Remedy For Scalp Eczema, Dandruff and Seborrhoeic …

Posted: Published on July 12th, 2015

Scalp ezcema, seborrhoeic dermatititsand dandruff is a condition that plagues many people, young or old.. Scalp eczema can start in children as young as one year old and can continue well into adulthood. This is particularly distressing for the childs confidence and self-esteem. Other children who may not understand the condition may bully or make fun of the child; other parents, ignorant about it, may think its contagious and exclude the afflictedchild from their own kids social events. In addition, the parents may experience disapproving looks from other parents or adults who think Tut, tut that child is neglected by his/her parents. Why cant the parents do something about it? The eczema produces reddened inflammed sores that periodically ooze, build up of dry scales, persistent itching, painful lesions, severe scarring and permanent damage to the hair follicles resulting in hair loss. It is not a pretty sight to see a young child walking around with patches of hair on their head. Eczema is an illness caused by toxaemia not surprising given the amount of preservatives, hormones and additives in modern diet & processed foods. . Children and adults who suffer from scalp eczema should have their hair treated like fine … Continue reading →

Stem cell transplant for multiple myeloma

Posted: Published on July 12th, 2015

In a stem cell transplant, the patient gets high-dose chemotherapy (sometimes with radiation to the whole body) to kill the cells in the bone marrow (including the myeloma cells). Then the patient receives new, healthy blood-forming stem cells. When stem cell transplants were first developed, the new stem cells came from bone marrow, and so this was known as a bone marrow transplant. Now, stem cells are more often gathered from the blood (a peripheral blood stem cell transplant). Stem cell transplant is commonly used to treat multiple myeloma. Before the transplant, drug treatment is used to reduce the number of myeloma cells in the patients body (see the section Chemotherapy and other drugs for multiple myeloma). Stem cell transplants (SCT) are autologous and allogeneic. For an autologous stem cell transplant, the patients own stem cells are removed from his or her bone marrow or peripheral blood before the transplant. The cells are stored until they are needed for the transplant. Then, the person with myeloma gets treatment such as high-dose chemotherapy, sometimes with radiation, to kill the cancer cells. When this is complete, the stored stem cells are infused back into the patients blood. This type of transplant is … Continue reading →

Mesenchymal Stem Cells Research Area: R&D Systems

Posted: Published on July 12th, 2015

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are adult stem cells traditionally found in the bone marrow. However, mesenchymal stem cells can also be isolated from other tissues including cord blood, peripheral blood, fallopian tube, and fetal liver and lung. Multipotent stem cells, MSCs differentiate to form adipocytes, cartilage, bone, tendons, muscle, and skin. Mesenchymal stem cells are a distinct entity to the mesenchyme, embryonic connective tissue which is derived from the mesoderm and differentiates to form hematopoietic stem cells. Morphologically, mesenchymal stem cells have long thin cell bodies with a large nucleus. As with other stem cell types, MSCs have a high capacity for self renewal while maintaining multipotency. Thus, mesenchymal stem cells have enormous therapeutic potential for tissue repair. MSCs have been shown to be capable of differentiating into multiple cell types including adipocytes, chondrocytes, osteocytes, and cardiomyocytes. R&D Systems offers products designed to identify the progression of MSCs into osteogenic, adipogenic, muscular, and chondrogenic lineages.

Ulcerative colitis – Symptoms, Causes, Treatments

Posted: Published on July 11th, 2015

Introduction Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory disease of the large intestine, or colon. It occurs when inflammation in the colon produces redness, bleeding and pus, which, in turn, causes such symptoms as diarrhea and abdominal pain. Inflammation impairs the ability of the colon to hold its contents, resulting in frequent elimination. Ulcerative colitis is a type of inflammatory bowel disease, along with Crohns disease. The exact cause of ulcerative colitis is not known. Ulcerative colitis can affect one side of the colon or the entire colon. Left-side colon involvement is called limited, or distal, colitis. Ulcerative proctitis describes inflammation occurring in the lower part of the colon and rectum. Symptoms range in severity among affected individuals. In a small number of those affected, problems outside of the large intestine may develop, including arthritis, inflammation of the eyes, mouth ulcers, and skin changes. Ulcerative colitis also increases your risk of developing colon cancer. Ulcerative colitis affects teenagers and young adults, with disease onset usually occurring in peaks between ages 15 and 30 years, and less commonly between ages 50 and 70. The condition can run in families, with at least 20% of people affected having a family member with the condition. … Continue reading →

Beat Multiple Sclerosis with a Paleo Diet – Mercola.com

Posted: Published on July 11th, 2015

By Dr. Mercola Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, degenerative disease of the nerves in your brain and spinal column, caused through a demyelization process. Myelin is the insulating, waxy substance around the nerves in your central nervous system. When the myelin is damaged by an autoimmune disease or self-destructive process in your body, the function of those nerves deteriorate over time, resulting in a number of symptoms, including: MS may progress steadily, or acute attacks may be followed by a temporary remission of symptoms. In the video above, Dr. Terry Wahls tells the inspiring story of how she reversed multiple sclerosis after seven years of deterioration on the best conventional treatments available -- simply by changing her diet! Through her research into MS, Dr. Wahls discovered that, for some unknown reason, in addition to the commonly known symptoms, MS patients' brains also tend to shrink. This roused her curiosity, and led her to research other diseases that have similar brain shrinkage, namely Huntington's, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's disease. One common denominator is poorly functioning mitochondria. Mitochondria are like little "batteries" in your cells that manage the energy supply to the cell, and unless you consume the correct nutrients, eventual mitochondrial … Continue reading →

Scientists discover new molecules that kill … – EurekAlert!

Posted: Published on July 10th, 2015

Research in mice suggests molecules could treat cervical, breast, ovarian, and lung cancers Amsterdam, May 13, 2015 - A new family of molecules that kill cancer cells and protect healthy cells could be used to treat a number of different cancers, including cervical, breast, ovarian and lung cancers. Research published in EBioMedicine shows that as well as targeting and killing cancer cells, the molecules generate a protective effect against toxic chemicals in healthy cells. Cells can become cancerous when their DNA is damaged. Many different things can cause DNA damage, including smoking, chemicals and radiation; understanding exactly what happens at the point of DNA damage can help scientists develop new cancer treatments. By studying this mechanism, researchers from the University of Waterloo in Canada could identify new molecules that selectively target cancer cells. The researchers studied the process of DNA damage using a sort of molecular filming technique called femtosecond time-resolved laser spectroscopy. The technique is like a high-speed camera, which uses two pulses of light: one to start a reaction, and the other to monitor the way the molecules react. This technique let researchers watch how molecules interact in real-time, revealing how cells become cancerous. Researchers have been using … Continue reading →

The FDA Outrageously Claims That Stem Cells Are a "Drug"

Posted: Published on July 10th, 2015

By Dr. Mercola Adult stem cells (as opposed to embryonic stem cells, which are at the heart of the stem cell controversy) are a truly exciting part of the future of medicine, with seemingly limitless potential for anti-aging, arthritis and far more... But the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is attempting to regulate stem cell procedures at a Colorado clinic, stating that stem cells are drugs that fall under FDA jurisdiction. Outrageously, the FDA is making this claim even though the stem cells being used in the procedure come from the patient's own body, which means they are essentially claiming that they can regulate a part of your body. What makes stem cells so special is their potential to develop into many different cell types. When a stem cell divides, it either becomes another type of cell, such as a muscle cell or cartilage, or it remains a stem cell. Furthermore, these cells act as an internal repair system in many types of tissues, dividing a seemingly indefinite number of times to replenish other cells. As you age, your stem cells diminish in quality and quantity, so just when you require strong stem cells the most, you're becoming increasingly … Continue reading →

Statement of Benefit to California: Acute lung injury is a common cause of acute respiratory failure in critically ill patients. Based on recent studies, acute lung injury occurs annually in approximately 24,000 patients in California alone with an estimated mortality of 40% in those patients. Acute lung injury can develop in normal individuals who have been injured in major trauma, such as following an automobile accident or from exposure to smoke fumes in a fire. It also can occur in otherwise normal individuals who develop severe pneumonia from a viral infection, such as the flu. Acute lung injury also develops in patients with a variety of chronic medical illnesses including diabetes, chronic lung diseases, liver disease and dialysis dependent kidney failure. Acute lung injury develops in both pediatric and adult patients and treatment is required in an intensive care unit where patients can receive life support with mechanical ventilation and other life saving therapies. In spite of progress in supportive care for this syndrome of acute respiratory failure, 40% of patients with acute lung injury do not survive. Also, the patients who do survive require long periods of hospitalization to recover and also require extended periods of rehabilitation in specialized … Continue reading →
