Although epidemiological evidence has linked O₃ exposure to multiple diseases, the biological mechanisms underlying the health effects remain incompletely understood. Ferroptosis, a form of regulated cell death characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, has been implicated in diverse diseases and is increasingly considered a potential mechanism underlying pollutant-induced health injury. Notably, the core biochemical features of ferroptosis closely align with multiple O₃-induced molecular responses, including reactive oxygen species accumulation, excessive lipid peroxidation, and impaired antioxidant defenses, suggesting that ferroptosis may be a regulated cell death mechanism involved in O₃-related toxicity. However, evidence linking O₃ exposure to ferroptosis remains limited and fragmented. Therefore, this review synthesizes current mechanistic insights and available evidence connecting O₃ exposure with ferroptosis. Relevant literature was retrieved from databases including PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus, covering studies published up to May 2026, and included studies addressing O₃ exposure in relation to ferroptosis, or to ferroptosis-relevant processes such as lipid peroxidation, antioxidant disruption, iron dyshomeostasis, or mitochondrial dysfunction.

Exposure to PS-NPs induced dose-dependent cytotoxicity and ferroptosis, evidenced by elevated Fe²⁺ and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, enhanced lipid peroxidation, glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) downregulation, and acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4 (ACSL4) upregulation. PS-NPs exposure increased hepatic pathological injury scores and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels in vivo. Treatment with ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) markedly attenuated these changes. Mechanistically, PS-NPs exposure disrupted lysosomal function, as shown by reduced expression of lysosome-associated membrane proteins and increased lysosomal pH. This lysosomal impairment hindered degradative capacity and led to ACSL4 accumulation. Restoring lysosomal function with NKH477 reduced ACSL4 levels. Together, these findings suggest that PS-NPs promote hepatocyte ferroptosis through lysosomal dysfunction and subsequent ACSL4 accumulation.

A thorough understanding of these mechanisms could enable early intervention to prevent CPP from its root cause, offering valuable directions for future basic research and treatment strategies. This study identified CPP-relevant targets for plasticizers via public databases, screening biomarkers with eight algorithms. Furthermore, GeneMANIA network analysis, chromosome localization, subcellular localization, ceRNA network analysis, and functional enrichment analysis were included to ascertain the molecular function of biomarkers. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics analyses provided valuable insights into ligand-target interaction mechanisms. A DEHP-induced CPP mouse model was validated by morphological, histological, hormonal, and molecular markers. EGFR, MYC, PTEN and MTOR were identified as CPP biomarkers, involved in cell cycle regulation and PI3K/AKT signaling. These targets were enriched in stress responses and cancer-related pathways. EGFR exhibited the broadest plasticizer binding spectrum, with EGFR-butyl benzyl phthalate showing the highest binding affinity (-8.0 kcal/mol); molecular dynamics confirmed stable target-plasticizer complexes. The DEHP-induced CPP model was successfully established, with model mice exhibiting an advanced vaginal opening time, increased absolute weights and indices of ovaries and uterus, accelerated estrous cycles, altered ovarian follicle developmental phenotypes, elevated serum FSH/LH/E2 (p < 0.001) and dysregulated biomarker expression (downregulated PTEN, upregulated EGFR/MYC/MTOR) in the HPG axis. The increased expression of canonical pubertal regulators indicates premature activation of the KNDy/kisspeptin-GnRH neuroendocrine axis in DEHP-induced CPP.

Coix (Coix lacryma-jobi L.), an important medicinal and edible crop, requires study of its Hg, particularly methylmercury (MeHg) accumulation characteristics and exposure risks. Paired coix plants and rhizosphere soils were collected from cultivation areas in Southwest China to assess inorganic Hg (IHg) and MeHg distribution and transfer in root, stem, leaf and grain. Combined with partial least squares path modeling (PLS-PM), we quantified the effects of soil properties, bioavailable Hg fractions, and dissolved organic carbon on Hg transportation and accumulation in the soil-coix system. Across tissues, MeHg exhibited stronger bioconcentration than IHg. Approximately 55% of coix grain samples had MeHg bioconcentration factors (BCFs) exceeding 1 (mean = 3.44, comparable to MeHg-sensitive rice); coix grain accumulated MeHg, yet its MeHg concentration (0.281 ± 0.215 µg/kg) remained lower than rice from heavily Hg-contaminated sites. The positive correlations of MeHg concentrations between coix grain and leaf (p < 0.05), and particularly between leaf and rhizosphere soil (p < 0.001), suggest that rhizosphere soil is the primary source of MeHg accumulated in coix grain. In contrast, leaf IHg levels (61.3 ± 46.7 µg/kg) were significantly higher than those in stem and root tissues, and the IHg translocation factors (TFs) from root to aboveground tissues were low. Dietary coix intake was the primary Hg exposure pathway for residents. Although the non-carcinogenic hazard quotients for residents were below the safety threshold (HQ < 1), children faced greater IHg and MeHg health risks.

In this study, we developed a machine learning (ML) framework to predict the BCF of HMs in sunflower. Multiple ML models combined with various data preprocessing techniques were systematically evaluated to identify an optimal modeling approach. The optimal categorical boosting model achieved a mean coefficient of determination of 0.60 on the test set, demonstrating satisfactory predictive performance and robust generalization to unseen data. Shapley additive explanation analysis identified soil HM concentration, sunflower components, and electronegativity as dominant predictors. Partial dependence plots further revealed a decreasing trend in BCF with increasing soil HM concentrations. Moreover, structural equation modeling suggested that variation in BCF was primarily associated with direct effects of HM and soil properties, while soil properties also played an important mediating role.

Contaminant aging and reduced bioavailability can restrict microbial access, while microbial inhibition and the formation of potentially persistent transformation products may further limit biodegradation. Existing strategies independently enhance either microbial degradation or contaminant immobilization but rarely resolve the trade-off between substrate accessibility and toxicity reduction. This review proposes a bioavailability-regulated framework in which bamboo-microbe systems are considered potential soil bioreactors that integrate rhizosphere priming, endophytic processes, and pyrolyzed bamboo-derived biochar as an exogenous soil amendment. The proposed framework links the remediating bamboo with a biochar derived from its own biomass, creating a plant-biomass-to-amendment connection that is generally absent from conventional plant-biochar remediation systems based on unrelated plant and biochar feedstocks. Within this framework, biochar is proposed to regulate PHs bioavailability through sorption-desorption processes that may reduce toxicity while retaining sufficient microbial accessibility for transformation and degradation. This review synthesized emerging evidence linking bamboo-driven shifts in soil physicochemical properties, rhizosphere processes, microbial functional traits, and metabolic pathways with PHs transformation, while distinguishing direct bamboo evidence from analogous and mechanistic evidence. For bamboo-based systems, available evidence reveals a critical gap between conceptual potential and field-scale validation. Overall, this work reframes bamboo as a potential regulator of contaminant bioavailability instead of a passive phytoremediator.
