Researchers develop a new cell and animal model of inflammatory breast cancer
CHICAGO, IL (April 4, 2012)Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a very aggressive, often misunderstood type of cancer that is diagnosed more frequently in younger women compared with other types of breast cancer. The five-year survival rate is between 25 and 50 percentsignificantly lower than the survival rate for other types ...
Study shows how morphine creates inflammatory response in the brain
An international team of researchers involving the University of Adelaide and University of Colorado has made a major discovery that could lead to more effective treatment of severe pain using morphine.
The Clinical Prediction Of Mortality In COPD Improved By Inflammatory Biomarkers
The addition of changes in inflammatory biomarkers to established clinical variables improves the prediction of mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), according to a new study. "COPD is characterized by low-grade inflammation, so we hypothesized that the addition of inflammatory biomarkers to established predictive factors would improve ...
Key Protein In Inflammatory Brain Damage Blocked By Japanese Traditional Therapy, Honokiol
Microglia are the first line defence of the brain and are constantly looking for infections to fight off. Overactive microglia can cause uncontrolled inflammation within the brain, which can in turn lead to neuronal damage. New research published in BioMed Central's open access Journal of Neuroinflammation shows that, honokiol ...

Predicting COPD Mortality – Using Inflammatory Biomarkers Improves Accuracy
According to a study published online ahead of print publication in the American Thoracic Society's American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, adding inflammatory biomarkers to established clinical variables significantly improves the prediction of mortality in patients suffering with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)...
Anti-Inflammatory Drugs May Offer Novel Treatment For Heart Disease, Say Gene Researchers In Large Study
A large international study indicates that anti-inflammatory drugs may become a new tool for preventing and treating coronary heart disease (CHD), the leading global cause of death. In investigating a specific gene variant linked to inflammation and heart disease, the researchers used the Cardiochip, a gene analysis tool designed by ...

Preventing Heart Disease – Using Genetics To Create Anti-Inflammatory Drugs
Two large international meta-analyses have discovered convincing new evidence that interleukin-6 receptor (IL6R), a protein that plays a role in inflammatory signaling, has a causal affect on the development of coronary heart disease (CHD). The findings, published Online First in The Lancet, indicate that drugs targeting this IL6R-mediated signaling inflammatory ...
