Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...

Biomarkers of Pre‐COPD Lung Function Trajectories in Middle Age: A Prospective Study From 1st to 6th Decade

Respirology, EarlyView.
Identifying impaired lifetime lung function trajectories is key to identifying the preclinical phase of COPD (Pre‐COPD) or prognosis of COPD. We have identified that some circulating established COPD biomarkers differ across ‘pre‐COPD’ lung function trajectories, suggesting that some COPD‐specific pathobiological processes, including inflammation, are ...
