Harvard and U. Pittsburgh researchers explain carbon monoxide's anti-inflammatory effects
In a study appearing in the April 2007 issue of The FASEB Journal, scientists from Harvard University and the University of Pittsburgh have shown for the first time that the anti-inflammatory effects of carbon monoxide originate within cells' own molecular engines, mitochondria. view more (2007-03-30)
Cell Migration And Inflammation
Chronic inflammation comprises a vast array of diseases that affect millions of people worldwide. Chronic inflammatory diseases include asthma, arthritis, atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, autoimmune diseases and allergies, to name but a few. view more (2005-02-23)
Vitamin E shows possible promise in easing chronic inflammation
With up to half of a person's body mass consisting of skeletal muscle, chronic inflammation of those muscles - which include those found in the limbs - can result in significant physical impairment. view more (2008-12-05)
Researchers explore the emerging role of infection in Alzheimer's disease
A number of chronic diseases are in fact caused by one or more infectious agents. For example, stomach ulcers are caused by Helicobacter pylori, chronic lung disease in newborns and chronic asthma in adults are both caused by Mycoplasmas and Chlamydia pneumonia, while some other pathogens have been associated with atherosclerosis. view more (2008-05-23)
Breakthrough in understanding of blood vessel inflammation
Medical scientists at the University of Leicester have announced a breakthrough in their understanding of blood vessel inflammation - a serious condition which underlies health problems like organ failure in sepsis, the ability to recover from burns, and transplant rejection. The team in the Department of Cardiovascular Sciences at the University... view more... (2004-01-19)
Blood inflammation plays role in Alzheimer's disease
People whose blood shows signs of inflammation are more likely to later develop Alzheimer's disease than people with no signs of inflammation. view more (2007-05-29)
Geisinger study: PTSD causes early death from heart disease
Vietnam veterans who experienced posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were twice as likely to die from heart disease as veterans without PTSD, a new Geisinger study finds. view more (2008-07-07)
Patients with chronic rhinosinusitis have increased incidence of other chronic illnesses
Patients who suffer from chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) also tend to suffer from other chronic illnesses, like asthma, hypertension, and arthritis. view more (2009-10-05)
Could vitamin D, a key milk nutrient, affect how you age?
There is a new reason for the 76 million baby boomers to grab a glass of milk. Vitamin D, a key nutrient in milk, could have aging benefits linked to reduced inflammation, according to a new study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. view more (2007-11-09)
New proteomic method to detect inflammation in amniotic fluid
A score that measures the proteomic profile of amniotic fluid may predict inflammation before delivery. Researchers from Yale University, led by Catalin Buhimschi, have previously identified a set of four protein markers that were closely associated with inflammation in the amniotic fluid. view more (2007-01-16)
Arthritis Drug Helps Debilitating Inflammatory Disease
For children and young adults who suffer from a rare and debilitating disorder called neonatal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID), a drug called anakinra brings marked improvement both in symptoms and the inflammation underlying the disease, a new study shows. view more (2006-08-11)
Pain thresholds linked to inflammation and sleep problems in arthritis patients
Despite recent advances in anti-inflammatory therapy, many rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients continue to suffer from pain. view more (2009-10-29)
Chronic diseases linked to falls in elderly women
Elderly women with chronic diseases, such as arthritis and depression, are at higher risk of falling, finds a study in this week's BMJ. In fact, chronic diseases may account for 30% of falls in this group. Researchers at the University of Bristol surveyed 4,050 women aged 60-79 years about whether they had had a fall in the previous 12 months, how... view more... (2003-09-24)
Innate immune system targets asthma-linked fungus for destruction
A new study shows that the innate immune system of humans is capable of killing a fungus linked to airway inflammation, chronic rhinosinusitis and bronchial asthma. view more (2008-09-03)
Interferon does not slow or stop hepatitis C from worsening, study finds
Interferon does not slow or halt the progression of chronic hepatitis C and advanced liver disease in patients who haven't responded to previous attempts to eradicate the disease, a national study in which the Saint Louis University School of Medicine participated has found. view more (2007-11-09)
Bacterium manipulates the human defence system: The Borrelia bacterium is a master of disguise
Borrelia bacteria are capable of masking themselves in the human body and deceiving the immune defence system. In this way they can hide in the human organism even for periods of years. In their recent studies Professor Seppo Meri and his team have managed to trace the evasive movements of the Borrelia bacterium in the body. Their work is part of... view more... (2005-05-20)
Toward explaining why hepatitis B hits men harder than women
Scientists in China are reporting discovery of unusual liver proteins, found only in males, that may help explain the long-standing mystery of why the hepatitis B virus (HBV) sexually discriminates -- hitting men harder than women. view more (2009-11-19)
Patients with moderate to severe periodontitis need evaluation for heart disease risk
Additional research is called for and patients with moderate to severe periodontitis should receive evaluation and possible treatment to reduce their risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). view more (2009-06-30)
Researchers identify molecular basis of inflammatory bowel disease
Inflammatory bowel diseases, such as Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis, severely impair the lives of more than four million people worldwide. The development of effective therapies against these diseases requires an understanding of their underlying molecular mechanisms. Researchers from the Universities of Cologne and Mainz in Germany, the... view more... (2007-03-15)
