   Molecular 'switch' reverses chronic infl

   Hello...   
      
      
   Molecular 'switch' reverses chronic inflammation and aging   
      
   Chronic inflammation, which results when old age, stress or   
   environmental toxins keep the body's immune system in overdrive, can   
   contribute to a variety of devastating diseases, from Alzheimer's and   
   Parkinson's to diabetes and cancer.   
      
   Now, scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, have   
   identified a molecular "switch" that controls the immune machinery   
   responsible for chronic inflammation in the body. The finding, which   
   appears online Feb. 6 in the journal Cell Metabolism, could lead to new   
   ways to halt or even reverse many of these age-related conditions.   
      
   "I think this finding has very important implications in treating major   
   human chronic diseases," Chen said. "It's also a timely question to ask,   
   because in the past year, many promising Alzheimer's disease trials   
   ended in failure. One possible explanation is that treatment starts too   
   late, and it has gone to the point of no return. So, I think it's more   
   urgent than ever to understand the reversibility of aging-related   
   conditions and use that knowledge to aid a drug development for   
   aging-related diseases."
