Lysosomes serve as the cellular recycling centre and are filled with numerous hydrolases
that can degrade most cellular macromolecules. Lysosomal membrane permeabilization …

Mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP) constitutes one of the major
checkpoint (s) of apoptotic and necrotic cell death. Recently, the permeabilization of yet …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a neurological disorder associated with the loss of sensory and
motor function. Understanding the precise dysregulated signaling pathways, especially …

The paper outlines a 2-tier approach for wide-scale biomonitoring programmes. To obtain a
high level of standardization, we suggest the use of caged organisms (mussels or fish). An …

Lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP) occurs in response to a large variety of cell
death stimuli causing release of cathepsins from the lysosomal lumen into the cytosol where …

Background Human exposure to mercury leads to a variety of pathologies involving
numerous organ systems including the immune system. A paucity of epidemiological studies …

Bioplastics are promoted as safer alternatives to tackle the long-term persistence of
conventional plastics. However, information on the potential release of additives and non …

The ecotoxicology of manufactured nanoparticles (MNPs) in estuarine environments is not
