UCLA scientists present first genetic evidence for why placebos work
Placebos are a sham - usually mere sugar pills designed to represent "no treatment" in a clinical treatment study. The effectiveness of the actual medication is compared with the placebo to determine if the medication works. view more (2009-07-21)

Evidence of estrogen and progesterone hormone allergy has been discovered by Texas researchers
Some women with menstrual cycle disorders like asthma and migraine headaches may be experiencing allergies to their own estrogen and progesterone hormones, Texas researchers have discovered. view more (2006-03-31)
Early treatment is key to combating hepatitis C virus
Canadian researchers have shown that patients who receive early treatment for Hepatitis C virus (HCV) within the first months following an infection, develop a rapid poly-functional immune response against HCV similar to when infection is erradicted spontaneously, according to a new study published in the Journal of Virology. view more (2008-08-11)
Unfolded proteins may protect cells from dying
When cells get stressed, their proteins go unfolded. It's a reaction with a straightforward name: the unfolded protein response. Now, new research from Rockefeller University shows that this phenomenon actually serves a protective role; rather than a sign that the cell has given up, it may be a mechanism by which the cells cope with adversity. view more (2006-12-27)
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)
Brain plays key role in diabetes therapy
The brain plays a major role in the ability of insulin therapy to lower blood sugar in animals with diabetes. view more (2006-01-11)
Genetic and environmental hormonal response to stress in children depends on family context
A study conducted on 346 19-month-old twins by an international team led by Université Laval professor of psychology Michel Boivin reveals that the genetic and environmental bases of hormonal response to stress depend on the context in which a child grows up. view more (2008-02-21)
Research Assessment Exercise: Government and HEFCE Responses and Commons Debate
The Government and Higher Education Funding Council for England responses to the Committee's Report on the Research Assessment Exercise will published today, without comment from the Committee, in its Fifth Special Report. The Government's response confirms many of the Committee's findings and concedes that the system needs looking at, alongside... view more... (2002-06-26)
Researchers study the possible relationship between myopathies and coeliac disease
Inflammatory myopathies are immunological diseases that lead to inflammations in muscular tissue. As of yet, little is known about the cause of these myopathies, but it is believed to be an abnormal immune response by our bodies. view more (2007-02-23)
TB -- hiding in plain sight
Current research suggests that Mycobacterium tuberculosis can evade the immune response. view more (2009-05-22)
Tattooing improves response to DNA vaccine
A tattoo can be more than just a fashion statement - it has potential medical value, according to an article published in the online open access journal, Genetic Vaccines and Therapy. view more (2008-02-07)
A Fishy Tale
Recently returned from the United States, Dr. Breandan Kennedy will establish the largest Irish facility for the study of zebrafish in the Conway Institute of Biomolecular and Biomedical Research, University College Dublin. These tiny, freshwater fish, typically found in rice paddies or slow-moving streams, can be used to study genetics and... view more... (2003-07-10)
Vaccine improves event-free survival for leukemia patients
Patients whose immune system responded to a peptide vaccine for leukemia enjoyed a median remission that was more than three times longer than non-responders, a team led by researchers at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center reports at the 49th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Hematology. view more (2007-12-10)
Early results from clinical trials of 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccines in healthy adults

Bright lights, not-so-big pupils
A team of Johns Hopkins neuroscientists has worked out how some newly discovered light sensors in the eye detect light and communicate with the brain. The report appears online this week in Nature. view more (2009-01-05)
Response to immune protein determines pathology of multiple sclerosis
New research may help reveal why different parts of the brain can come under attack in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). According to a new study in mice with an MS-like disease, the brain's response to a protein produced by invading T cells dictates whether it's the spinal cord or cerebellum that comes under fire. view more (2008-10-14)
Modeling pathogen responses
The search for a vaccination against HIV has been in progress since 1984, with very little success. Traditional methods used for identifying potential cellular targets can be very costly and time-consuming. view more (2007-10-12)
