This review discusses the essential roles and complex regulation of PP2A in various physiological processes and reports no clinical results; the authors highlight the need for further mouse model research to explore PP2A's therapeutic potential.

This review discusses the causes and clinical presentations of ptosis in childhood and reports on several observed cases, but provides no new clinical results.

MRI helps distinguish between pituitary adenomas and craniopharyngiomas, guides treatment for pediatric CNS tumors, and assesses rhinocerebral mucormycosis with a high mortality rate in transplanted patients.

This review highlights the potential of TCM medicinal foods for managing post-COVID disorders and suggests they could provide a safe and efficient long-term therapy due to their milder nature.

This article discusses how medicinal plants, known for their antiviral, immunomodulatory, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties, may help alleviate long-term COVID-19 effects, but emphasizes the need for further clinical trials to confirm safety and efficacy.

This study reviews the performance and safety of synthetic medications like minoxidil and finasteride compared to herbal remedies such as saw palmetto for treating alopecia, highlighting the need for more research to better understand their therapeutic roles and optimize patient care.

This collection of reviews, edited by Ken Lukowiak and Janis Weeks, explores diverse sensory systems across species, including olfaction, echolocation, magnetoreception, and visual adaptations, without presenting new experimental results.

This review discusses the use of the zebrafish lateral line system as a model to study hair cell loss, protection, and regeneration, with potential implications for human hearing research.

This study found that gastrodin promotes the XIAP-DDRGK1 pathway in noise-exposed mice, reducing hearing loss by enhancing ER-phagy and cochlear cell survival.

This study found that robotic training with the Ekso-GT significantly improved body representation and quality of life in spinal cord injury patients compared to conventional physical therapy.

This study identified new genes and compounds affecting hair cell survival during ototoxin exposure using the zebrafish model, potentially aiding in understanding and preventing hearing loss and balance disorders in humans.

This study observed that among patients with Myhre syndrome, those with the SMAD4 gene variant p.Arg496Cys experienced fewer symptoms like hearing loss, while those with the p.Ile500Thr variant often had severe aortic hypoplasia, highlighting the diverse symptom progression and genetic factors of this rare condition.

In this study, a transgenic mouse model was used to demonstrate that targeted cell loss in different tissues led to varying degrees of regenerative outcomes, including reversible impaired glucose tolerance, irreversible hair loss, and permanent moderate deafness.

This review discusses the role of Nrf2 in hearing loss and its potential as a target for developing hearing protection drugs, but reports no new clinical results.

This review provides a comprehensive overview of apoptosis-related molecules in head development, highlighting caspases' roles and associated abnormalities in tissues like the brain, sensory organs, skin, and bones, without reporting new results.

This study reviewed the use of 3D printing and bioprinting for tympanic membrane repair, comparing them with traditional materials and noting their clinical significance, while highlighting the need for further analysis of bio-ink selection strategies involving biopolymers, cells, and drugs.

This report identified three novel genetic mutations associated with congenital ichthyosis in Italian newborns and emphasized the importance of next-generation sequencing for personalized patient management.

In this case report, a novel missense mutation c.1360G>C (p.Ala454Pro) in the MBTPS2 gene was identified in a boy with typical IFAP syndrome and severe atopic features, although no phenotype/genotype correlation was established.

This study found that in noise-exposed FVB/NJ mice and cell models, ivacaftor reduced oxidative stress and hearing damage by maintaining CFTR function and increasing Nrf2 expression, suggesting its potential for treating noise-induced hearing loss.

In this case study, an 8-day-old neonate with holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency showed dramatic improvement in lactic acidosis and overall clinical condition following biotin mega-dose therapy, highlighting the importance of early genetic testing and timely treatment in such metabolic disorders.

This review discusses the diverse roles of Frizzled proteins in developmental and homeostatic processes and reports no new experimental findings.

The study found that while a clinical protocol showed high specificity in detecting scrapie in goats, its low sensitivity suggests many cases might be missed if diagnosis is only based on clinical signs.

In this study, researchers observed that mechanosensory neurons initially develop similar morphologies across different skin regions but diverge post-natally, adapting to the type of skin they innervate, with bone morphogenetic protein signaling crucial for forming Meissner corpuscles in glabrous skin.

This review summarizes the association between 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and depression, discussing potential mechanisms such as neuroactive steroid alterations and neuroinflammation, but reports no new clinical results.
