Rituximab combined with a TNF inhibitor and methotrexate shows no safety signal in RA treatment
new.eurekalert.org — “A recent trial of rituximab in combination with a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor and methotrexate in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) found the safety profile to be consistent with other RA trials with TNF inhibitors. Results of the trial are published in the March issue of Arthritis & Rheumatism, a peer-reviewed journal of the American College of Rheumatology.” View full resource at new.eurekalert.org

How sunlight may reduce the severity of multiple sclerosis
new.eurekalert.org — “New research into the neurodegenerative disease, multiple sclerosis offers new insight into the link between sunlight, vitamin D3, and MS risk and severity. The research, published in the European Journal of Immunology, studies the relationship between the sunlight-dependent vitamin D3 hormone, immune cells, and the risk and severity of autoimmunity in an experimental model.” View full resource at new.eurekalert.org

Effectiveness of expanding harm reduction and antiretroviral therapy in a mixed HIV epidemic
new.eurekalert.org — “A new study from Stanford researchers published in PLoS Medicine makes the case that a combination of methadone substitution therapy and anti-retroviral treatment would have the greatest effect on reducing new infections and improving quality of life in a region where HIV is spreading rapidly among intravenous drug users.” View full resource at new.eurekalert.org

HIV makes protein that may help virus's resurgence
new.eurekalert.org — “New research enhances the current knowledge of how human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1), which causes AIDS, controls the cell cycle of cells that it infects. The new findings may shed light on how the virus reactivates after entering a dormant state, called latency. Better understanding of the biological events that revive HIV from latency may eventually lead to better treatments for people with HIV infection.” View full resource at new.eurekalert.org

Tenofovir gel provides high level of protection against HIV in rectal tissue
new.eurekalert.org — “A gel developed to protect against HIV during vaginal sex produced a strong antiviral effect when used in the rectum, according to an early-phase study. The results, based on rectal tissue biopsies sampled from HIV-negative men and women who used the product daily for one week, provide the first-ever evidence that tenofovir gel could help reduce the risk of HIV from anal sex, even though the vaginal gel formulation may not be optimal for rectal use.” View full resource at new.eurekalert.org

Text messaging helps smokers break the habit
new.eurekalert.org — “A pair of related studies on smoking cessation by researchers at the University of Oregon and other institutions have isolated the brain regions most active in controlling urges to smoke and demonstrated the effectiveness of text-messaging to measure and intervene in those urges.” View full resource at new.eurekalert.org

Drug to fight tumors also fights the flu and possibly other viruses
new.eurekalert.org — “Ever get a flu shot and still get the flu? If so, there's new hope for flu-free winters in the years to come thanks to a new discovery by researchers who found that a drug called DMXAA, originally developed as anti-tumor agent, enhances the ability of flu vaccines to ward off this deadly virus. This discovery was published in the March 2011 issue of the Journal of Leukocyte Biology.” View full resource at new.eurekalert.org
