research Bexxar, iodine I 131 tositumomab, Effective in Long Term Follow-up of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Bexxar is highly effective as a first treatment for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, with most patients alive and many in remission after eight years.
research 376 Tsc2 disruption in mesenchymal progenitors regulates hair follicles and TGF beta signaling
Disrupting the Tsc2 gene in certain cells leads to thicker skin, larger hair, and changes in hair growth signaling, which can be partly reversed with specific treatment.
