This case report documents the first successful management of accidental minoxidil toxicosis in a dog, resulting in full recovery after treatment with supportive care, including medications for blood pressure and potential toxicity mitigation.

This study developed a novel hair-straightening shampoo incorporating a polyphenol–inorganic sulfate redox agent, finding that it effectively straightens hair while enhancing strength and reducing damage due to its protective polyphenol coating.

This study developed a quercetin-encapsulated and polydopamine-integrated nanosystem that reshapes the perifollicular microenvironment, showing potential for rescuing hair follicle viability and regenerating hair follicles in androgenic alopecia by scavenging reactive oxygen species and promoting angiogenesis.

This study found that a dopamine-methacrylated hyaluronic acid hydrogel enhances the efficacy of adipose-derived stem cells in promoting skin regeneration, potentially involving the Notch signaling pathway.

In this study, the pharmacological action of dobutamine on rabbit retinae was found to be distinct from that of other dopamine analogs like apomorphine and N-methyl-dopamine.

This study found that progesterone pretreatment in rats potentiated the effect of ethanol on mesocortical dopamine levels, suggesting an influence of neuroactive steroids on ethanol's action.

This review discusses the neurobiology of sexual function and reports no new results; the authors cover multiple endocrine and neurotransmitter influences on sexual desire, arousal, and orgasm stages.

This study found that early life stress significantly affects hedonic sensitivity to high-palatable food by altering gonadal hormones in prenatally-stressed male and female rats, with sex-dependent changes in reward-related behaviors and neurochemistry.

In this study, the researchers developed a hydrogel mimicking the fetal environment that significantly accelerated wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in vivo, with over 94% wound closure in 14 days, surpassing hydrogels lacking certain additives.

This study developed a hydrogel dressing incorporating angelica polysaccharides, demonstrating enhanced wound healing properties in a mouse model by promoting rapid hemostasis, tissue healing, and new blood vessel formation compared to Tegaderm™ film.

This study observed no teratogenic effects of oral decongestants and surprisingly favorable neonatal outcomes in Swedish women who used them during pregnancy.

The hydrogel helps heal diabetic wounds by combining antibacterial, antioxidant, and immune-boosting effects.

This study developed a bilayer bionic skin scaffold that mimics the skin's structure to resist microbial invasion and enhance wound healing, with in vivo animal studies showing improved collagen deposition, neovascularization, and hair follicle formation.

This study found that in male rats, chronic finasteride treatment reduced allopregnanolone levels, which, upon drug withdrawal, correlated with increased pro-inflammatory cytokines and altered neurotransmitter levels.

This study found that finasteride significantly reduced levodopa-induced dyskinesia in both male and female rats without diminishing l-DOPA's motor benefits, indicating potential for clinical trials in Parkinson's patients.

This study reported that toxic shock syndrome, originally noted in children, is now predominantly associated with menstruating women, with some experiencing recurrence and complications like vocal cord paralysis and impaired finger sensation.

This study found that an intranasal gel containing risperidone-loaded glycethosomes significantly enhanced drug bioavailability and improved neuroprotective, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects in schizophrenia-induced rats compared to oral therapies, suggesting a promising alternative for schizophrenic patients who struggle with adhering to oral medication.

This case report describes a man who ingested a large amount of topical minoxidil solution and experienced serious and prolonged cardiovascular effects despite rapidly decreasing serum concentration levels.

This study found that Adiantum capillus-veneris extract exhibited significant antidepressant and anti-anxiety effects in rats, likely due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

This study found that minoxidil prevents long-term serotonergic toxicity induced by MDMA in rats, primarily by opening mitochondrial KATP channels and involving Akt and MAP kinases in its neuroprotective mechanism.

This study found that cutaneous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate hydrolase activity may be carried out by an enzyme different from the classical tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase in human and mouse skin.

This study developed a degradable and bioactive citrate-based polyurethane adhesive that achieves rapid and strong tissue adhesion, exhibiting improved bonding strength in wet environments, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and hemostatic properties, with potential to enhance wound healing by promoting angiogenesis.

This study found that arylsulfatase enzymes in hair follicles can convert the active form of minoxidil back to its inactive form, potentially affecting its effectiveness in treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that synthetic melanin particles applied topically in mouse injury models improved wound healing, showing potential as a therapy for accelerated healing, including in human skin explants.

In this study, a biocompatible zinc oxide nanocomposite loaded with the anticancer drug 9-Br-Nos demonstrated effective drug delivery and cytotoxicity against lung cancer cells in vitro, while also proving non-toxic to healthy cells, suggesting its potential for targeted lung cancer treatment.
