17β-Estradiol acts separately on the LDL particle and artery wall to reduce LDL accumulation
Estrogen replacement therapy has been shown to attenuate atherogenesis, although the mechanisms for this effect are incompletely defined. Previously, we showed that 17-β estradiol (estradiol) attenuated oxidant stress-induced increases in vascular low ...

Drug–drug interaction profile of ritlecitinib as perpetrator and victim through cytochrome P450
Aims To assess the effect of a potent cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A inhibitor and CYP inducer on the pharmacokinetics of ritlecitinib, a JAK3/TEC family kinase inhibitor, and assess the effect of ritlecitinib on the pharmacokinetics of CYP substrates (midazolam, efavirenz, tolbutamide, caffeine and oral contraceptives [ethinyl oestradiol and levonorgestrel])

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).
