Rotenone Induces Morphological Damage and Reduction in Catecholamine Levels in the Central Nervous System of the Ascidian Styela plicata

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ascidians are invertebrates that occupy a key phylogenetic position as a sister group of the vertebrates. The organization of their central nervous system (CNS), with cortex and medulla, indicates a plesiomorphic character of the gray and white matter of vertebrates, making this group of animals useful for studies of neurodegenerative events ...

From Consumer Plastics to Aquatic Toxicants: Oxidative and Endocrine Effects of Microplastics on Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) Larvae

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary microplastics (MPs) from single‐use consumer products are rapidly becoming one of the most persistent and widespread pollutants of our time. Freshwater systems act as early sinks for MPs where fragmentation and additive leaching expose aquatic life to a broad spectrum of toxic compounds.

Climate‐Modulated Particle Toxicity: Acute Exposure to an Environmentally Informed Microplastic Mixture Induces Sex‐Dependent Systemic Reorganization in Swiss Mice

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution is widely recognized as an emerging environmental threat. Yet, most studies still rely on controlled experimental conditions that poorly reflect environmental complexity, potentially underestimating risks under realistic scenarios, particularly during short‐term exposures. Here, we tested whether acute oral exposure

Progress in bone tissue engineering biomaterials: Development, challenges, and prospects

VIEW, EarlyView.
Scheme 1 Application of biomaterials in immunomodulation during bone tissue engineering. Abstract Bone defect repair remains a major clinical challenge in orthopedics. Over 2 million cases caused by trauma, tumors, and other factors occur annually, with large‐scale defects posing a particular bottleneck due to limited self‐healing capacity.

Plant‐derived nanovesicles as potential drug delivery systems for topical use: Emerging applications in dermatology and cosmetology

VIEW, EarlyView.
Plant‐derived nanovesicles (PDNVs) are naturally secreted by fruit, vegetables, seeds, leaves and other natural sources. Used as drug delivery systems, they can combine intrinsic therapeutic activity, enhanced skin permeation and cargo‐carrying capacity, suitable for dermatological and cosmetic applications including hydration, antioxidant/anti ...
