New immune cell found to be a key to inflammatory diseases
The molecular roots of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases such as asthma, arthritis, and multiple sclerosis (MS) have been discovered by a team of researchers led by The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center. view more (2005-10-03)
Poor sleep more dangerous for women
Researchers at Duke University Medical Center say they may have figured out why poor sleep does more harm to cardiovascular health in women than in men. view more (2008-03-11)
Gene variations linked to brain aneurysms
Variations in a gene seem to be linked to brain (cerebral) aneurysms, suggests research published ahead of print in the Journal of Neurology Neurosurgery and Psychiatry. view more (2006-04-27)
Marrow-derived stem cells deliver new cytokine to kill brain tumor cells, offer protection
Attaching a recently discovered cytokine to neural stem cells derived from bone marrow, researchers at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center's Maxine Dunitz Neurosurgical Institute have developed a tool to track and kill malignant brain tumor cells and provide long-term protection against their return. view more (2006-03-01)
IL-21 receptor plays an essential role in the Th2 immune response
During the immune response cells known as Th2 cells express a variety of cytokines (e.g. interleukin-4, -5, and -13), many of which stimulate B cells to proliferate and produce antibodies. view more (2006-06-16)
New study shows antibody-interleukin complexes stimulate immune responses
The findings could also be significant for developing new ways to help patients with autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, or juvenile diabetes. view more (2006-02-23)
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)
Research Reveals Inner Workings of Immune System "Thermostat"
When bacteria, viruses or parasites attack, immune system cells unleash the soldiers. These "hot" protein compounds kill invaders - but also trigger inflammation, which, if unchecked, can destroy tissue, induce shock and kill the host. view more (2006-08-21)
Predicting the risk of death in patients with known coronary artery disease
The extent of anatomic coronary artery disease, along with age and the presence of diabetes, is a strong predictor of subsequent death due to any cause and due to coronary artery disease (CAD). view more (2006-02-14)
Study shows combination of immune substances to be safe
New research has shown that the immune-stimulating hormone known as interleukin-12 (IL-12) can safely be administered with interferon, another immune-system protein, as an experimental therapy for some cancers. view more (2005-12-12)
Hopes raised for effectiveness of multiple sclerosis drug
Discovery of the mechanism of a drug being tested for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) has revealed that it's not only more effective than first thought, but might also help in the management of other autoimmune diseases, organ transplant rejection and even cancer. view more (2006-03-29)
Hopkins scientists link immune response to 'ghost' parasites and severely congested sinuses
Although it's unclear why it's so, scientists at Johns Hopkins have linked a gene that allows for the chemical breakdown of the tough, protective casing that houses insects and worms to the severe congestion and polyp formation typical of chronic sinusitis. view more (2006-09-07)
Carbon monoxide soothes inflammatory bowel disease
Doctors have long known that smokers rarely suffer from a common form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) called ulcerative colitis, but they didn't know why. view more (2005-12-19)
Brain plays key role in regulating bone density
The brain plays an important role in the maintenance of proper bone density, researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have revealed. view more (2005-08-25)
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)
Protein's New Role Discovered in Autoimmune Disease
Investigators at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) have identified the previously unknown role of a chemical 'messenger' leading to autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. view more (2008-01-03)
Pituitary hormone in menopause under study
Regulating a hormone abundant in women approaching menopause could offer alternatives for hormone replacement therapy, Medical College of Georgia researchers say. view more (2006-11-03)
Component of red wine quells inflammation in chronic inflammatory lung disease (COPD)
A component of red wine, resveratrol, seems to damp down the inflammatory process in the progressive lung disease COPD, finds a small study in Thorax. So effective was resveratrol in laboratory tests that the authors suggest that the compound could be developed to treat the disease. COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) is irreversible and... view more... (2003-10-24)
Immunity in social amoeba suggests ancient beginnings
Finding an immune system in the social amoeba (Dictyostelium discoideum) is not only surprising but it also may prove a clue as to what is necessary for an organism to become multicellular, said the Baylor College of Medicine researcher who led the research that appears today in the journal Science. view more (2007-08-03)
New clues to healing arthritis caused by traumatic injury
A strain of laboratory mice that has "superhealing" powers has been found to resist inflammation after a knee injury, and also to avoid developing arthritis at the injury site in the long term, according to researchers at Duke University Medical Center. view more (2009-02-23)
