This study observed very high thallium levels in small mammals near a zinc smelter in Poland, accompanied by severe population and health impacts.

In this study, ELE was found to protect against oxidative stress-induced testosterone reduction in TM3 Leydig cells by increasing testosterone synthesis and decreasing its conversion.

This case report highlights that macro-TSH, a rare condition causing falsely elevated TSH despite normal thyroid hormone levels, can lead to misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatment; identifying TSH antibodies and fractionation chromatography can prevent incorrect management, as demonstrated in a 19-year-old patient.

This study found that hydroxytyrosol significantly alleviated acute liver injury in mice by suppressing inflammation and targeting the TNF-α/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

This study found that formulating raloxifene in nano-lipid carriers significantly enhanced its permeation and cytotoxicity against cancer cells compared to raw raloxifene.
