BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia is known as a decline in skeletal muscle quality and function that is associated with age. Sarcopenia is linked to diverse health problems, including endocrine-related diseases. Environmental chemicals (ECs), a broad class of c...
With the acceleration of urbanization, the risk of urban population exposure to environmental pollutants is increasing. Protecting public health is the top priority in the construction of smart cities. The purpose of this study is to propose a method...
As emerging pollutants, antidepressants (AD) must be urgently investigated for risk identification and assessment. This study constructed a comprehensive-effect risk-priority screening system (ADRank) for ADs by characterizing AD functionality, occur...
Exposure to hexavalent chromium damages genetic materials like DNA and chromosomes, further elevating cancer risk, yet research rarely focuses on related immunological mechanisms, which play an important role in the occurrence and development of canc...

The continuously increased production of various chemicals and their release into environments have raised potential negative effects on ecological health. However, traditional labor-intensive assessment methods cannot effectively and rapidly evaluat...
Cancer remains a significant global health concern, with millions of deaths attributed to it annually. Environmental pollutants play a pivotal role in cancer etiology and contribute to the growing prevalence of this disease. The carcinogenic assessme...
Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) are global pollutants with emerging concerns. Methods to predict and screen their toxicity are crucial. Elemental dyshomeostasis can be used to assess toxicity of environmental pollutants. Non-targeted metal...
Ocean stratification plays a crucial role in many biogeochemical processes of dissolved matter, but our understanding of its impact on widespread organic pollutants, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), remains limited. By analyzing disso...
