Polylactic acid nanoplastics induce kidney injury by activating the TRPM2-mediated mitophagy pathway.
Polylactic acid nanoparticles (PLA NPs) are widely used biodegradable plastics, but their potential health risks remain unclear. This study explores whether PLA NPs induce renal cell apoptosis through a mitochondrial pathway involving transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2) and mitophagy. Adult male C57BL/6 m...
