Stomach Cancer Bacterium Increases Colorectal Cancer Risk
A bacterium known for causing stomach cancer might also increase the risk of certain colorectal cancers, particularly among African Americans. An association of the bacteria Helicobacter pylori, the primary cause of gastric cancer, and risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) have been reported. More...24 Oct 2018
Link Between Gut Flora and MS Discovered
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an immune-mediated autoimmune disease of the central nervous system that develops in genetically susceptible individuals and likely requires environmental triggers. In MS the body's own immune system attacks and damages the protective coating around nerve cells. More...22 Oct 2018
Kidney Function Decline Linked with Inflammatory Marker Levels
Tumor necrosis factor receptor-1 (TNFR-1), which plays a causative role in endothelial cell dysfunction and inflammation, is expressed on the cell surface in glomerular and peritubular capillary endothelium of the kidneys. More...15 Oct 2018
Urine Biopsies Help Monitor Bladder Cancer Treatment
Despite the advances in cancer immunotherapy, only a fraction of patients with bladder cancer exhibit responses to checkpoint blockade, highlighting a need to better understand drug resistance and identify rational immunotherapy combinations. More...10 Oct 2018
Ovarian Cancer Biomarker Predicts Therapy Response
Despite months of aggressive treatment involving surgery and chemotherapy, about 85% of women with high-grade widespread ovarian cancer will have a recurrence of their disease. This leads to further treatment, but never to a cure. About 15% of patients, however, do not have a recurrence and most of those women remain disease free for years. More...01 Oct 2018
