When Plastic ParticlesHit the Nose: Metabolic Responsesto Nanoplastics, Microplastics, and Their Mixtures in Normal HumanNasal Epithelial Cells

Abstract Airborne micro- and nanoplastics are emerging inhalation contaminants, yet their effects on the first human airway barrier, the nasal epithelium, remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated metabolic responses of normal human nasal epithelial cells exposed to polysty...
