This case report describes a 4.5-year-old boy with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome linked to X-linked recessive ichthyosis, where remission was achieved using cyclosporine, suggesting STS deficiency as a potential genetic cause of the condition.

This report describes a case where selenium supplementation in excess may have led to toxic liver injury, suggesting that high-dose selenium can cause hepatic necrosis.

This report documents a case where a man survived sub-acute toxicity from an overdose of the anticancer drug UFT due to effective treatment with antibiotics and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor.

This study developed a simple method to determine finasteride, indapamide, and tiemonium methylsulfate in pharmaceuticals by using their ability to form silver nanoparticles measurable via spectrophotometry.

This study found that using a bicomponent reduction system with TGA and DTDG for hair straightening limited hair damage by forming only thiol groups, while a TGA-only system formed more damaging mixed disulfide groups.

In this study, the researchers reported that while both propylene glycol and sodium lauryl sulfate enhanced finasteride's skin deposition, ethanol was the only effective enhancer of finasteride's permeation through the skin.

This study found that ion-paired solutions significantly improved the skin penetration of risedronate in hairless mice compared to risedronate alone.

This paper discusses X-linked ichthyosis and its genetic causes, focusing on biochemical pathways and their role in epidermal differentiation and barrier function, but it presents no new clinical findings.

In this study, fluorescence microscopy revealed that a cationic cellulose ether derivative adsorbed onto hair fibers desorbed significantly when treated with sodium dodecylsulfate.

This case study reports the rare occurrence of widespread soft-tissue calcification in a young patient with SLE, suggesting that 99mTe-phosphate compounds could help diagnose this complication.

This study found that regenerating the Pd/C finasteride synthesis catalyst using methanol extraction and nitric acid oxidation achieved a pregnendone conversion of 97.5%.

In this study, treating hair with thioglycolic acid was found to alter disulfide bond patterns in keratin-associated proteins, shifting them from an ellipsoidal to a near-spherical shape.

This study suggests that increased amounts of less stable disulfide conformers in hair shafts may be linked to the brittleness observed in trichothiodystrophy.

Mice hair follicles take in the amino acid cystine.

This study found that treating hair with aqueous KCN converts disulfide bonds to monosulfide crosslinks, affecting the elasticity and crosslink distribution in hair microstructures.

This study developed sodium alginate and epigallocatechin gallate cryogels cross-linked with ferric ions, showing that they have strong antibacterial properties and rapid hemostatic abilities, making them promising candidates for wound dressing applications.

In this study, the reconstructed skin epidermal model derived from hair follicles showed gene expression and enzyme functionality consistent with native human skin, suggesting its viability for studying skin metabolism and potential toxicity of dermo-cosmetic ingredients.

This article reports a case of trichothiodystrophy in a 7-year-old girl with sulfur deficiency in her hair, characterized by sparse, slow-growing hair and distinctive tiger tail banding under microscopy.

This study observed varying levels of polyamines in different compartments of rat hair follicles, indicating their potential involvement in hair growth, especially in the matrix and inner root sheath layers.

This review discusses the uses and toxicological data of eleven unsaturated halogenated hydrocarbons, including dichloroacetylene, allyl chloride, hexachlorobutadiene, β-chloroprene, vinyl chloride, trichloroethylene, and perchloroethylene, but presents no new findings.

This paper reviews the properties, characteristics, and applications of deep eutectic solvents as environmentally friendly alternatives for extracting bioactive compounds from natural sources in the pharmaceutical industry.

This meeting review discusses recent advances in systemic psoriasis treatments, emphasizing the impact of dimethylfumarate monotherapy on understanding psoriasis and treatment strategies; it reports no new clinical results.

Finasteride forms three new products under acidic stress.

This study found that tea-seed saponin modified silicone polymer quaternary ammonium salt significantly improves hair conditioning performance in both dry and wet states when used in shampoo formulations.

In this study, hydrophilic EG7 PTK-UR foams promoted better wound healing and tissue integration in a porcine model compared to more hydrophobic PTK-UR variants and a polyester-based alternative, while matching a collagen-based standard.

This study describes a case series of nine patients experiencing symptoms of selenium toxicity after consuming a liquid dietary supplement with an excess amount of selenium.

This review concluded that WS PRO 160 I 120 mg, a herbal preparation, may be an effective and safer alternative to standard drugs for treating lower urinary tract symptoms in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study found that novel thiol-reactive cross-linking agents, particularly APA, significantly improved the tensile strength and elasticity of human hair fibers by effectively regenerating disulfide bridges, with potential applications for advanced hair repair treatments in the cosmetic industry.
