How bad is malaria anemia? It may depend on your genes
Cell and animal studies conducted jointly by scientists at Johns Hopkins, Yale and other institutions have uncovered at least one important contributor to the severe anemia that kills almost half of the 2 million people worldwide who die each year of malaria. view more (2006-05-12)
Tiny Tampa Bay fish key to evolution of immune system
Armed at first with nothing more than boots, a screen and a bucket, scientists studying a tiny primitive fish that makes up 70 percent of the biomass in Tampa Bay now say they have found the "missing link" marking the point in evolution that led to the development of the modern-day human immune system. view more (2006-10-05)
Studies link cancer, inflammatory disease
The biological processes underlying diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and cancer are fundamentally linked, and should be linked in how they are treated with drugs, a series of MIT studies indicates. view more (2006-04-06)
Fc gamma receptor gene variants associated with rheumatoid arthritis
People with a specific combination of variants of two genes, encoding two different receptors for the antibody Fc gamma, are three times more likely to develop rheumatoid arthritis than individuals with different variant combinations. view more (2005-11-10)
Scientists discover how gold eases pain of arthritis
Scientists at Duke University Medical Center may have solved the mystery surrounding the healing properties of gold - a discovery they say may renew interest in gold salts as a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory diseases. view more (2007-10-23)
High doses of ibuprofen cause significant GI bleeding, despite safety profile
People who take high doses of ibuprofen on a regular basis are three times more likely to experience gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding than those who do not take painkillers. view more (2005-11-02)
New Treatment Promising For Ulcerative Colitis Sufferers
For people with the chronic disease ulcerative colitis, life can be limited to few social functions and trips away from home. view more (2006-01-04)
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)
How can identical twins be genetically different?
They sleep together, eat together, and most people find it impossible to tell them apart. Identical twins who grow up together share just about everything, including their genes. But sometimes only one twin will have health problems when genetics predicts both of them should. view more (2006-07-26)
Data in New England Journal of Medicine show benefits of REMICADE in ulcerative colitis patients
Landmark studies published today in The New England Journal of Medicine demonstrate the benefits of treatment with REMICADE (infliximab) in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). view more (2005-12-09)
Scientists use gene therapy to improve memory and learning in animals
Stanford University neuroscientists have designed a gene that enhances memory and learning ability in animals under stress. view more (2006-11-08)
Hope for arthritis, heart attack, stroke relief found in unique 'acid active' receptor
he fact that arthritis pain and inflammation regularly comes and goes despite drug and other interventions "suggests that additional pathways can rekindle arthritic responses," according to researchers at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston. view more (2005-10-24)
Infection-fighting protein could be key to autoimmune disease, say U-M scientists
Scientists at the University of Michigan Medical School have discovered that a protein called cryopyrin responds to invading bacteria by triggering the activation of a powerful inflammatory molecule called IL-1beta, which signals the immune system to attack pathogens and induces fever to protect the body against infection. view more (2006-01-12)
Study in Science holds promise for a new approach to drug therapy
Researchers believe they have found a way to change the action of 60 percent of currently available medications, in some cases making them many times more effective. view more (2006-04-21)
Mystery solved: Gold's power against autoimmune diseases defined
Gold compounds have been used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases for more than 75 years, but until now, how the metals work has been a mystery. view more (2006-02-27)
Green tea may delay onset of type 1 diabetes
A powerful antioxidant in green tea may prevent or delay the onset of type 1 diabetes, Medical College of Georgia researchers say. view more (2008-10-24)
MUHC and McGill scientists identify gene for debilitating vitamin B12 disease
Scientists at the MUHC and McGill University have identified a gene responsible for a disease that impairs the body's ability to handle vitamin B12 and that may contribute to heart disease, stroke and dementia. view more (2005-12-01)
Protein finding could lead to treatment for inflammatory diseases
A protein that undesirably shields a skin poxvirus from the immune system may become the key ingredient in a new topical treatment for inflammatory diseases. view more (2006-01-12)
Molecular Anatomy of Influenza Virus Detailed
Scientists at the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), part of the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Md., and colleagues at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville have succeeded in imaging, in unprecedented detail, the virus that causes influenza. view more (2007-01-02)
New study proves that pain is not a symptom of arthritis, pain causes arthritis
Pain is more than a symptom of osteoarthritis, it is an inherent and damaging part of the disease itself, according to a study published today in journal Arthritis and Rheumatism. view more (2008-09-30)
