From Heatwaves to Brainwaves: Climate-Driven Microplastics Promote Epstein–Barr Virus Reactivation and Female-Biased Risk for Alzheimer’s Disease and Multiple Sclerosis

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Climate change accelerates plastic degradation, increasing human exposure to microplastics and their associated endocrine-disrupting additives, thereby reshaping the chemical exposome. Many of these compounds, including bisphenols and phthalates, act as xenoestrogens capable of perturbing hormonal, immune, and oxidative stress pathways within the internal biological exposome...
