Exposure to micro-and nanoplastics (MNPs) is inevitable due to their omnipresence in the
environment. A growing body of studies has advanced our understanding of the potential …

Microplastics and nanoplastics (M-NPLs) are ubiquitous environmentally, chemically, or
mechanically degraded plastic particles. Humans are exposed to M-NPLs of various sizes …

Background Short-term exposure to ambient air pollution has been linked to occurrence of
myocardial infarction (MI); however, only a limited number of studies investigated its …

Humans are exposed to micro-and-nano plastics (MNPs) through various routes, but the
adverse health effects of MNPs on different organ systems are not yet fully understood. This …

Abstract The World Health Organization estimates that particulate matter (PM) air pollution
contributes to approximately 800,000 premature deaths each year, ranking it the 13th …

Plastic pollution has been a growing concern in recent decades due to the proliferation and
ease of manufacturing of single use plastic products and inadequate waste and recycling …

In 2004, the first American Heart Association scientific statement on “Air Pollution and
Cardiovascular Disease” concluded that exposure to particulate matter (PM) air pollution …

The carbon nanotube (CNT) represents one of the most unique inventions in the field of
nanotechnology. CNTs have been studied closely over the last two decades by many …

Although humans have been exposed to airborne nanosized particles (NSPs;< 100 nm)
throughout their evolutionary stages, such exposure has increased dramatically over the last …

This review is presented as a common foundation for scientists interested in nanoparticles,
their origin, activity, and biological toxicity. It is written with the goal of rationalizing and …
