Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease with a complex etiology primarily linked to abnormalities in B lymphocytes within the human body, resulting in the production of numerous pathogenic autoantibodies. Telitacicept is a relatively novel humanized, recombinant transmembrane activator, calcium modulator and cyclophilin ligand interactor fused with the Fc portion (TACI-Fc). It works by competitively inhibiting the TACI site, neutralizing the activity of B-cell lymphocyte stimulator and A proliferation-inducing ligand.

The first identified causative variant was in the gene encoding the desmosomal protein plakoglobin. Naxos disease exhibits fibro-fatty myocardial replacement with immunohistological abnormalities in cardiac protein and signaling pathways, highlighting the role of inflammation and potential anti-inflammatory treatments.

Introduction: Marie-Unna hereditary hypotrichosis (MUHH) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by a specific pattern of hair loss. Initially described in 1925 by Marie-Unna in a German family spanning over seven generations, MUHH represents a previously unidentified form of congenital hypotrichosis. It typically presents as sparse hair at birth with a coarse texture, followed by regrowth during childhood then, finally, gradual hair loss at puberty, resembling pattern of androgenetic alopecia.

Androgenic alopecia (AGA), the most prevalent type of progressive hair loss, currently lacks an effective topical treatment regimen. In this study, we synthesized an ionic liquid (IL) to co-solubilize minoxidil (MXD) and finasteride (FIN) and subsequently formulated them into an in situ thermosensitive ionic liquid/cyclodextrin/poloxamer hydrogel (ICPG), termed M + F@ICPG. M + F@ICPG was developed for the transdermal co-delivery of these two drugs, aiming to provide a multipath therapeutic approach for AGA while avoiding the adverse effects commonly associated with oral FIN and topical MXD tincture.

Gravitational changes have been shown to cause significant abnormalities in various body systems, including the cardiovascular, immune, vestibular, and musculoskeletal systems. While numerous studies have examined the response of the vestibular system to gravitational stimulation, research on functional changes in the peripheral inner ear remains limited. The inner ear comprises two closely related structures: the vestibule and cochlea.
