research Large-Scale, Multicenter, Prospective Registry Study of Ripretinib in Advanced GIST: A Real-World Study from China
Ripretinib is effective and safe for treating advanced GIST in Chinese patients, particularly for non-gastric GISTs.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Rationale and Design of a Novel, Phase 3, External and Synthetic Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial of Ritlecitinib 50 mg and 100 mg for Alopecia Areata
Ritlecitinib is being tested for effectiveness and safety in treating severe alopecia areata.
research Multiple endocrine defects in adult-onset Sprouty1/2/4 triple knockout mice
