A-level physics for the twenty-first century
Advancing Physics is a completely new approach to A-level physics, produced by the Institute of Physics. It brings physics teaching firmly into the twenty-first century using relevant and up-to-date examples of physics from everyday life. As well as pupil and teacher text books , the course is supported by a CD-Rom containing a huge amount of... view more... (1999-12-09)
Massey researchers induce cell death in leukemia
Researchers from the Virginia Commonwealth University Massey Cancer Center today presented preclinical research at the American Association of Cancer Research's annual meeting suggesting the potential of a new combination treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). view more (2007-04-17)
Different anticoagulant regimens yield equal results
Patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) receiving early invasive treatment including angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have comparable results at 1 year in terms of mortality and ischemic outcomes no matter which of three different anticoagulant regimens they are on. view more (2007-12-05)
Curacyte scientists discover new anti-tumour agents
Curacyte AG, a Munich-based drug development company focused on novel treatments of inflammatory diseases, thrombotic disorders and cancer has announced today that its scientists have discovered a series of novel small molecule inhibitors of matriptase, a trypsin-like serine protease. Matriptase is an important mediator in the degradation of the... view more... (2003-06-17)
Gene-regulating enzyme is also a target for anti-depressive drugs
In 2005, professor Ramin Shiekhattar, Ph.D., at The Wistar Institute and his colleagues reported details about an enzyme involved in appropriately repressing sets of neuronal genes in non-neuronal cells. view more (2006-06-26)
UC Davis researchers shed new light on how chemotherapy-induced leukemia develops
Topoisomerase II inhibitors are among the most successful chemotherapy drugs used to treat human cancer. view more (2005-11-16)
Researchers detail how aging undermines bone healing
Researchers have unraveled crucial details of how aging causes broken bones to heal slowly, or not at all, according to study results published today in the Journal of Bone and Mineral Research. The research team also successfully conducted preclinical tests on a potential new class of treatments designed to "rescue" healing capability... view more... (2009-01-16)
Fighting cancer with aspirin?
When looking for new weapons in the war on cancer, scientists should turn to their medicine cabinets for an age-old remedy-aspirin. According to scientists at the University of Newcastle (UK), aspirin has cancer-fighting effects that extend beyond already understood Cox inhibitors. view more (2006-10-02)
Angiotensin inhibitors and receptor blockers linked to lower risk of nonmelanoma skin cancer
The use of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) was associated with a reduced risk of basal cell or squamous cell skin cancers in U.S. veterans, researchers report in the August 26 online issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. view more (2008-08-27)
Phytochemicals may protect cartilage, prevent pain in joints
Johns Hopkins researchers have discovered that plant-derived compounds known for their ability to protect tissue also appear to block the activity of an enzyme that triggers inflammation in joints. view more (2005-10-04)
Olive oil contains natural anti-inflammatory agent
A naturally occurring chemical found in extra-virgin olive oils is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent, report scientists from the Monell Chemical Senses Center and collaborators at the University of Pennsylvania, The University of the Sciences in Philadelphia, and Firmenich, Inc. view more (2005-09-01)
Developing cancer treatments directed at critical developmental pathway
Researchers from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and colleagues discovered that the Notch signaling pathway, which determines the development of many cell types, and is also implicated in some cancers, is not universally essential for the maintenance of stem cells. view more (2008-04-11)
A fatty acid found in milk may help control inflammatory diseases
One of the isomers of conjugated linoleic acid, a group of fatty acids found in milk, is a natural regulator of the COX-2 protein, which plays a significant role in inflammatory disease such as arthritis and cancer. view more (2005-10-19)
Gentech breakthough for ecological Chrysanthemums
Researchers at Plant Research International in the Netherlands have achieved a breakthrough in the development of chrysanthemums with resistance to thrips, bringing the ecological cultivation of chrysanthemums a step closer. This is the conclusion of the thesis with which Seetharam Annadana, a Plant Research International guest member of staff... view more... (2001-12-13)
Blood pressure drugs associated with reduced risk of esophageal, pancreatic and colon cancers
Thousands of individuals currently taking angiotension converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, a type of medication commonly used to lower blood pressure, may be doing more than treating their hypertension. view more (2006-05-24)
Using coxibs and NSAIDs to treat osteoarthritis
A panel of arthritis research experts has recommended that coxibs and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) must remain a significant part of the tool kit used in treating osteoarthritis (OA). view more (2007-08-13)
Jefferson scientists show 'miracle' cancer drug Gleevec can be toxic to the heart
Gleevec, the wildly successful poster-child of a new generation of cancer drugs aimed at specific targets in the cancer cell, can be dangerous to the heart. Not only that, but other similarly based drugs - called tyrosine kinase inhibitors - could lead to heart problems as well. view more (2006-07-24)
Cholinesterase inhibitors reduce aggression, wandering and paranoia in Alzheimer's disease
Cholinesterase inhibitors, used to treat cognitive symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, are also a safe and effective alternative therapy for the behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia, according to a study that appears in the December 2008 edition of Clinical Interventions in Aging. view more (2008-12-10)
Hormone drug type makes survival difference in advanced breast cancer
Aromatase inhibitors, a type of hormone therapy used to treat advanced breast cancer in postmenopausal women, result in a small but significant increase in overall survival when compared to other hormone treatments, according to a new systematic review of studies. view more (2007-01-31)
Sound understanding of indoor acoustics could make hearing easier
An innovative technique that, for the first time, accurately measures exactly how sound behaves in 'real-world' situations is now under development-and could improve acoustics in buildings ranging from concert halls to railway stations. view more (2006-09-08)
