The Dawn spacecraft found that Ceres has complex organic molecules and a lot of water ice, hinting it might support life.

This report describes a new case of isolated trichothiodystrophy with characteristic brittle hair and suggests a simplified classification scheme for understanding sulfur-deficient hair disorders.

This article reviews the role of sulfhydryl compounds, particularly cystine, in sulfur metabolism and the physiology of skin in both normal and pathological conditions, reporting no new findings.

In this study, researchers found that polysulfides in human hair keratin contribute to hair strength and antioxidant capacity, with sulfur supplementation enhancing hair strength and cuticle structure amid oxidative stresses such as UV radiation.

Chitosan/LiCl composite scaffolds help heal deep skin wounds better.

This study found that a new SIS-PEG sponge promoted rapid skin defect healing in mice and showed potential for reconstructing reconstituted skin with regenerated hair.

In this study, small molecule-loaded silk fibroin nanofiber scaffolds with chitosan achieved sustained release of GSK-3 inhibitor SB216763, leading to enhanced wound healing and hair follicle neogenesis in skin regeneration efforts.

This case report describes white piedra infection of the scalp hair with a synergistic bacterial infection in two US native sisters, highlighting its relevance in diagnosing scalp hair concretions despite its rarity in North America.

In this study, sodium fluoride at certain concentrations increased the MDA levels in cultured human hair follicles, while 0.01 mmol/L sodium selenite reduced this effect at lower fluoride concentrations.

This study suggests that human keratin fiber matrix has a well-defined nano-scale grainy structure rather than being amorphous, with grain size influenced by chemical treatments, temperature, humidity, and follicle-level factors.

This study comprehensively compared different crystalline forms of finasteride, including the new finasteride DMF solvate hemihydrate, to better understand their structural characteristics and intermolecular interactions.

This study observed unique ultrastructural changes in a 4-year-old girl with pili trianguli et canaliculi that may affect hair shaft surface characteristics due to inner root sheath alterations.

This case report describes an 8-year-old child with Down's syndrome who presented with eruptive syringomas on the face and hand.

This study used Cisd2 knockout mice models and found that these mice display premature aging characteristics and an increase in dysfunctional neutrophils, suggesting Cisd2's role in calcium homeostasis and neutrophil function via interactions with Calnexin and SERCA.

This study found that rebonding hair straightening treatments visibly damage the hair cuticle, causing surface erosion and cracks, as shown through Scanning Electron Microscopy analysis.

In this study, a silk-inspired hydrogel system was developed that combines photodynamic therapy and wound healing, which may significantly reduce melanoma recurrence and enhance healing of infected wounds.

This study by Gerald Combs suggests that selenium may help prevent cancer, but both deficiency and excess can lead to serious health problems.

In this study, researchers examined two new cases of trichothiodystrophy and observed that the condition is linked to decreased synthesis of high-sulfur matrix proteins in hair.

This study developed a catalytic system using indenyl-molybdenum(II)-bipyridine complexes and ionic liquid solvents to achieve a 95% yield of campholenic aldehyde from α-pinene oxide under mild conditions.

This study found that sodium metabisulfite activates sodium channels and increases cellular excitability and excitotoxicity in both cardiomyocyte and neuron models, which exacerbates seizures and neuronal damage in rats.

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 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.

In this study, researchers developed a new Supported Ionic Liquid Phase palladium catalyst that showed effectiveness in aminocarbonylation reactions for synthesizing pharmaceutical compounds like CX-546 and a precursor of Finasteride, though results were sensitive to substrate variations and prompted palladium leaching concerns.

This study found that incorporating cell-adhesive ligands into 3D peptide hydrogels supports the survival and osteogenic differentiation of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells.

This study found that an Enterobacter isolate demonstrated high resistance to selenate and effective sorption capacity, suggesting potential for bioremediation of selenium-contaminated environments.

This study found that Silibinin-loaded polymeric micelles significantly protected human hair from UV-B induced structural and chemical damage by preventing increases in roughness and reducing protein loss.
