Environmental weathering processes such as physical abrasion and ultraviolet (UV) irradiation cause plastic waste to fragment into tiny particles termed weathered nano- and microplastics (W-NMPs). Despite their potential human health hazards, W-NMPs are underinvestigated in terms of their effects, particularly on the central nervous system. We comparatively evaluated the effects of W-NMPs and plain NMPs (P-NMPs) synthesized for specific purposes on brain-derived cells in vitro. W-NMPs triggered apoptosis more robustly than P-NMPs in both primary neural progenitors and isolated oligodendrocyte progenitors, and significantly reduced cell proliferation in primary neural progenitors. We found that W-NMPs induced a more potent inflammatory response in isolated primary microglia than P-NMPs. In the neuron-glia co-culture model, W-NMPs also caused morphological changes in astrocytes. Finally, P-NMPs induced microglial cytotoxicity, but W-NMPs triggered a more vigorous inflammatory response in microglia than P-NMPs in the co-culture model. Our findings provide novel insights into the hazards of W-NMPs exposure to brain health.
