Genetic study undermines case for CRP as cause of vascular disease

Copenhagen, Denmark- Is C-reactive protein (CRP) a promoter of cardiovascular disease or simply a marker of increased cardiovascular risk? Probably the latter, according to the latest study to address the question, in which four gene variants tied to sharply increased CRP levels were shown not to be associated with an elevated CV-event risk 
Gene therapy tool would target free radicals

Gene therapy has been touted as a possible way to cure genetic diseases, but new research suggests that it could also fight the wear and tear that leads to cardiovascular diseases.
ScienceNews reports:
"To work within this delicate balance, researchers in Finland have developed a way to insert into human cells free radical–fighting genes that only get switched on when free radical concentrations are high. That way, the genes could stave off the worst effects of free radicals without inhibiting the molecules’ useful functions, the researchers report in the September Gene Therapy."

Fish oil supplements may work slightly better than a popular cholesterol-reducing drug to help patients with chronic heart failure
Fish Oil Supplements Help With Heart Failure

Daily supplements of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids -- the kind found in fish oil -- reduced deaths and hospitalizations of people with heart failure, an Italian study found.
The benefits of green tea in reducing an important risk factor for heart disease

More evidence for the beneficial effect of green tea on risk factors for heart disease has emerged in a new study reported in the latest issue of European Journal of Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation.1 The study found that the consumption of green tea rapidly improves the function of (endothelial) cells lining the circulatory system; endothelial dysfunction is a key event in the progression of atherosclerosis
Study suggests a little milk could go a long way for your heart

Grabbing as little as one glass of lowfat or fat free milk could help protect your heart, according to a new study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Researchers found that adults who had at least one serving of lowfat milk or milk products each day had 37 percent lower odds of poor kidney function linked to heart disease compared to those who drank little or no lowfat milk. To determine heart disease risk, researchers from several universities in the United States and Norway measured the kidney function of more than 5,000 older adults ages 45 to 84
Risk of Dying Linked to Low Vitamin D

A new study shows that people who have low levels of vitamin D in their blood had a greater risk of dying.
Researchers led by Harald Dobnig, MD, of the Medical University of Graz, Austria, tracked 3,258 men and women who had been referred for an angiogram of their heart arteries. More than two-thirds had significant blockages in their coronary arteries.
The patients were followed for about eight years. During that time, 737 of them died, including 463 from cardiovascular problems
Adult asthma tied to heart disease in women

Asthma that begins in adulthood appears to increase the risk of heart disease and stroke in women but not in men. And compared with their counterparts without asthma, women with adult-onset asthma had a 2.10-fold increase in the rate of heart disease and a 2.36-fold increase in the rate of stroke.
What is the mechanisms of work stress and coronary heart disease?

As known, in mordern times, people are suffering more and more work stress, which would hurt our heart, But wether the inevitability exsist between them is not known. Recently, a new study suggested work stress may be an important determinant of CHD among working-age populations, which is mediated through indirect effects on health behaviours and direct effects on neuroendocrine stress pathways.
MicroRNA Sets Stage for Human Therapies

Scientists have taken a big step toward developing therapies based on naturally occurring tiny RNA molecules called microRNAs. In the first successful experiment with primates, researchers have blocked microRNAs to lower cholesterol levels in monkeys. This achievement builds hope that the strategy could one day be used to attack human diseases. Safety concerns still linger, however.
How to print out a blood vessel

A tissue engineering group has succeeded in creating functional blood vessels and cardiac tissue, using a printer that dispenses cells instead of ink. The work, published this month in Tissue Engineering, is among the first to produce functional three-dimensional tissue using a printer, and a milestone on the way to the goal of printing out whole organs.
Hormone Therapy Risks Linger On

Researchers with the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) are adding yet another chapter to the continuing (and confusing) story of hormone therapy (HT) taken during and after menopause. In the latest report, appearing in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), the study doctors report that the health risks of taking the combined hormones estrogen and progestin can linger for up to three years after women stop taking them.

Researchers have unearthed new clues behind a disease that effectively turns young children into senior citizens. A protein called progerin prods stem cells to go astray, causing them to mature into the wrong cell types. The findings may have implications for understanding normal aging as well.
