Nadja Brun et al. examine the link between a polystyrene nanoplastic-induced distortion of energy metabolism and behavioural changes in zebrafish. They show that exposure to polystyrene nanoplastics results in the disruption of glucose homoeostasis with an increase in cortisol secretion, and hyperactivity.
