Australian researchers develop treatment to treat obesity
A team of researchers from the St Vincent's Campus in Sydney have developed a novel way to control the extreme weight loss, common in late stage cancer, which often speeds death. view more (2007-11-06)
Gold Nanorods May Make Safer Cancer Treatment
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology and the University of California, San Francisco, have found an even more effective and safer way to detect and kill cancer cells. view more (2006-03-14)
Scripps research scientists enhance immune system attacks on cancer
In an Early Edition issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) published online on October 20, 2008, the scientists describe how they used multiple tactics to rev up both innate and adaptive immunity to enhance the body's ability to fight cancer. view more (2008-10-22)
Mice stressed in simulated weightlessness show organ atrophy
A ground-based, experimental model used to simulate astronaut weightlessness in space has provided Rutgers scientists an opportunity to study the effects of stress on immune organs. view more (2007-09-04)
Anti-HBe may play a role in the progression of the disease of hepatitis B
Genotype D is found to be the only detected type in different clinical forms of HBV infections, including cirrhosis, among residents of southwestern Iran. A significant association between the presence of anti-HBe antibody and increasing ALT levels among either HBeAg-negative or HBeAg-positive individuals was also determined. view more (2008-04-30)
First European trial for new breast cancer vaccine
European clinical trials are under way in Denmark and the UK testing a new breast cancer vaccine targeted against the HER-2 growth factor.* HER-2 is overexpressed in about a quarter of all breast cancers and has become a key target for new treatments, such as the monoclonal antibody therapy Herceptin. But, the development of a vaccine by Danish... view more... (2002-03-18)
New Cancer Treatment Targets Both Tumor Cells and Blood Vessels
It takes more than one punch to fight tumors. Often, tumors have more than one way of surviving, and attacking the tumor alone is not enough. view more (2008-06-19)
Arsenic aids tumor imaging when joined to cancer-homing drug, UT Southwestern researchers find
Arsenic linked to a drug that binds to the blood vessels of cancerous tumors provides a powerful imaging agent that could one day allow physicians to detect hard-to-find tumors and more closely monitor cancer's response to therapy, researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have found. view more (2008-03-03)
Autism's origins: Mother's antibody production may affect fetal brain
The mothers of some autistic children may have made antibodies against their fetuses' brain tissue during pregnancy that crossed the placenta and caused changes that led to autism, suggests research led by Johns Hopkins Children's Center investigators and published in the February issue of the Journal of Neuroimmunology. view more (2008-02-26)
New images may improve vaccine design for deadly rotavirus
Howard Hughes Medical Institute researchers are reporting the first detailed molecular snapshots of a deadly gastrointestinal virus as it is caught in the grasp of an immune system molecule with the capacity to destroy it. view more (2009-06-12)
Careless talk costs lives in food allergy
A team of scientists, led by the Institute of Food Research (IFR) in the UK, has discovered an immune system malfunction that is likely to play a profound role in food allergy. Food allergy can be life threatening, but understanding the cause has remained a challenge for science. The international team has found that two types of cells stop... view more... (2004-05-05)
University to develop new therapeutics for cancer
Dr Roger Barraclough, from the School of Biological Sciences, is working on a new protein which causes some cancer cells to spread around the body. This protein is being developed to assist in improving the management of breast cancer. view more (2006-07-28)
Combination treatment enhances tetanus vaccination
In studies with mice, Penn State researchers have shown that a combination of retinoic acid - a product the body makes naturally from vitamin A - and PIC, a synthetic immunity booster, significantly elevates the immune system response to a tetanus shot. view more (2005-09-13)
International study findings link acne-like rash to effectiveness of new targeted cancer treatment
Acne is not a condition that anyone would welcome under normal circumstances, but an international study of a new targeted cancer treatment - cetuximab - has shown that patients who developed an acne-like rash responded better to the treatment than those who did not. view more (2004-09-28)
Stripping leukemia-initiating cells of their 'invisibility cloak'
Two new studies reveal a way to increase the body's appetite for gobbling up the cancer stem cells responsible for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a form of cancer with a particularly poor survival rate. view more (2009-07-24)
New targeted treatment for brain tumors shows promise in pre-clinical models
Monoclonal antibody targets key tumor growth factor; Successfully causes brain tumor regression and improves animal survival. view more (2006-02-15)
Xerion Pharmaceuticals Enters Into Option Agreement For Cancer Targets From Tufts University
Martinsried, Germany and Cambridge, MA, February 26, 2003 - Xerion Pharmaceuticals announced today that it has acquired exclusive rights to cancer targets resulting from the collaboration between Xerion and the laboratory of Daniel G. Jay, Ph.D., Professor of Physiology at Tufts University. Xerion plans to generate therapeutic antibodies against... view more... (2003-02-26)
What is the function of lymph nodes?
If we imagine our immune system to be a police force for our bodies, then previous work has suggested that the Lymph nodes would be the best candidate structures within the body to act as police stations - the regions in which the immune response is organised. view more (2009-05-26)
Influenza vaccine causes weaker immune response for rural children
Researchers have found that vaccination against influenza strains seems to be more effective in a semi-urban population than in a rural population of schoolchildren in Gabon, Africa, according to an article in the Dec. 1 issue of The Journal of Infectious Diseases. view more (2007-10-23)
Molecular evolution of influenza A viruses circulated in Fujian Province, China
Fujian Center for Disease Control & Prevention, China, reported the molecular evolution of influenza A (H3N2) viruses in Fujian Province, south of China during the period 1996 - 2004 and demonstrated some key codons responsible for antigenic drift. The study is reported in Issue 51 (April, 2008) of the Science in China Series C: Life Science... view more... (2008-04-01)
