Guest guest Posted October 28, 2001 Report Share Posted October 28, 2001 This is called genetic engineering, and pharmaceutical companies are spending a fortune on it. Gleevec is an example of a genetic "smart bomb" drug that targets a particular gene. Patients who are susceptiple to chronic myelogenous leukemia often have a defect in what is called the Philadelphia Chromosome. Chromosomes 9 and 22 stick together to form the philadelphia chromosome which harbors a gene known as the bcr-abl gene. This gene codes for proteins called kinases which fuel prolific cell growtn (i.e. cancer) . Unfortunately, even in this very specific chromosomal abnormality, resistance develops. Many patients who had initial wonderful results with Gleevec have relapsed. Cancerous cells have tremendous capacity to adapt. In other cancers where the disease is not so easily associated with a specirfic abnormality, things will be even tougher. The "Yin and Yang" of the 20 some-odd tumor suppressor genes and 100 some-odd oncogenes form the players in a continually revolving genetic death dance. There is a good chance that there are more players we don't know about than we do know about. It's probably quite an over-simplification to compare the molecular biology of cancer with the relationship betwen a sickle cell erythrocyte, and the parasite that carries malaria. Sickle cell anemia is caused by a mistake in two amino acids of the more than 570 amino acids which make up hemoglobin. In this case two negative charged amino acids are replaced by two neutral amino acids. This leads to clumping of the deoxygenated hemoglobin...which simply creates an environment in which the parasite cannot thrive. Sickle cell is not a desirable condition, and patients usually die young and have extremely painful crisis experiences. Boik's book "Natural Compounds in Cancer Therapy" provides a basis for the potential role of natural products...and many of these products potentials are rooted in their ability to upregulate or "express" tumor suppressor genes, and down regulate oncogenes, or their proteins. This "redifferentiation" may allow the cell to fall under normal "fail-safe" control...where a programmed cell death called apoptosis eliminates the cancerous cell. 's book does a much better job than these few sentences of describing the dynamics.

The old vaccine stored someplace is the same as before There is new being developed that is totally different but of course don't have that yet as it hasn't been tested but will be tested on all the crazed panicked masses out there.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2001 Report Share Posted November 11, 2001 Hey, this I know the answer to. Well, anyway I think I do. I know it does when pulsing the abdomen, so I'm assuming the same is true with the low back. One should take acidophilus.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2001 Report Share Posted November 18, 2001 The medical community says that once you have your initial 3 shots, there is no need for a booster. This will only be current, of course, until vaccinated people start showing up as Hep B positive at which time, boosters will no doubt be added. All the best Meryl (the cynic :-) Question Does anyone know when to get a booster for a hep B shot? I know the answer is never, but this is a question a co-worker asked. His doc told him every 4 yrs. I thought that didn't sound right either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2001 Report Share Posted November 30, 2001 Dr. R says " No. " However, I'm not going to lie and act like I stick by the book all the time. I have drank tea on occasion. No, soda's though. They don't even sound appealing to me. And you know something that's weird? And I'm blaming this on the pregnancy and changing tastes because of it, but I LOVED Gatorade. That was ALL I would drink up until about 2-3 months ago. Now, I cannot force myself to drink it. Is that not odd? I've been drinking mostly lemonade now and that is getting old. UGH! What to drink, what to drink... <grin> I'd sure rather have this problems than the problems I had 126 pounds ago, though. in OK In a message dated 11/30/2001 7:11:59 PM Pacific Standard Time, Claydancr7@... writes: << This will sound kind of stupid, but I have not had any caffeine or soda or antyhing that is a no-no ..MY QUESTION IS THIS...

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2001 Report Share Posted December 3, 2001 Suzanne, I've found a couple of things to drink that replace coffee and tea. I don't necessarily miss coffee but I do miss a warm drink when I get cold. Try Swiss Miss " no sugar added " hot chocolate. It has about 50 calories in a full cup. I also drink a hot apple cider drink I picked up at Sam's (comes in individual serving packets). That has 60 calories in each serving (but is not sugar free).

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2001 Report Share Posted December 3, 2001 I second the Postum -- it is wonderful -- before surgery, I used to only drink one cup of coffee in the morning -- didn't think I'd miss it. But I did miss it horribly, and Postum is a wonderful replacement. Of course I drink it with cream and sweetner, so I'm not certain how it would be for you folks who like it black. But it sure is worth a try. God bless. from Michigan MGB 12/29/00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2002 Report Share Posted February 22, 2002 Well, up to 3-4 years after the high titer vaccine in Africa, there was an " excess " of deaths among girls, forcing that particular approach to be discontinued.

How long after the vaccine can a reaction occur and be counted as a reaction to the vaccine. SOme things i read these kids are getting sick and dieing 3 mo after the vaccine. SOme kids get sick with in days or weeks but 3 mo can that still be counted as a reaction to the vaccine? I am asking cause as a child I had seizure and unknow high fever 3 mo after my mmr ran fever for 2 mo after that and then lost my hair in a big patch which still never grew back. And my dd had seizure also i am gonna call the Dr to see when she had her MMR to see how close in relation it was.
