Lipophilic microplastics are found in inflamed arteries because cholestrol is lipid and found in arteries (in dysfunctional inflammatory capacity or acting as a repair kit). There is still a fair chance that microplastics are inert.

Mitochondrial building block balance linked to age-related inflammation
Research led by the Max Planck Institute for Biology of Aging in Cologne reports that misincorporation of ribonucleotides into mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) initiates an inflammatory cascade.
