Endocytosis, Distribution, and Exocytosis of Polystyrene Nanoparticles in Human Lung Cells

Nanoplastics, one component of plastic pollution, can enter human bodies via inhalation and thus threaten human health. However, the knowledge about the uptake and exocytosis of nanoplastics in cells of human lung organs is still very limited. Herein, we investigated the endocytosis, distribution, a...
