ABSTRACT Microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) are byproducts of plastics created to benefit humanity, but improper disposal inadequate recycling have turned them into a global menace that we can no longer conceal. As they interact with all living organisms, including humans, their mechanism interaction perilous impact must be meticulously investigated. To uncover the secrets MNPs, there model systems exist interlink two major scenarios: represent environmental relevant humans. Therefore, zebrafish Drosophila perfect describe these cases, as well studied relatable In this review, 39% studies reported higher mortality hatching rates at greater MNP concentrations, severe oxidative stress seen by raised malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, reduced superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. About 50% showed neurotoxic behavior drop locomotor activity, suggesting neurotoxicity. MNPs significant on fertility rate . More than half revealed genotoxicity in observed wing spot assays modified genomic expressions associated detoxification processes. These findings emphasize potential bioaccumulate, impair physiological systems, cause neurobehavioral damage. This study underscores importance for thorough risk evaluations health consequences.
