In this laboratory study, the methanolic extract of Eclipta alba demonstrated significant anthelmintic activity against earthworms (Pheretima posthuma), causing paralysis and death at doses of 50-100 mg/ml, with stronger effects observed at higher concentrations compared to the standard treatment, albendazole.

In this study, BCC therapy reduced oxidative stress and cell damage in cardiomyocyte cells, suggesting it may serve as a new treatment alternative for heart disease.

This study found that deferoxamine may protect against sensorineural hearing loss by reducing oxidative stress-induced hair cell death through iron chelation and activation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway in lab models.

This review examines the off-label use of low-dose oral minoxidil for treating alopecia, comparing it to topical minoxidil and discussing potential risks, benefits, and side effects, as well as nursing considerations for patient care.

In this study, researchers found that an antibacterial toner can penetrate keratin and sebum plugs and exhibits bactericidal effects against Cutibacterium acnes, as evidenced by a decrease in viable cell counts within artificial plugs inoculated with the bacteria.

This study reported that COVID-19 patients treated with nirmatrelvir/ritonavir had lower anti-spike IgG levels and different cytokine patterns compared to those not receiving antiviral treatment, suggesting early antiviral use may alter immune response by reducing viral load and antigen presentation.

This study reported that an injectable hydrogel microparticle vaccine platform enhanced antibody responses and protection against influenza in mice, outperforming the traditional adjuvant aluminum hydroxide.

This study found that apocynin restored collagen production, reduced DNA damage and senescence, and protected skin stem cells from aging in UVB-exposed human keratinocytes.

This study examined extracts from the heartwood of Kouyousan trees for anti-termite activity against Japanese termites. The researchers reported that cedrol showed strong anti-termite effects, with feeding deterrent activity at low concentrations and lethal effects at high concentrations, while isoabienol mainly contributed to feeding deterrence.

In this study, Amazonian pepper extracts showed potential as an ingredient for alopecia treatment due to their promising chemical profile, low cytotoxicity, and compatibility with shampoo formulations.

In this case report, the researchers emphasize the importance of regular prostate exams and PSA tests for diabetic men, including those who are hypogonadal, because prostate cancer development is linked to intraprostatic dihydrotestosterone levels, not serum testosterone levels.

This study found that inhibiting autophagy in mouse preputial glands alters lipid metabolism, delays aging-related duct changes, and reduces pheromone production, indicating autophagy's critical role in gland homeostasis and cell breakdown during secretion.

In this study, cepharanthine and tetrandrine demonstrated efficacy against SARS-CoV-2 in a cell-based infection assay, with cepharanthine showing a lower IC50 value.

This study found that autophagy in the preputial glands of mice plays a crucial role in regulating lipid and fatty acid metabolism, as well as pheromone production.

This study reported that methanolic extracts from marine sponges, particularly Petrosia sp. and Agelas nakamurai, showed significant enzyme inhibitory activities, with Petrosia sp. exhibiting notable 5?-reductase inhibition.

This study found that mechanical and chemical interactions in skin organoids are crucial for initiating mesenchymal-epithelial interactions necessary for hair follicle regeneration.

This study found that off-pump coronary surgery significantly reduces in-hospital morbidity compared to on-pump surgery without affecting midterm outcomes in the first 1-3 years after the procedure.

This review discusses the potential link between smoking and hair loss and suggests that raising awareness about this association could enhance anti-smoking education efforts.

This study found that activating Nrf2 in human hair follicles significantly reduced oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, and protected against hair growth inhibition, suggesting a protective role for Nrf2 against redox insult in this context.

This review discusses recent advances in using nanocarrier-loaded gels for various medical applications and reports no new clinical results, highlighting potential advantages in therapeutic strategies.

This study suggests that melatonin may have a radioprotective role against X-ray-induced skin damage in rats, as evidenced by milder injury markers in pretreated animals.

The researchers reported that a new nanoformulation of paclitaxel-loaded nanoparticles showed superior antitumor effects against malignant melanoma in vitro and in vivo compared to the commercial formulation Taxol^®.

This study identified five FDA-approved drugs—cepharantine, clofazimine, metergoline, imatinib, and efloxate—as potential candidates for repurposing to interfere with viral entry in COVID-19 treatment.

This study found that the combination of letrozole and quercetin loaded in spanlastics showed enhanced cytotoxicity and other anticancer effects against MCF-7 breast cancer cells compared to individual treatments.

This review suggests that while NSAIDs may inhibit bone healing and have variable effects on other complications, caution is advised in their prescription post-surgery, particularly for female patients.

This study reported that a novel liposomal formulation, SP-bFGF-SF-LIP, enhanced bFGF stability and skin permeability, significantly improving hair follicle recovery and wound healing in a mouse model.

This study in transgenic mice found that the combination of SPF 15 sunscreen and a UVA filter provided strong protection against UVA-induced elastin promoter activation and thus may reduce photoaging.

This study found that using copper-doped mesoporous silica nanoparticles to deliver IL-1Ra and copper ions effectively reduced arterial stenosis, plaque burden, and macrophage infiltration in atherosclerosis, by promoting macrophage apoptosis and providing anti-inflammatory effects.

This article reviews the evidence regarding the role of sex hormones in occult hyperadrenocorticism and reports no new findings, highlighting the unproven nature of their involvement.

This study found that Brigatinib-loaded nanospanlastics demonstrated enhanced cytotoxicity against lung cancer cells and improved drug stability and release compared to free Brigatinib.
