Among two major routes of exposure to microplastics (MPs), inhalation pathways are less investigated than ingestion pathways. In this study, quantitative estimation of microplastics intake and internalization was conducted using the multi-path particle dosimetry (MPPD) model by US Environmental Protection Agency assuming three representative particle size distributions (i.e., Power law, unimodal, and biomodal distributions) of cylindrical MPs within the aerodynamic diameter between 0.1 and 10 μm at the aspect ratio of 3:1. Assuming the default atmospheric concentration of MPs at 0.1 μg m-3, the estimated mass deposition in human lungs ranged 19.1-49.9 μg. Although sensitivity analysis revealed that estimated mass deposition of MPs in human lungs were not much different among three particle size distributions, deposition in the pulmonary region was strongly affected by the type of size distributions. Because of suspected health symptoms of MPs in the pulmonary region and the slower clearance in this region, it is of urgent needs to characterize MP size distribution in the inhalable particle size range (0.1-10 μm) and to analyze MPs in the same size range in human respiratory tissues.","PeriodicalId":101307,"journal":{"name":"Environmental analysis, health and toxicology","volume":"40 Special","pages":"e2025s02-0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12928532/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145566892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, the effects of PFOA and PFOS on endocrine disruption were assessed using the Integrated Approaches to Testing and Assessment (IATA) methodology based on the adverse outcome pathway (AOP). PFOA/PFOS in vitro data for enzyme activities for steroidogenesis, hormone levels of 17β-estradiol and testosterone, receptor binding capacity, receptor transcriptional activation, cell proliferation and differentiation were collated and assessed to elucidate the association between the data with the human adverse outcomes. Multiple studies indicate that PFOA/PFOS alter enzyme activities, hormone levels, receptor transcription, and cell proliferation. Moreover, associations were found between in vitro data and human outcomes including semen quality, menarche, menopause, menstrual cycle, infertility, miscarriage, cancer, and birth weight. This study effectively links toxic mechanisms to human adverse outcomes of PFOA and PFOS. However, in vitro data based on the molecular initial events (MIEs) and key events (KEs) in AOP frame works are not enough and often inconsistent for integrated assessment, which suggest that more data for endocrine disruption are required for clear and complete IATA of PFOA and PFOS.","PeriodicalId":101307,"journal":{"name":"Environmental analysis, health and toxicology","volume":"40 Special","pages":"e2025s03-0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12897487/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145566900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Human activities, such as deforestation and resource overuse, have accelerated environmental changes, known as Anthropocene Acceleration. The Planetary Boundaries framework identifies nine ecological limits, including climate change and biodiversity loss. By 2023, six of these boundaries had been exceeded, threatening human survival. Climate change, driven by greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, is causing extreme weather, rising sea levels, and ecosystem disruptions. The IPCC warns that surpassing 1.5°C will have severe consequences. Climate inequality is worsening, as the wealthiest 10% produce nearly half of global emissions, while low-income populations bear most climate-related economic and health burdens. Biodiversity loss further increases infectious disease risks, necessitating a One Health approach that integrates human, animal, and environmental health. The healthcare sector contributes 4.6% of global emissions, requiring urgent action to become carbon-neutral. South Korea's climate-health policies need to expand beyond infectious diseases to chronic conditions and vulnerable populations including future generations. While WHO advocates integrating climate resilience with emission reductions, ensuring a sustainable, health-centered response to the climate crisis, South Korea lacks GHG reduction targets for healthcare sectors. To address this, South Korea should mandate carbon reporting for healthcare, integrate emissions reduction in hospital accreditation, provide sustainability incentives. Improving high-emission medical practices requires healthcare awareness, behavioral change, and scientific evidence for safety.","PeriodicalId":101307,"journal":{"name":"Environmental analysis, health and toxicology","volume":"40 Special","pages":"e2025s06-0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12897484/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145566905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Urine sampling and health surveys were conducted for 120 participants living near a smelter for the Forensic Research via Omics Markers (FROM) study. Nine urinary metals (V, Cr, Mn, Ni, Mo, Cd, Sb, Pb, and Hg) and RTD markers such as beta-2-microglobulin (β2-MG) and N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) were analyzed. The effects of multiple metals on RTD and the relative importance of each metal were investigated using Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR). The nine metals were highly correlated with each other, suggesting co-exposure to multiple metals. In the results of BKMR, co-exposure to multiple metals significantly affected NAG levels across the entire urinary metal concentration range. Although β2-MG levels increased with rising urinary metal concentrations, the increase was not statistically significant. V and Cd were the highest contributors to β2-MG (posterior inclusion probability, PIP=0.853) and NAG (PIP=0.983), respectively. This study demonstrates co-exposure to metals among residents living in the metal-contaminated area and that co-exposure to multiple metals significantly increased NAG levels. Additionally, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to show that V is the highest contributor to the increase inβ2-MG. This study extends previous research by evaluating co-exposure to a more comprehensive array of metals, there by offering a broader perspective on the potential health impacts of RTD among residents in metal-contaminated areas.","PeriodicalId":101307,"journal":{"name":"Environmental analysis, health and toxicology","volume":"40 2","pages":"e2025014-0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12623109/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145133163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twenty-five rats were divided into five groups: groups include control; NaAsO2/HFD treated; NaAsO2/HFD + NlREq at 200 mg /kg and 400 mg/kg; and NaAsO2/HFD treated with silymar in at the dose of 50 mg/kg.

As shown in the present study, NaAsO2/HFD group exhibited enhanced anxiety related behaviour, memory deficit, oxidative stress (MDA, TNF-α, IL-1β) and decreased antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, GSH) activity. The histological examination revealed significant neuronal loss and remarkable architectural alteration in hippocampus, prefrontal cortex and cerebellum. These effects were ameliorated by NlREq administered in a dose-dependent manner, with the 400 mg/kg dose enhancing memory in the affected animals, reducing inflammation, replenishing antioxidant defence systems, and maintaining integrity of neurons.

This systematic review consolidates studies that assess environmental contaminant levels, specifically radionuclides, pesticides, and heavy metals, in commonly consumed Nigerian food crops and evaluates the associated carcinogenic (CR) and non-carcinogenic (NCR) health risks using established health risk assessment models, including estimated daily intake (EDI), hazard quotient (HQ), hazard index (HI), hazard ratio (HR), and carcinogenic risk (CR). Reports of quantitative levels of metals and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), as well as information on radionuclides in Nigerian food crops, were sourced from SCOPUS, DOAJ, PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. Of the 568 articles retrieved, 66 met the inclusion criteria. The reviewed studies indicate increasing levels of both natural and artificial radionuclides in food crops, with isotopes such as 226Ra and 232Th posing higher carcinogenic risks and genetic-related syndromes. Findings also show that, among the heavy metals and OCPs, Cd and lindane were present at the lowest average concentrations, while iron (Fe) and p,p'-DDT had the highest. The HQ-based NCR estimates for Pb, Cd, Cu, and Mn exceeded 1 in both adults and children, while 92% of OCPs had HQ >1 across both age groups.

Five OCPs (aldrin, beta-lindane, beta-endosulfan, endosulfan ether and heptachlor epoxide) were investigated. Extraction was carried out by a quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe (QuEChERS) procedure; extract was cleaned-up using solid phase extraction while instrumental analysis was performed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Health risk assessment (non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic) to adult, children and infants was carried out using standard models and indices. Target OCPs were measured up to 0.013 mg/kg for heptachlor epoxide in Oreochromis niloticus from Dandaru River. Lowest concentrations for most of the OCPs were determined in Clarias gariepinus from Eleyele River. Hazard indices (HI) indicate that non-carcinogenic risk to adult and children was not apparent by consuming all investigated fish species from Dandaru River and Eleyele Lake. However, a high non-carcinogenic risk to infants was expected by consuming Oreochromis niloticus and Oreochromis lidole from Eleyele Lake as well as all investigated fish species (except Oreochromis aureas) from Dandaru River, apparently due to the contribution of heptachlor epoxide. Although carcinogenic risk was not expected in adult due to consumption of all investigated fish species from both Eleyele Lake and Dandaru River, consumption of Oreochromis niloticus from Eleyele Lake by infants and children, Oreochromis lidole from Eleyele Lake by infants, as well as all investigated fish species (except Oreochromis aureas) from Dandaru River by infants poses possible carcinogenic effects.
