Could this new treatment really reverse celiac disease?

New technology may be applicable to other autoimmune diseases and allergies Results of a new phase 2 clinical trial using technology developed at Northwestern Medicine show it is possible to induce immune tolerance to gluten in individuals with celiac disease. The findings may pave the way for treated celiac patients to eventually tolerate gluten in

Reversing age-related memory loss with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

Memory in older adults restored to young adult level Stimulating a precise location of the brain’s memory center with electromagnetic pulses improves the memory of older adults with age-related memory loss to the level of young adults, reports a new Northwestern Medicine study. “Older people’s memory got better up to the level that we could

Discovery: A new kill code embedded in each cell to extinguish cancer

Cancer’s most deadly assassin exists in every cell A kill code is embedded in every cell in the body whose function may be to cause the self-destruction of cells that become cancerous, reports a new Northwestern Medicine study. As soon as the cell’s inner bodyguards sense it is mutating into cancer, they punch in the

Treating fibrosis, that is estimated to cause 35 to 40 percent of deaths in the world, with precision medicine

Normal scar tissue forms to heal an internal wound and quietly retreats when the job is done. But in many common diseases — kidney, liver and lung fibrosis — the scar tissue goes rogue and strangles vital organs. These diseases are largely untreatable and ultimately fatal. A new Northwestern Medicine study has newly identified a

Game changing precision medicine comes to rheumatoid arthritis

Scientists are bringing precision medicine to rheumatoid arthritis for the first time by using genetic profiling of joint tissue to see which drugs will work for which patients, reports a new Northwestern Medicine multi-site study. In the near future, patients won’t have to waste time and be disappointed with months of ineffective therapy, scientists said.
