Osteoporosis (OP), a metabolic disorder predominantly impacting postmenopausal women, has seen considerable progress in diagnosis and treatment over the past few decades. However, the intricate interplay between genetic factors and endocrine disrupto...
Plastic pollution, driven by micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs), poses a major environmental threat, exposing humans through various routes. Despite human colorectal adenocarcinoma Caco-2 cells being used as an in vitro model for studying the intestinal ...
Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are widely used across a spectrum of industrial and consumer goods. Nonetheless, their persistent nature and tendency to accumulate in biological systems pose substantial environmental and health t...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), one of the persistent organic pollutants, have immunosuppressive effects. The evaluation of this effect has been the focus of regulatory toxicology. In this investigation, 146 PFASs (immunosuppressive or n...
