HONG KONG – Preclinical data from a Sino-US study suggest that a tyrosine kinase inhibitor originally developed to treat lymphoma and leukemia, Imbruvica (ibrutinib, Abbvie Inc./Johnson & Johnson), could also target glioma stem cells (GSCs), effectively controlling glioblastoma growth.

A Chinese study has for the first time identified a key protein, known as LIMA1, which was shown to regulate intestinal cholesterol absorption in both mouse models and in humans.
