Polystyrene nanoplastics potentiate cadmium-induced pyroptosis and apoptosis in primary duck hepatocytes: differential responses to N-acetylcysteine
Introduction Nanoplastics (NPs) can act as carriers for heavy metals, and co-exposure to NPs and co-pollutants may produce greater toxicity than single exposure. However, the combined toxicity of nanoplastics and heavy metals in poultry liver cells remains poorly understood. Methods Primary duck embryonic hepatocytes (...
