Recent research has demonstrated for the first time that microplastics can accumulate in the brain's blood vessels, leading to blockages similar to a 'car crash,' which can negatively impact motor function in mice. The study revealed that these accumulations might indicate serious neurological implications, raising alarms about the broader effects of microplastics in humans, especially considering their presence in various body tissues. As human exposure to microplastics increases, understanding their toxicological impact is becoming increasingly urgent.
This revelation offers a lens through which to comprehend the toxicological implications of microplastics that invade the bloodstream.
Mice exposed to microplastics experienced decreased motor function, hinting at negative effects on brain health.
