Single-cell and metabolomic profiling reveals brain cellular and metabolic disruptions in pregnant mice exposed to micro- and nanoplastics.

Micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) are emerging environmental contaminants that can cross biological barriers, but their direct effects on the developing brain remain poorly defined. We hypothesized that prenatal MNPs exposure impairs neurodevelopment by disrupting cerebral homeostasis. To test this hypothesis, we establis...
