Reducing inflammation plays key role in type 1 diabetes therapy
Researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) have found that a triple combination therapy consisting of both tolerance-inducing and anti-inflammatory properties is successful in abolishing adverse autoimmunity against insulin-producing cells in a mouse model of Type 1 diabetes. view more (2007-08-01)
Inflammatory genes linked to salt-sensitive hypertension
One key to your high blood pressure might just be your inflammatory genes. It may sound odd but mounting evidence suggests that inflammation, a part of the immune response implicated in diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer's and diabetes, may also help translate stress into high blood pressure. view more (2006-12-28)
Researchers identify molecule that causes destructive lung inflammation in cystic fibrosis patients
Scientists at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC have identified a protein that is critical to the development of inflammation during lung infection in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). view more (2006-11-07)
Discovery of genetic defect may lead to better treatments for common gut diseases
New findings related to an uncommon genetic disorder may impact the diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the most common chronic gastrointestinal illness in children and teens. Two million Americans have IBD which involves inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. view more (2009-10-09)
Antibiotic treatment targets difficult asthma
Hunter researchers have shown that a commonly available antibiotic can improve the quality of life of patients with difficult asthma, and may also generate significant health care savings. view more (2007-12-18)
Targeting oxidized cysteine through diet could reduce inflammation and lower disease risk
A team of scientists at Emory University School of Medicine has identified a direct link between oxidative stress and inflammatory signals in the blood. view more (2009-03-27)
Mayo Clinic links allergies to Parkinson's disease
Researchers from Mayo Clinic have discovered that allergic rhinitis is associated with the development of Parkinson's disease later in life. Findings will be published in the Aug. 8 issue of the journal Neurology. view more (2006-08-08)
UCSD researchers discover inflammation, not obesity, cause of insulin resistance
Researchers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine have discovered that inflammation provoked by immune cells called macrophages leads to insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes. view more (2007-11-07)
Common cooking spice shows promise in combating diabetes and obesity
Turmeric, an Asian spice found in many curries, has a long history of use in reducing inflammation, healing wounds and relieving pain, but can it prevent diabetes? view more (2008-06-23)
Cigarette smoke may alter immune response in COPD exacerbations
Smoking cigarettes is not only the principle cause of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but it may change the body's immune responses to bacteria that commonly cause exacerbations of the disease, according to new research in a mouse model. view more (2009-04-07)
Green tea may help prevent autoimmune diseases
Green tea may help protect against autoimmune disease, Medical College of Georgia researchers say. view more (2007-04-20)
Is cherry juice a new 'sports drink?'
Drinking cherry juice could help ease the pain for people who run, according to new research from Oregon Health & Science University presented at the American College of Sports Medicine Conference in Seattle, Wash. view more (2009-05-29)
Lithium chloride slows onset of skeletal muscle disorder
A new UC Irvine study finds that lithium chloride, a drug used to treat bipolar disorder, can slow the development of inclusion body myositis, a skeletal muscle disease that affects the elderly. view more (2008-03-19)
New Laser-Based Imaging for Early Diagnosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis

Smokers with common autoimmune disorder at higher risk for skin damage
As if there weren't enough reasons to stop smoking, a team of researchers at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre (RI-MUHC) have just found another. view more (2009-11-03)
Noninvasive magnetic resonance imaging may help predict who's at risk for a heart attack
The study suggests that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)—a highly sensitive technique that provides three-dimensional views of tissue at the molecular level—effectively measured macrophages or white blood cells, in the arterial walls of blood vessels. view more (2007-01-29)
Inflammatory disease treatments will improve through the use of lipidomics
According to the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, 46 million Americans have arthritis. view more (2009-09-02)
Blocking previously unrecognized links between inflammatory systems could make COX-2 inhibitors safe
A recently identified path of inflammation once thought to be wholly independent of other inflammatory systems has now been linked to another major pathway. view more (2005-12-23)
Largest gene study of childhood IBD identifies 5 new genes
In the largest, most comprehensive genetic analysis of childhood-onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), an international research team has identified five new gene regions, including one involved in a biological pathway that helps drive the painful inflammation of the digestive tract that characterizes the disease. view more (2009-11-16)
GSU study first to confirm long-term benefits of morphine treatment in infants
A recent study conducted by researchers at Georgia State University is the first of its kind to demonstrate that administration of preemptive morphine prior to a painful procedure in infancy blocks the long-term negative consequences of pain in adult rodents. view more (2008-11-04)
