Abstract: Growing evidence demonstrates that the bioaccumulation of polystyrene nanoplastics (PS‐NPs) in the gastrointestinal tract has negative effects on health. Until now, little information has been available regarding the potential hazards of PS‐NPs to intestinal epithelial… read more here.

Abstract: Autophagy is a eukaryotic catabolic process also participating in cell-autonomous defence. Infected host cells generate double-membrane autophagosomes that mature in autolysosomes to engulf, kill and digest cytoplasmic pathogens. However, several bacteria subvert autophagy and benefit… read more here.
