Article Synopsis
  • - Mitochondrial cristae membranes are crucial for oxidative phosphorylation, with crista junctions (CJs) acting as selective entry points to these areas.
  • - The study reveals that the Mic60 protein's central coiled-coil domain assembles into a bow tie-shaped structure, which is essential for the formation and maintenance of CJs.
  • - Mic19 enhances the tetramerization of Mic60, leading to a structure that can effectively interact with and regulate the shape and function of CJs.

The production and use of plastics has constantly increased over the last 30 years. Over one third of the plastics is used in disposables, which are discarded within three years of their production. Despite efforts towards recycling, a substantial volume of debris has accumulated in the environment and is slowly degraded to micro- and nanoplastics by weathering and aging.

Evidence exists that humans are exposed to plastic microparticles via diet. Data on intestinal particle uptake and health-related effects resulting from microplastic exposure are scarce. Aim of the study was to analyze the uptake and effects of microplastic particles in human in vitro systems and in rodents in vivo.
