QMSI effectively maps and quantifies drug distribution in skin tissues.

This study investigated the ability of a human hair keratin dimer to absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutane sulfonate, finding high binding affinities that suggest potential for hair-derived materials in water filtration technologies.

In this study, researchers propose that the EDAR V370A allele's positive selection in East Asian populations may be linked to stable aquatic resources from Late Pleistocene ecosystems in northern China, suggesting a "nutritional niche construction" framework where these resources offset the allele's metabolic costs.

This review discusses the impact of endocrine-disrupting chemicals on pediatric health, linking them to various disorders, and calls for improved biomonitoring strategies and precautionary policies.

This review discusses the role of biotin in metabolism and the consequences of its deficiency, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, the genotoxic effects of the 2020 harmful algal bloom event were linked to specific toxic algal groups affecting Tradescantia plants, making Trad-SHM and Trad-MN tests suitable for evaluating HABs' toxic potential.

This case report details a 43-year-old woman who survived severe multiorgan injury from accidental Colchicum autumnale poisoning, resulting in ongoing muscle weakness and intermittent hair loss three years after the incident.

This study using high-performance liquid chromatography reported that mice with more diverse gut microbiota had higher levels of specific compounds in hair compared to those with less diversity, with stress affecting certain plasma levels.

In this case report, a 27-year-old woman experienced severe multisystem toxicity, including toxic encephalopathy, vision, and hearing loss, after ingesting selenium at occupationally high doses, suggesting such exposure can lead to previously unreported effects of vision and hearing impairment.

This review discusses biotin supplementation for dermatological conditions and highlights the lack of strong evidence supporting its efficacy, as well as the potential for laboratory testing interference.

This case report observed that despite treatment with Berlin blue and forced diuresis for thallium poisoning, a 42-year-old man experienced lasting distal polyneuropathy symptoms six months post-hospital discharge.

This review discusses mealworm farming as a sustainable, low-cost, and environmentally friendly method for producing high-quality poultry and fish feed, but it does not report new results.

This case report details a 23-year-old woman who was poisoned with thallium by a colleague and treated with activated charcoal and Prussian blue.

This review highlights the importance of standardizing pre-analytical procedures for collecting and extracting samples from uncommon biological specimens like breast milk and sweat in clinical metabolomics, to enhance diagnostic and biomarker discovery efforts while minimizing contamination and bias.

This review discusses how mineral deficiencies, particularly iron and zinc, affect health globally and explores bio-fortification and other strategies to combat these deficiencies, but reports no new experimental results.

This article proposes a strategy for identifying bioactive, small molecule, metallo-species in Traditional Chinese Medicine to explore their potential for drug development, but reports no new results.

This article discusses the potential use of hair fibers to noninvasively measure polyamine concentrations as a marker of tumor growth, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study presents a hypothesis that the EDAR V370A allele was positively selected in East Asian populations due to the stable aquatic resources in Late Pleistocene northern China, which may have offset the allele's metabolic costs and provided a selective advantage.

This article discusses the dual nature of selenium, highlighting its essential metabolic roles and potential toxicity at high doses, and reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses two genetic disorders affecting biotin metabolism, each resulting in distinctive skin and hair manifestations, and outlines the associated serious metabolic complications.

This review suggests that skin may largely protect itself from CYP-generated reactive metabolites due to higher conjugating enzyme activities, while highlighting limitations in modeling human skin metabolism experimentally.

This study concluded that the elemental composition of tail brush hair in newborn calves can indicate trace element supply to the fetus during the last months of pregnancy.

This study quantified around 60 organic pollutants in hair samples from mothers and infants in Spain, finding significant correlations between pollutant levels and factors like residence, dietary habits, and maternal age, with common exposure sources identified for several pollutant classes.

In this study, researchers reported that compounds from Bruguiera gymnorhiza leaves showed anti-inflammatory potential in in silico analyses, with favorable drug properties and specific binding to the IKKβ receptor, suggesting possible development into anti-inflammatory drugs.

This report examines the mechanisms by which TCDD affects human epidermal and carcinoma cells, aiming to create a risk assessment model for halogenated aromatic compounds, but presents no new clinical results.

This study found that dimethylarsinic acid significantly accelerates skin tumor development in hair follicle-targeted K6/ODC transgenic mice.

This article reviews the potential risks of various phytotoxins in milk for animals and humans, discussing the need for awareness and further research but providing no new findings.

This review summarizes the use of fecal glucocorticoid metabolite analysis to monitor stress across various bear species and reports no new clinical results.
