the form of human dietary copper epidemiological studies in the elderly , post - mortem pathology studies of human amyloid plaques and their co - localization with copper , comparative human studies finding elevated levels of serum free copper in ad patients compared to age - matched controls , as well as many molecular studies establishing free coppers high binding affinity and oxidizing effects on the majority of recognized ad - related proteins , including , amyloid beta , tau , amyloid precursor protein ( app ) , beta secretase , and apolipoprotein e ( apoe ) phenotypes 2 / 3 / 4 . references ( 1 - 9 ) . taken together , this mounting body of evidence implicates elevated free copper levels in the central nervous system as a consistent and prominent cause of the characteristic copper - containing insoluable amyloid beta plaques , neurofibrillary tangles , cognitive impairment and neurodegeneration that defines ad . as a society in which 50 % of our population over the age of 75 are already afflicted by ad and countless others at risk of developing ad , ad is the disease of our time , and it is high time that we pay attention to the risks that free copper poses to our susceptible elderly population ( especially those at genetic risk for ad ) and pursue with vigor potential therapeutic interventions such as those that our company is developing that specifically aim to lower the central nervous system copper burden of already affected patients . the experiments conducted and results presented by dr . joseph quinn and colleagues at oregon health & science university represent the first prospectively defined controlled therapeutic intervention study in mice or man that is specifically targeted to lower free copper levels in the central nervous system for the purpose of treating ad and the results demonstrate that lowering such free copper can lower insoluable amyloid beta levels by 40 % . and thus a disease modifying effect in ad . ohsus efforts and results would not have been achieved without the support of the national institute on aging to whom pipex would like to take the opportunity to thank . we look forward to the further results of dr . quinns group regarding their ongoing additional cohorts of transgenic tg2576 animals currently being tested pursuant to a protocol in which coprexa is being administered to animals after the typical apparent onset of disease at 10 - 12 months of age .

the results show that email is still seen as the most useful internet tool and corporate users still view improved com - munications with employees , customers and suppliers as the most important benefit that internet access gives . however , the sourcing and provision of information , and file transfer capabilities are gaining recognition and growing in importance as ways of improving business opportunities and efficiency .

the corporate internet community continues to outweigh the academic and home user sector , and all sectors look set to increase dramatically over the next twelve months . according to input , the global it market intelligence firm , by the year 2000 , the population connected to the internet will grow to more than 200 million and business - to - business electronic commerce volumes transacted over the internet may reach $ 75 billion worldwide ( business first , 19 dec 94 ) .

in case you’ve forgotten , here’s a reminder . the company provides full commercial internet connectivity via a range of dialup and high bandwidth leased line sevices , giving access to email , file transfer , remote login and online information services worldwide .

joseph quinn , m . d . , associate professor of neurology at oregon health & science university ( ohsu ) and primary investigator of this study commented , " these preliminary results of a significant reduction in central nervous system copper ( p < 0 . 05 ) and a 40 % reduction in insoluble amyloid beta ( p < 0 . 05 ) are encouraging from a standpoint of coprexas ability to be a potentially disease modifying therapy for ad . these preliminary results need to be replicated and expanded before we proceed to clinical trials .

dr . george brewer , professor emeritus at the university of michigan and inventor of coprexa , said , the strength of the association between coppers causative relationship and alzheimers disease parallels my experience in treating neurologic wilsons disease , a disease of similar neurodegeneration . while a different form of disease , in coprexa treated neurologic wilsons disease , we have seen a reversal or improvement in the neurologic scores of these patients . currently , there are no adequate approved or disease modifying treatments for alzheimers and these results represent an important step forward for the 4 . 5 million americans suffering from alzheimers . "

over the last several years , an increasing body of evidence points to dysfunctional copper homeostasis in the pathogenesis of ad . most recently , a published observational six year study in 3718 patients over the age of 65 , concluded that subjects that consumed a typical amount of a copper supplement ( 1 . 6mg of copper a day ) when taken together with a high saturated and trans fat diet results in an equivalent of 19 years of mental decline ( p < 0 . 001 ) ( 2 ) .

in a separate european clinical study conducted in 53 patients , correlated the levels of the highly reactive free copper ( also known as copper not bound to protein ) pool in serum to disease severity in ad patients versus aged - matched control patients . these results demonstrated that the free copper serum pool was highly increased in ad patients ( 4 ) .

these clinical studies are complemented by preclinical studies that show that ad amyloid - ß plaques when treated with copper chelating agents in vitro loosen and reverse fibril formation as determined by spectroscopy .

in the experiments conducted at ohsu , two separate groups of animals , transgenic tg2576 app overexpressing mice and wild type controls were each randomized to receive orally administered coprexa or control vehicle ( 4 cohorts , 6 animals per cohort ) for a period of 6 months beginning at 8 months of age , approximately 2 months prior to the typical onset of ad - like pathology . animals were sacrificed at 14 months of age and brain homogenates were then compared and quantified for the levels of soluable ( nonpathogenic ) amyloid beta and insoluble ( pathogenic ) amyloid beta . in the tg2576 animal cohorts , a statistically significant 20 % reduction in brain copper levels was observed as well as a statistically significant 40 % reduction in insoluable amyloid beta between the tg2576 animals receiving vehicle as compared to the tg2576 animals receiving coprexa . while statistically significant reductions in brain copper and insoluable amyloid beta were achieved in the current studies in transgenic tg2576 app overexpressing mice , the small sample size of the study appears to have been insufficient to demonstrate conclusive change in special memory and learning scores both between and among control and treated and transgenic and wild type groups of animals pursuant to standard morris water maze experiments of special memory .

subject to initial and necessary registration clinical trials to support its use in treating ad , coprexas specificity and unique mechanism of action for lowering toxic free copper levels in the cns , combined with its history of success in completed pivotal clinical trials of neurologically - presenting wilsons disease , may make it highly useful in the treatment of both the acute cognitive dysfunction ( copper - mediated synaptic excitotoxicity ) as well as long - term neurodegenerative aspect ( copper - induced oxidation and neuronal death ) of ad coprexas ability to specifically bind only toxic free copper , as opposed to increasing free copper levels by virtue of liberating bound copper , for example , amongst other properties , we believe differentiates oral tetrathiomolybdate from other non - specific metal chelating compounds previously investigated for neurodegenerative diseases .

it is estimated that more than 4 . 5 million americans and 12 million people worldwide suffer from ad . risk factors for the disease include age and family history . age is the most important risk factor for ad ; the number of people with the disease doubles every five years beyond age 65 . according to the alzheimers association , the disease affects one in 10 persons over the age of 65 , and 50 % of those over 85 years old .

there is an urgent need for an effective treatment for the illness , caused in part by the rising health care , institutional , and social costs for the treatment and care of alzheimers sufferers . in may 2002 , the national institute on aging ( nia ) reported that the cost of care to family , caregivers and society in general was estimated to exceed $ 100 billion per year , up from $ 18 billion in 1996 , ranking ad as the disease with the greatest economic cost to society . these costs are expected to rise sharply as the baby - boom generation ages and more people become at risk for the disease . as people live longer , their risk of developing ad increases .

the market for treatment of ad is equally large , accounting for $ 3 billion in worldwide sales in 2004 . this market is expected to grow to $ 5 billion by 2009 . aricept ® , an fda - approved acetylcholinesterase inhibitor , is the top - selling treatment , accounting for 40 % of the alzheimer ' s - drug market in 2004 with $ 1 . 35 billion in sales and year - over - year revenues growing by 17 % per annum . these sales figures would be expected to grow upon the introduction of a disease modifying therapy for ad as no disease modifying therapy is currently commercially available .

we are also developing coprexa for fibrotic disorders based upon the rationale that the fibrotic disease process is dependent upon the availability of free copper in the body . coprexa has demonstrated the ability to inhibit fibrosis in a number of well established animal models through the sequestration of available copper and inhibition of key fibrotric cytokines , including secreted protein acid rich in cysteine ( sparc ) , nf ? b , tgf - ß , fgf - 2 , il - 1 , il - 6 , il - 8 , and connective tissue growth factor ( ctgf ) .

the specialty pharmaceutical company said it has received $ 306 , 172 from the national institute of health ' s national institute on aging to conduct a mouse study of its anti - copper agent coprexa to treat alzheimer ' s disease .

one group of mice in the study will be given the drug before the formation of the brain plaque associated with alzheimer ' s disease , to determine if coprexa can prevent the disorder .

the study will build on an increasing body of evidence that so - called " free copper " - - or copper not bound to proteins - - in blood serum is a key marker in alzheimer ' s disease .

i know there have been similar threads before and i ' m sure a lot of people are bored of giving these types of answers , but . . . i ' m now realising i really need to change to broadband , i seem to be using my computer much more nowadays especially for uploading for my website and now uploading images to ' upixa ' ( see other thread in lounge ! ) .

im looking for similar , without any upload / download caps , i . e must be true inlimited download .

surely that ' s only the master account though - you can choose usernames for other mailboxes . besides , if accessing on your own home computer , the passwords are best remembered by your mail client .

and , apart from last week when they had problems with a major network reorganisation , i ' ve been happy with them . cheap because you pay upfront , no bandwidth restrictions , unlimited mailboxes , etc . mention my name and i ' ll get a £20 referral fee !

whats wrong with aol ? i ' ve used aol dailup and now onto broadband ( silver ) and haven ' t had any problems with them . unlimited download etc . . i don ' t think they are the cheapest around - but i never get any spam in my inbox . i never use ( well hardly ever ) use the aol browser tho ' , prefer firefox .

well . . . when they bought out compuserve , all of the customer information that was held by compuserve suddenly became available to 3rd parties who wanted to buy the info .

just like all your ' private info ' that aol have on you . they are very well known for selling on your details to any interested parties .

that ' s nice of them . . might change after my years contract is up , pain about my email address tho ' . whats gmail like ( anyone have it here , as you can ' t register - only be invited i wouldn ' t mind trying it )

im not bothered about email accounts , webspace or anything as i have that seperately .

that ' s nice of them . . might change after my years contract is up

you ' re going to have lots of fun trying to remove the software from your computer .
