Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Cancer, Asthma: New Light Shed On Inflammatory Disease Scientists have found that understanding the precise timing of communication between cells that coordinate the body's response to disease could be key to new drug developments. A new study in Science examines a key player in conditions such as cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis and asthma and has shown that cells use a sophisticated communication system to coordinate responses to infection and maintain inflammation in the body. This system is now a target for designing drugs to treat these conditions. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/04/090409142238.htm Alana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
