November 2017 in “Neurotoxicity research/Neurotoxicity resarch” 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.
June 2026 in “Drug Delivery and Translational Research” This study developed a spring-driven microneedle booster that improved early and cumulative delivery of minoxidil, accelerating hair regrowth compared to traditional roller methods in an androgenetic alopecia model.
This study observed that methylene blue, a mitochondrial-targeted antioxidant, promotes hair follicle stem cell proliferation and viability through reduced oxidative stress and enhanced β-catenin signaling, and it may also protect against hair loss related to glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists by reducing metabolic stress.
