Some problems and errors in cytogenetic biodosimetry [PDF]
, 2016 Human radiosensitivity is a quantitative trait that is generally subject to binomial distribution. Individual radiosensitivity, however, may deviate significantly from the mean (by 2-3 standard deviations).

Adsorption of molybdenum by melanin [PDF]
Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine, 2019 Melanin is detectable in various sense organs including the skin in animals. It has been reported that melanin adsorbs toxic elements such as mercury, cadmium, and lead. In this study, we investigated the adsorption of molybdenum, which is widely recognized as a toxic element, by melanin.Molybdenum level of the mouse skin was measured by inductively ...

Drosophila tan Encodes a Novel Hydrolase Required in Pigmentation and Vision [PDF]
, 2005 Many proteins are used repeatedly in development, but usually the function of the protein is similar in the different contexts. Here we report that the classical Drosophila melanogaster locus tan encodes a novel enzyme required for two very different ...

Human Skin Models in Biophotonics: Materials, Methods, and Applications
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This review discusses how the optical properties of human skin can be replicated in human skin models. It describes the principles, materials, and techniques used to develop artificial skin for biophotonics research. Finally, the article highlights recent advances and shows how these models improve the study of light‐skin interactions without the need ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Endothelial Colony Forming Cells (ECFCs) acted as cellular cyborgs, stealthily transporting gold nanorods (AuNRs) into tumors to enable targeted near‐infrared (NIR) hyperthermia combined with radiotherapy. This approach triggers ferroptosis in melanoma and inhibits autophagy in breast cancer, revealing a tumor‐specific response to nanomaterial‐assisted
