Microplastics reach human lungs, blood, and brain, yet their biological impact is poorly defined. In our new @embomolmed.org review, we connect environmental exposure to inflammation, stress signalling, epigenetic disruption, and cell identity.

New paper out in EMBO Mol Med! We use machine learning to predict Aβ-PET burden from fluid biomarkers. www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

Key findings:
- Performance R² = 0.79
- CSF Aβ42/Aβ40 most predictive of Aβ plaque presence
- Plasma p-tau217 best for tracking increasing amyloid plaque burden
