research Primary Cicatricial Alopecia and Inflammatory Bowel Disease – Is There a Link?
Some people with primary cicatricial alopecia also have inflammatory bowel disease, suggesting a possible connection.
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 Multiple Skin Cancers in a Patient Within 1 Year of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplant for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
A man got six skin cancers within a year after a cell transplant for leukemia but was cancer-free 32 months later; skin checks are important post-transplant.
