A drug tested on lab mice slows and may even halt the progress of Parkinson's, offering the brightest pharmacological hope in decades of rolling back this tragic disease, US researchers report on Sunday. Isradipine, already licensed for treatment for high blood pressure, rejuven...Talcum Powder Curbs Lung Tumor Risk
...ndostatin prevents new blood vessels from forming, slows cell growth and movement, and even induces nearby tumor cells to commit suicide. All of these make it hard for tumors to grow and spread into healthy lung tissue. When endostatin was first discovered in 1997, doctors hoped its tumor-fighting proper...Stress Protein Inactivation Cuts Alzheimer's Peptide in Mice

In a related finding, the team reported that a possible factor in the reduction of nutrients to the fetuses in undernourished adolescent ewes is a change in the development of blood vessels supplying nutrie...Researcher Studying Disease That Cripples Newborns
...rams. Currently, there is no treatment that either slows down or cures this disorder. Changing this prognosis is a goal of Dr. Mahadevan. Over the next two years, the Rachel Fund will be providing $239,756 (Canadian) for his research. In a groundbreaking study published last year, Dr. Mahadevan and his U...Drug Treatment Slows Decline in Lung Function in COPD Patients

T...NIH Study Normal Brain Development in Children Across US
...s. We dont know whether every childs performance slows during adolescence, or whether some children continue to improve, while others do not," Dr. Waber said. "It's also possible that our standard tests dont measure what really changes in adolescence. As we follow these children over time, we will have a...Doctors Warned Against Encouraging Elective Caesareans

This diminishing of the cancerogenous area is possible, according to the scientist, thanks to the stimulation of the immune system, since the introduction of the correct gene i...New Target for Muscular Dystrophy Drug Therapy Discovered
...ion in muscle cells. The production of utrophin slows in foetal muscles soon after birth, following which dystrophin takes over as the primary muscle-associated protein. How this normal utrophin silencing occurs has been a mystery for long, according to the background information in an article published......aid: "From our tests, we can conclude that smoking slows the muscle protein synthesis machinery - probably impairing day to day upkeep of muscle. We are all well aware of the ill affects of smoking on the lungs but our study reveals yet another cause of ill-health associated with smoking.
