Determining when cell injury occurs as a result of asbestos exposure has been the subject of a myriad of tests.  One interesting study on point is called, "Interstitial accumulation of inhaled chrysotile asbestos fibers and consequent formation of microcalcifications." By A. R. Brody and L. H. Hill - Am J Pathol. 1982 October; 109(1): 107–114.  Here is an excerpt: "Previous studies have shown that inhaled chrysotile asbestos impacts initially at the...

The interaction between healthy cells and exposure to asbestos fibers has been studied in earnest.   Unfortunately, the environmental exposure commonly encountered by the certain populations in industrial countries has been unacceptably high.  One interesting study on point is called, "Asbestos Fibres in the Lungs of Chrysotile Miners and Millers – a Preliminary Report" by N. Rowlands, GW Gibbs, and AD McDonald - Ann. Occup. Hyg., Vol. 26, No. 3, pp....

Many researchers have suggested that there is a synergistic interaction between asbestos and mesothelioma in humans.  One interesting study that explores the subject is called, "Mutations of p53 gene and SV40 sequences in asbestos associated and non-asbestos-associated mesotheliomas." By F G Mayall, G Jacobson, R Wilkins - J Clin Pathol 1999;52:291-293 – Here is an excerpt: "Abstract - AIM: To examine mesotheliomas for a possible relation between p53...

Exposure to hazardous asbestos has been shown to cause various malignancies.  In fact, over 700,000 people have filed claims for asbestos related injuries in the United States alone.  One interesting study that examines cellular abnormalities is called, "Chromosomal abnormalities and their correlations with asbestos exposure and survival in patients with mesothelioma." By M. Tiainen, L. Tammilehto, J. Rautonen, T. Tuomi, K. Mattson, and S. Knuutila. - Br J Cancer....

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that has been widely used throughout the industrial world.  It only becomes dangerous when it is broken into tiny particles or fibers and inhaled or swallowed.  One interesting study exploring the link between exposure and lung disease is called, "Asbestos stimulates IL-8 production from human lung epithelial cells" by GJ Rosenthal, DR Germolec, ME Blazka, E Corsini, P Simeonova, P Pollock, LY Kong, J Kwon and MI Luster -...

The inhalation of asbestos fibers can be deadly depending upon the level and duration of exposure.  One interesting article that explores the oxidation of biomolecules is it related to exposure is called, "Iron mobilization from asbestos by chelators and ascorbic acid" by Loren G. Lund and Ann E. Aust - Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics - Volume 278, Issue 1, April 1990, Pages 60-64.  Here is an excerpt: "Abstract - The ability of chelators and ascorbic...

To hear the diagnosis that you have breast cancer, or that someone you love has breast cancer, it can be devastating. It may have taken you by surprise, it may have been a suspicion or a possibility for some time. Either way, surviving cancer may seem like an impossible goal, and it can take a while for everything to sink in, and to come to terms with the diagnosis and plan the future treatment.

Accepting treatment is important in aiding your survival. Your doctor will discuss you...

Cancer is the most dangerously felt disease in the common. To know more aboutcancerits better we understand this from the basic. Our body is made of numerous cells and they grow as and when need but when growth of the necessary cells goes beyond the actual requirement then that's what leads to cancer. Actually these enormous growth lead to mass in organ called as tumors and this tumors is of two different types Benign and Maglignant.Benign are tumors mostly harmless to life...

In our February, 2010 newsletter I shared a research study that predicted the reduction of 100,000 cases of breast and colon cancer annually in the US as well as a 75% reduction of cancer deaths, with adequate vitamin D levels.  As more research studies continue to be published, I am becoming increasingly impressed by its health giving abilities.  Also, I see a vast improvement in my family and friends, after they begin to take it.

Once again, the...

Malignant melanoma, also known as skin cancer has a chance of curing, despite doctor's opinions. The bad news is that we are still trying to synthesize what exactly are the factors, which caused so many people to survive malignant melanoma, and completely get rid of it. If you have skin cancer, I would highly recommend that you get this brilliant e-book , and follow the instructions. People have been swearing by it, and it has changed a lot of lives.

Malignant melanoma prognosis -...
