This study found that combining multiple low-dose exosome injections with NIR-II-responsive selenium telluride-mediated photothermal therapy significantly improved healing in diabetic mice with pressure ulcers, enhancing wound closure, hair follicle regeneration, and collagen remodeling compared to single high-dose exosome treatment.

This book chapter discusses the mechanisms and prevention of selenium toxicity in livestock and reports no new experimental results; it emphasizes reducing selenium in the human food chain through animal products.

This review explores nano-quercetin formulations to enhance the solubility, stability, and targeted delivery of quercetin, highlighting its potential efficacy in treating cancer, inflammation, metabolic diseases, and tissue regeneration, though challenges in biocompatibility, toxicity, and production remain, per this source.

This source describes wound healing as a complex biological process that requires precise regulation and coordination among various cells, cytokines, and signaling pathways to achieve tissue repair, although specific findings or results are not provided in the abstract.

This study found that the Pseudomonas sp. T5-6-I strain significantly increased selenium accumulation and root hair density in Brassica oleracea, highlighting its potential for phytoremediation and biofortification.

This article reviews the use of hair analysis in forensic and environmental toxicology for detecting potentially toxic elements and drugs, but it reports no new research findings.

In this study, cats fed trace minerals complexed with lysine and glutamic acid displayed temporary improvements in hair loss and dander scores at 45 days, compared to those receiving inorganic trace minerals, although no differences were seen by day 90.

This study reported that selenium supplements do not reduce cancer risk and may increase the risk of type 2 diabetes and high-grade prostate cancer, while observational studies suggest mixed associations between selenium exposure and cancer incidence.

This study identified that high concentrations of selenium in a liquid dietary supplement caused a widespread outbreak of poisoning, revealing the importance of stricter manufacturing standards.

This review discusses the various adverse health effects of chronic selenium exposure in humans, including effects on endocrine and immune function, and suggests current exposure limits may be insufficient.

This study concluded that selenium supplementation for ovarian cancer patients during chemotherapy may have several beneficial effects, such as increased antioxidant enzyme activity, reduced chemotherapy-related symptoms, and higher selenium levels in serum and hair.

This study reports that selenium deficiency in children on long-term total parenteral nutrition may lead to symptoms like erythrocyte macrocytosis and skin and hair depigmentation, which improved with selenium supplementation.

This study observed that the intestinal absorption of selenium varies depending on its chemical form, with selenomethionine being absorbed efficiently and selenium as selenodiglutathione or selenodicysteine being absorbed faster than selenite.

This review concludes that although observational studies suggest a potential inverse association between selenium exposure and cancer risk, randomized trials show no convincing evidence that selenium supplements prevent cancer in humans and may indicate harmful effects.

This article describes a case of selenium poisoning in a 36-year-old man who experienced hair loss, nail changes, and paresthesias after taking selenium-containing vitamin tablets.

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 examines the use of selenium and vitamin E supplements for reducing prostate cancer risk, finding mixed evidence that suggests benefits may be limited to individuals with specific risk factors, like low baseline levels or smoking history, rather than broadly applicable.

This article describes a case of selenosis linked to excessive selenium in a nutritional supplement that led to a product recall due to toxicity concerns.

This review discusses the potential benefits and risks of selenium in cancer prevention and treatment, emphasizing that while selenium may offer advantages for tumor patients, further research is needed due to mixed findings regarding diabetes risk.

This study observed that selenium retention in rat hair and nails was influenced by the chemical form of dietary selenium and methionine status, suggesting caution when using these tissues to assess selenium status.

In this study, the Selenium-Chitosan-Mupirocin nanohybrid system significantly enhanced wound healing in a rat model of diabetic wound infection compared to the control, suggesting potential for treating mild diabetic wounds.

This case report found that two women developed toxic selenium levels after consuming paradise nuts, resulting in symptoms like massive hair loss and nail discoloration.

This study found that dietary selenium levels above 5 ppm can lead to selenosis in pigs, with white-haired pigs showing alopecia sooner than dark-haired pigs.

This study found that using selenium sulfide shampoo for seborrheic dermatitis was associated with hair loss, which ceased after discontinuing the shampoo.

This review establishes a tolerable upper intake level of 255 μg/day for selenium in adults, warning that supplements and Brazil nuts may cause excess intake.

This study found that selenium deficiency in mice accelerated age-related conditions and metabolic decline but unexpectedly promoted longevity, suggesting low selenium levels might separate healthspan and lifespan.

Excessive selenium in supplements can cause hair loss and nail issues.

This case report identifies alopecia universalis in a worker as a result of occupational selenium intoxication.

In this study, high selenium diets from different sources caused weight and hair loss in pigs, with additional hoof and coronary band problems particularly in those fed sodium selenate.
