Chronic Pain Gene - HCN2 - Identified, Hopes For New Targeted Pain Drugs - QualityPoint Technologies

qualitypointtech.net — “A gene called HCN2 produces a protein which regulates chronic pain, researchers from Cambridge University, England, and the University of Cadiz, Spain reported in the journal Science. They added that medications which inhibit the gene's protein production could be extremely effective in combating chronic pain. Chronic pain, also known as persistent pain, is long-term pain that lasts over 12 weeks, or pain that continues after healing is completed and pain should have stopped, as may be the case View full resource at qualitypointtech.net

Sporadic breast cancers start with ineffective DNA repair systems, Pitt researchers find

eurekalert.org — “Breast cancers that arise sporadically, rather than through inheritance of certain genes, likely start with defects of DNA repair mechanisms that allow environmentally triggered mutations to accumulate, according to researchers at the University of Pittsburgh. The findings, reported this week in the early online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, indicate that chemotherapy drugs that target DNA in later-stage cancers could be an effective treatment for the earliest oView full resource at eurekalert.org
