Micro- and nanoplastic exposure, immune cell activation, and lung function in young adults

Microplastics and Nanoplastics
Rationale Micro- and nanoplastics, an emerging public health concern, enter the human body through inhalation and ingestion. The potential for this exposure to induce a pro-inflammatory immune response or impair lung function remains unknown.
