Microplastics in the marine environment: Current trends in environmental pollution and mechanisms of toxicological profile
TL;DR: It is possible that the toxicological effects of microplastics will continue beyond 2020 the timeline for its ending by world environmental groups, considering that most countries in African and Asia are yet to reduce, re-use or re-circle plastic materials to enhance its abatement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microplastic in marine organism: Environmental and toxicological effects
TL;DR: The main effects of plastics and microplastics on some marine organisms and ecosystem are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecotoxicological effects of microplastics: Examination of biomarkers, current state and future perspectives
TL;DR: The adverse effects of different size, concentrations and types of microplastics on animals' antioxidative system, energy metabolism and nervous system are summarized and potential strategies are examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Micro- (nano) plastics in freshwater ecosystems: Abundance, toxicological impact and quantification methodology
TL;DR: In this article, a review outlines the recent advances made on examination of the potential toxicological effects of microplastics on freshwater biota, as well as the available analytical methods employed to identify and quantify them in environmental samples.

Skepinone-L, a Novel Potent and Highly Selective Inhibitor of p38 MAP Kinase, Effectively Impairs Platelet Activation and Thrombus Formation
Oliver Borst,Britta Walker,Patrick Münzer,Antonella Russo,Evi Schmid,Caterina Faggio,Boris Bigalke,Stefan Laufer,Meinrad Gawaz,Florian Lang +9 more
TL;DR: Skepinone-L did not impair platelet Ca2+ signaling but prevented agonist-induced thromboxane A2 synthesis through abrogation of p38 MAPK-dependent phosphorylation of platelet cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2).
