High risk of migraine, depression and chronic pain for IBS sufferers, large study shows
Patients with irritable bowel syndrome are more likely to suffer from conditions such as migraine or depression than other individuals. view more (2006-09-28)
The good and bad side of anti-cancer compounds
Compounds known as "HDAC inhibitors" exhibit cancer-killing activities in cultured cells. While they are currently being tested as anti-cancer agents in clinical trials, just how they execute their effects is unclear. view more (2008-04-11)
U of Minn researchers discover genetic cancer link between humans and dogs
Cancer researchers at the University of Minnesota and North Carolina State University have found that humans and dogs share more than friendship and companionship - they also share the same genetic basis for certain types of cancer. view more (2008-02-29)
Rare immune cell is key to transplant's cancer-killing effect
Researchers at the University of Michigan's Comprehensive Cancer Center have discovered the secret weapon behind the most powerful form of cancer immunotherapy known to medicine. view more (2005-10-17)
University of Pittsburgh discovers genetic 'shut down' trigger in healthy immune cells
A fundamental genetic mechanism that shuts down an important gene in healthy immune system cells has been discovered that could one day lead to new therapies against infections, leukemia and other cancers. view more (2007-05-10)
Discovery in 'Bubble Boy' disease gene therapy
Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have developed a mouse model of a severe disease of the immune system that helps explain why gene therapy used to treat children with this disease at an institution in Europe caused some of them to develop leukemia. view more (2006-08-02)
Prescribing information for kidney disease far too vague

Long-term narcotics use for back pain may be ineffective and lead to abuse
Narcotic drugs (opioids) are commonly prescribed for short-term relief of chronic back pain, but their effectiveness long-term has been questioned in a review article by researchers at Yale School of Medicine, who also found that behaviors consistent with opioid abuse was reported in 24 percent of cases. view more (2007-01-18)
UAB Researchers Discover Antibody Receptor Identity, Propose Renaming Immune-System Gene
Researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) have uncovered the genetic identity of a cellular receptor for the immune system's first-response antibody, a discovery that sheds new light on infection control and immune disorders. view more (2009-11-20)
Inherited risk factors increase odds of developing childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have identified inherited variations in two genes that account for 37 percent of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), including a gene that may help predict drug response. view more (2009-08-17)
Codeine may be no cure for cough
Scientists at the University of Manchester's North West Lung Centre have found that codeine-a standard ingredient in cough remedies - could be no more effective than an inactive placebo compound at treating cough. view more (2006-05-19)
Interferon-treated hepatitis C patients likely to experience retinopathy
Persons with chronic hepatitis C being treated with Interferon (IFN) are at risk of developing retinopathy as early as two weeks into treatment according to the results of a new study published in the January 2007 issue of Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science (IOVS). view more (2007-01-04)

Cooling analgesia harnessed to relieve chronic pain
By experimentally activating a special protein involved in mediating sensations of coolness, researchers have made a breakthrough in understanding how the body's nervous system can be stimulated to relieve chronic pain. view more (2006-08-22)
Hormone irregularities linked to chronic migraine
Hormonal irregularities may explain why migraine becomes chronic, shows research in the Journal of Neurology Neurosurgery and Psychiatry. Around 3 per cent of the population are chronic migraineurs, suffering pounding headaches for around 15 days a month. Hourly blood samples were taken from 17 chronic migraine sufferers, three of whom were men.... view more... (2001-11-23)
iNOS expression may links chronic biliary inflammation to malignant transformation
It is well known that chronic biliary inflammation is a risk factor for biliary carcinogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms of biliary carcinogenesis as a consequence of chronic biliary inflammation remain unclear. view more (2007-12-20)
