Omega 3 fatty acid reduces type 1 diabetes
2007-09-27 09:30:00 U.S. researchers say dietary omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of developing diabetes in children who are genetically at risk for the disease.The study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, found higher consumption of omega-3 fatty acids - found in fish - by children at risk for type 1 diabetes decreased by 55 percent the risk of pancreatic islet autoimmunity, which is linked to development of diabetes.Although it is not yet known what initiates the autoimmune process in diseases such as type 1 diabetes, the study authors believe it is likely that both genetic background and environmental factors such as dietary factors contribute to the disease process. Jill M. Norris of the University of Colorado at Denver led researchers in examining the diets of 1,770 children at increased risk for type 1 diabetes - defined as having either a high diabetes risk human leukocyte antigen genotype or a sibling or parent with type 1 diabetes. Fifty-eight children became...

Many genetic changes that are deleterious occur in offspring of older fathers or sons of women whose fathers were older at the birth. What about fibromyalgia and paternal age? Do women with fibromyalgia have fathers who were 32 or older when they were born?Genetic Mutations Tied To Father in Most Cases By NATALIE ANGIER Published: May 17, 1994WHEN it comes to parceling out blame for birth defects and genetic disorders, women have historically shouldered most of the burden, particularly older mothers who supposedly risked their offspring's well-being by letting their eggs sit around growing progressively more stale and chromosomally unstable. By contrast, men have been seen as eternally fertile, able to father healthy children well into their dotage. But growing evidence suggests that men, rather than women, may be the source of most new genetic mutations in the population, and thus may be responsible for the majority of cong...

In studies on mice, Dr. Michael Demetriou and his colleagues with the UC Irvine Center for Immunology observed that N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), which is similar but more effective than the widely available glucosamine, inhibited the growth and function of abnormal T-cells that incorrectly direct the immune system to attack specific tissues in the body, such as brain myelin in MS and insulin-producing cells of the pancreas in diabetes.

Researchers Identify Gene Variant That Indicates Type 1 Diabetes Risk
2007-07-20 08:37:00 A press release issued July 15th, from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, announced that scientists have identified a gene variant that predicts which children may be at risk for type 1 diabetes.Type 1 diabetes affects mainly children. The insulin producing cells in the pancreas are destroyed by the child's immune system. Kids with type 1 are dependent on insulin injections for life.In two separate phases of the trial, scientists not only rechecked four previously discovered type 1 diabetes gene indicators, but discovered another type 1 gene labeled KIAA0350. It appears that KIAA0350 is active in immune cells and is a component of "natural killer" cells that usually protect the body from foreign invaders, but if KIAA0350 experiences a mutation, it may trigger an autoimmune attack of the islet cells in the pancreas, thereby causing permanent destruction of the cells.Constantin Polychronakos, M.D., director of Pediatric Endocrinology at McGill University and senior author of t...

Adult Stem Cell Research Helps Children With Type 1 Diabetes
2007-06-27 14:00:00 Chicago, IL (LifeNews.com) -- Another study has been published showing that adult stem cell research has just as much potential, if not more, than embryonic stem cells to help patients with various diseases. In this cases, researchers at University of Florida founds that stem cells from umbilical cord blood helped children newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. The study found that stem cell transfusions using the adult stem cells helped the children reduce their disease severity, possibly re-setting the immune system and slowing the destruction of their insulin-producing cells.Michael J. Haller, MD, a professor at the University of Florida College of Medicine and lead author of the study, presented the findings at the American Diabetes Association's 67th Annual Scientific Sessions."After only six months, it is too early to tell how long the children will benefit from this therapy, but early signs indicate that it may have helped enhance blood glucose control and management," Dr. Ha...
