Overview

Findings reveal that micro/nanoplastics induce thyrotoxicity through follicular cell pyroptosis, suggesting environmental health risks.

Key Points

  • This research aims to elucidate the mechanisms by which micro/nanoplastics cause thyroid toxicity through follicular cell pyroptosis.
  • Investigated the effects of micro/nanoplastics on thyroid follicular cells
  • Analyzed pyroptosis activation mechanisms
  • Examined NF-κB signaling pathway involvement
  • Identified pyroptosis as a key mechanism in thyroid cell toxicity
  • Demonstrated activation of NF-κB signaling in response to micro/nanoplastics
  • Highlighted the adverse impacts of environmental plastic exposure on thyroid health
