Respiratory Research | Abstract | The prevalence and identity of Chlamydia-specific IgE in children with asthma and other chronic respiratory symptoms

respiratory-research.com — “Recent studies have confirmed the presence of viable Chlamydia in the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid of pediatric patients with airway hyperresponsiveness. While specific IgG and IgM responses to C. pneumoniae are well described, the response and potential contribution of Ag-specific IgE are not known. The current study sought to determine if infection with Chlamydia triggers the production of pathogen-specific IgE in children with chronic respiratory diseases which might contribute to inflaView full resource at respiratory-research.com

Building a better antipsychotic drug by treating schizophrenia's cause: How drugs act on dopamine-producing neurons

sciencedaily.com — “Researchers have discovered that antipsychotic drugs work akin to a Rube Goldberg machine -- that is, they suppress something that in turn suppresses the bad effects of schizophrenia, but not the exact cause itself. In a new paper, they say that pinpointing what's actually causing the problem could lead to better avenues of schizophrenia treatment that more directly and efficiently target the disease.View full resource at sciencedaily.com
