Melatonin may protect inner ear cells from damage by reducing cell death and oxidative stress, potentially treating sudden hearing loss.

This review discusses the health risks of mercury from dental amalgam, including higher levels of mercury in dentists and pregnant women, and suggests using composite resins instead.

This study reported that the Fe@C/CB electrocatalyst effectively detected Metol in water samples with a low detection limit, high sensitivity, and good stability, suggesting it as a promising tool for environmental monitoring.

This paper reviews chemical analysis methods for trace elements in human hair and supports a no-wash policy due to challenges in distinguishing between endogenous and exogenous element sources.

This study adapted a method for culturing melanocytes from human hair follicles to horses, successfully creating partially melanotic equine melanocytes, potentially advancing hair follicle biology research across species.

This study established an experimental model to visualize calcium ion distribution after skin barrier damage in canine epidermis, observing that calcium gradients changed differently depending on the type of damage and time elapsed.

In this review, skin changes like hair loss and brittle nails linked to nutritional deficiencies common in eating disorders are examined as critical diagnostic tools, highlighting the need for integrated care involving dermatologists, psychiatrists, and nutritionists for effective management.

This study found that inhibiting the ATR kinase with VE-822 impairs DNA repair capability in quiescent human keratinocytes exposed to solar-simulated UV radiation, suggesting ATR's critical role in facilitating effective DNA damage repair and cellular recovery under UV stress conditions.

This study found that a highly resistant structure, located at the interface between the cuticle and cortex of human hair, acts as a penetration barrier, which the authors propose to name the "cuticle anchored resistant base" or CARB.

This article discusses Dr. Jane Hightower's findings on the link between mercury exposure from fish consumption and health symptoms, sparking international debate and influencing regulatory advisories, but reports no new clinical results.

In this pilot study, the niostem device, a wearable device delivering low-level electrical stimulation, significantly increased hair density by 19.3% and thickness by 8.8% in male androgenetic alopecia patients over six months without reported adverse events.

In this study, the researchers reported that calcipotriol pre-treatment made photodynamic therapy more effective and safe than conventional treatment for actinic keratosis on the scalp, improving long-term clearance rates, especially for Grade II lesions. However, they suggested larger trials are necessary to corroborate these findings.

This report documents two cases of severe systemic poisoning from heavy metals after short-term use of traditional Chinese medicines for treating damaged or infected tissue.

This study found that children in Alcalá may have lower exposure to calcium and strontium compared to peers in other regions, based on scalp-hair analysis.

This study concluded that using an erbium:YAG laser for calvarium trepanation and granulation tissue induction is comparable to the rose head burr, offering a beneficial alternative method.

This special issue reviews advancements in engineering cell microenvironments for tissue engineering, highlighting various studies on interventions like silk fibroin and platelet-rich plasma, but presents no new empirical findings.

This study identifies a specific subtype of Telogen Effluvium associated with scalp dysesthesia, such as itch or burning, in the absence of any inflammatory scalp disorder or medication association.

This case report describes a patient experiencing nail nonadherence due to sterile matrix scarring associated with valproic acid use, and suggests nail bed excision with sterile matrix grafting as a potential surgical solution.

This study reports that triboelectro-responsive DNA hydrogels, enhanced with conductive polymers and triboelectric stimulation, effectively accelerate wound healing and exhibit strong anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, achieving 99.8% closure of bacterium-infected diabetic wounds in 14 days.

This report describes a 28-year-old male with type 1 diabetes who presented with acrodermatitis enteropathica symptoms, highlighting potential challenges in blood glucose control linked to zinc deficiency.

In this case report, a 7-month-old girl with suspected acrodermatitis enteropathica and severe dermatitis experienced a tragic outcome despite zinc treatment, highlighting the challenges of diagnosing and managing this rare genetic disorder.

This study found that radiation negatively impacts the survival and proliferation of fibroblasts on human dermis transplants, but hair follicle pores enhance cell viability even after irradiation.

This study suggests that applying topical Tempol to the scalp before whole brain radiation may protect against radiation-induced alopecia and is safe and well-tolerated.

In their research, Yucel and colleagues found that CaV1.2 is expressed in hair follicle stem cells, facilitating anagen re-entry in a way not dependent on calcium flux.

This study demonstrated that certain metal salts can bind to sodium valproate and discussed the potential link to hair loss in patients treated for epilepsy.

This study suggests that particulate matter can induce inflammation in human outer root sheath cells, potentially affecting hair growth, through oxidative stress-dependent MAPK and JAK-STAT signaling pathways.

This study found that external light can rapidly activate hair follicle stem cells in animals via a retinal light-sensing pathway linked to the central and autonomic nervous systems.

This study identified key cells and pathways needed for the development of touch receptor patterns in mouse skin, notably that certain keratinocytes are crucial for innervation patterns, while Merkel cells and BMP signaling have distinct roles.

Low oxygen levels can make hair-growing cells better at growing hair through a process involving reactive oxygen species.
