Scientists find cause of fatal inflammation of the heart muscle

2011-03-30
Scientists of the German Cancer Research Center (Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum, DKFZ), jointly with colleagues in the United States, have found out that inflammations of the heart muscle are caused by attacks of a specific type of immune cells. These immune cells attack the body's own tissue because during their maturation they did not have the chance to develop tolerance against a protein that is only found in the heart muscle. An inflammation of the heart muscle, or myocarditis, frequently precedes a dangerous and often fatal heart enlargement. In many cases, the ...

In some cases, decreased night vision only lasts a few days; for other patients, it can take months for it to fade entirely. Following-up with your LASIK surgeon will help ensure that any problems are carefully monitored and addressed, if necessary. When night vision problems continue past the usual LASIK recovery period, they are usually due ...

Thyroid affects color vision
2011-03-30
This release is available in German. What part does the thyroid gland have in vision? Thyroid hormone is crucially involved in controlling which visual pigment is produced in the cones. Previously, it was assumed that the colour sensitivity of the cones is fixed in the adult retina. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research in Frankfurt/M., together with colleagues at the University of Frankfurt and universities in Vienna, have now been able to show that in mature cones of mice and rats the production of visual pigment is regulated by thyroid hormone. ...
