This review summarizes recent advances in the major microbial groups involved in plastic biodegradation, methods for assessing degradation efficiency, underlying mechanisms, and strategies for improving degradation performance. Assessment methods are discussed, from physicochemical characterization to biochemical validation. Meanwhile, it emphasizes that real plastic biodegradation and degradation efficiency require multiple complementary lines of evidence to judge in a more complete and objective way. The complete process and molecular mechanisms of microbial plastic degradation are then described, including microbial attachment and biofilm formation, enzymatic degradation, intracellular metabolism, and mineralization of degradation products. In addition, it summarizes various efficiency optimization strategies for degradation, including plastic pretreatment, bioaugmentation, and regulation of environmental parameters. The lack of standardized assessment, limited practical translation, and ecological risks are the identified key challenges.

Gut dysbiosis may contribute to atherosclerosis through multiple metabolite-dependent, immune, vascular, and metabolic pathways. Recent multi-omics and experimental studies further indicate that microbiota influence vascular biology beyond compositional changes alone. In parallel, plaque-associated microbial signals, potentially originating from the oral cavity or gut, may contribute to local inflammation, oxidative stress, necrotic core expansion, and plaque vulnerability. We further discuss a putative gut-oral-intraplaque axis, a potential local microbial metabolite microenvironment within plaques, and possible cross-kingdom interactions between gut fungi and bacteria.
