicology studies because early signs stress organisms. Between 2021, 70% published focused aquatic organisms, compared terrestrial Zebrafish were widely as model organism study adverse impacts MPs/NPs.

Bioactive Compounds and Their Derivatives: An Insight into Prospective Phytotherapeutic Approach against Alzheimer’s Disease

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 2022, P. 1 - 22

Published: April 11, 2022

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative brain disorder that causes cellular response alterations, such as impaired cholinergic mechanism, amyloid-beta (Aβ) AD aggregation, neuroinflammation, and several other pathways. still the most prevalent form of dementia affects many individuals across globe. The exact cause obscure. There are yet no effective medications for halting, preventing, or curing AD’s progress. Plenty natural products isolated from sources analyzed in preclinical clinical settings neuroprotective effects preventing treating AD. In addition, their derivatives have been promising Natural bioactive compounds play an active modulatory role pathological molecular mechanisms development. This review focuses on plant demonstrated activities maybe to treat prevent this article summarizes literature pertaining agents treatment Rapid metabolism, nonspecific targeting, low solubility, lack BBB permeability, limited bioavailability shortcomings molecules We can use nanotechnology nanocarriers based different types approaches.

Ecotoxicological perspectives of microplastic pollution in amphibians

Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health Part B, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 25(8), P. 405 - 421

Published: Nov. 9, 2022

Microplastics (MPs) are contaminants widely distributed in the environment and biota. Previously, most studies focused on identifying characterizing microplastics marine environment, while their impact freshwater ecosystems remains to be determined. This review summarizes recent findings regarding MPs physiological, immunological, genetic effects amphibians based upon biological relevance of this species as indicators pollution. Data demonstrated that contamination may potentially alter various physiological processes aquatic animals, mainly embryonic stages. It is worthwhile noting adverse might enhanced synergy with other pollutants. However, counteract effect pollutants through microbiota present both intestine skin. In addition, amphibian microbial composition also altered by themselves a manner leads unpredicted health consequences amphibians.

Interactions of Microplastics with Pesticides in Soils and Their Ecotoxicological Implications

Agronomy, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 13(3), P. 701 - 701

Published: Feb. 27, 2023

In the middle of 20th century, production plastics exploded worldwide because their low cost and versatility applications. However, since plastic debris is highly resistant to environmental degradation, a growing presence in all ecosystems has been confirmed. Among them, particles < 5 mm, also known as microplastics (MPs), are special concern they dispersed aerial, terrestrial aquatic environments, being soil main sink these contaminants. Due large specific surface area hydrophobicity, MPs considered good adsorbents for other organic pollutants present ecosystems, such pharmaceuticals, personal-care products or pesticides with which can interact thus modify fate. this review article, we examine recent literature (from 2017 2022) get better understanding fate (adsorption, mobility and/or degradation) when simultaneously ecological risks on living organisms interactions between soil. More studies needed fully understand toxicological impact copresence MPs.
