Therapeutic role found for carbon monoxide

In a medical case of Jekyll and Hyde, carbon monoxide ?the highly toxic gas emitted from auto exhausts and faulty heating systems ?has proven effective in treating the symptoms of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), an extremely debilitating condition that typically leads to right heart failure and eventual death. The new findings, made in an animal study led by researchers at Beth Isra...

Research to spotlight carbon monoxide benefits

Scientists at the University of York have won a grant of £110,000 to investigate potential uses of carbon monoxide in treating disease. Dr Jason Lynam and Dr Ian Fairlamb, of the University's Department of Chemistry, have been awarded the funding by the Leverhulme Trust for a three-year study into the use of metal compounds for the controlled release of carbon monoxide into the bloodstrea...

New study reports hotel guests at risk from carbon monoxide poisoning

Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning kills over 200 people every year in the United States. Although inexpensive CO detectors have been available since 1989, their use in hotels, motels and resorts is not widespread. In fact, while every guest room in the U.S. must contain a smoke detector, there is no federal mandate for CO detectors. In a study published in the July issue of the American Journal o...

Carbon monoxide passes down

Legislation pointed at reducing carbon monoxide emissions has resulted in a drop in poisoning deaths. Carbon monoxide can be fatal if inhaled and is involved in a number of accidental deaths and suicides each year. //The main sources of carbon monoxide are vehicle emissions and malfunctioning domestic heating equipment. In 1980, the Clean Air Act was passed in the US to reduce carbon mono...

Damage to arteries from injury can be avoided with carbon monoxide

Heart ailments that are treated with angioplasty or a transplantation may result in injury of the arteries. While in transplantation there is an ever-present risk of rejection of the// organ, in angioplasty, placing a balloon in the artery causes damage to the vessel walls. This in turn triggers the immune system response. A new study has however, revealed that pre-treatment with carbon m...

Hearing loss can happen from regular exposure to carbon monoxide

Animal studies have shown the regular exposure to carbon monoxide can damage// the ears of young children. Carbon monoxide enters into the atmosphere from kerosene and gas stove combustions, generators and other liquid fuel powered equipments, car exhaust and tobacco smokes. At moderate concentrations carbon monoxide can cause angina, poor vision, and at times brain function impairment...

Research Shows Carbon Monoxide Prevents Inflammations

Researchers from the University of Michigan Cardiovascular Center had presented new findings// on the properties of the gas carbon monoxide that can cure inflammations in patients who had undergone organ transplants, strokes, or heart attacks. In a recent study the scientists had found that inhaling small amounts of carbon monoxide for several weeks after transplant surgery prevented t...

Carbon Monoxide May Prevent Pre-Eclampsia

Pre-eclampsia might be prevented if carbon monoxide is used, according to Bainbridge et al., who have published a paper called "Carbon monoxide inhibits // hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced apoptosis and secondary necrosis in syncytiotrophoblast." This report is published in the September issue of The American Journal of Pathology. Pre-eclampsia, a form of pregnancy-associated hypertension...
