Is there any alternative to control multisteps of ulcers?

Ulcers are a worldwide challenging disease, and researchers have long been seeking effective antiulcer alternatives. A research group in India has revealed that a bioactive polysaccharide from an edible root, Decalepis hamiltonii, commonly called swallow root, could offer protection at all critical steps of gastric ulcer.

1. Clinical studies evaluate potential treatments for mouth ulcers
   04-16-2007 · EurekAlert!
   The drug pentoxifylline appears to have limited benefit in the first-line treatment of mouth ulcers due to recurrent apthous stomatitis, according to a report in the April issue of Archives of Dermatology, one of the JAMA/Archives journals. However, a second report in the same issue finds that a cream commonly used to treat eczema may be effective in patients with another ulcer-causing mouth disease, oral erosive lichen planus.

2. Muscle mass: Scientists identify novel mode of transcriptional regulation during myogenesis
   08-17-2007 · EurekAlert!
   In an upcoming issue of G&D, Drs. Maria Divina Deato and Robert Tjian (HHMI, UC Berkeley) reveal that the formation of an alternative transcriptional core promoter complex directs cell-type specific differentiation during myogenesis. The article uncovers a whole new level of transcriptional control of terminal cell differentiation, and will be published online Sept. 1.

   In the first study to directly compare a contraceptive vaginal ring and skin patch, more women indicated overall satisfaction with the vaginal ring, a significant majority saying they preferred it even to the pill. Using the same combination of hormones included in prescription birth control pills, these products became available in 2002 as an alternative to taking a pill every day. Ring and patch are left in place for three weeks at a time.

10. UCLA chemists design world's lowest-density crystals for use in clean energy
    04-12-2007 · EurekAlert!
    Chemists at UCLA have designed new organic structures for the storage of voluminous amounts of gases for use in alternative energy technologies. The research, to be published on April 13 in the journal Science, demonstrates how the design principles of reticular chemistry have been used to create three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks, which are entirely constructed from strong covalent bonds and have high thermal stability, high surface areas and extremely low densities.
