In this study, we investigated the impact of NPs at concentrations found in the environment on the gut flora, intestinal barrier function, liver pyroptosis, and inflammation in mice following 12 weeks of exposure. To further validate the involvement of gut flora in inflammatory liver damage caused by NPs, we utilized antibiotics to remove the intestinal flora and performed fecal microbiota transplantation. We confirmed that NPs exposure altered the gut microbiota composition, with a notable rise in the proportions of <em>Alloprevotella</em> and <em>Ileibacterium</em> while causing a decrease in the relative proportions of <em>Dubosiella</em>. This disruption also affected the gut barrier, increasing lipopolysaccharides in circulation and promoting liver pyroptosis. Importantly, mice receiving fecal transplants from NPs-treated mice showed intestinal barrier damage, liver pyroptosis, and inflammation. However, NPs effects on the intestinal barrier and liver pyroptosis were attenuated by antibiotics depletion of the commensal microbiota. In summary, our current research revealed that extended exposure to environmentally relevant concentrations of NPs resulted in inflammatory damage to the liver.

Our study discovered that light induced generation and accumulation of more toxic brominated organic compounds (Br-org) in lettuce leaves under the stress of acetaminophen (ACE) than that without light, as evidenced by an increase in C-Br bond intensity in FTIR analysis. This result can be explained by the oxidation of bromide ions (Br<sup>-</sup>) by reactive species (ROS and <sup>3</sup>Chl*) of chloroplast into reactive bromine species (RBS). The main mechanism is that the redox of Br<sup>-</sup> reduced the oxidative damage of ACE to the structure and function of chloroplasts, providing good conditions for light energy uptake and utilization and promoting the increase of pigments and active species.
