| GenoMed, Inc. Can Explain Link Between West Nile, Diabetes/Hypertension
ST. LOUIS, June 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- GenoMed , a Next
Generation Disease Management company whose business is global public
health(TM), today announced that it has already published why patients
with diabetes and high blood pressure should be at increased risk of
getting West Nile virus encephalitis.
This observation has now been made in California, New York and Texas.
The link appears to be over-activity of the angiotensin I-converting
enzyme, abbreviated "ACE."
In 2002, GenoMed published a series of four papers showing that over-
activity of ACE led to diabetes and hypertension, as well as to
complications like heart and kidney disease. Using the right dose of
the right ACE inhibitor, it was possible to reverse diabetic or
hypertensive kidney disease for the first time.
In 2004, GenoMed published that a similar approach was successful in
treating over 80% of patients with West Nile virus encephalitis.
GenoMed's treatment success rate for WNV encephalitis is currently 86%
(19 of 22 patients improved rapidly).
In 2003, GenoMed filed patent applications claiming that ACE inhibitors
and angiotensin II blockers may be a near-universal viral antidote,
because previously healthy people who get sick from nearly all viral
diseases suffer from a "cytokine storm" initiated by too much
angiotensin II. Angiotensin II is made by ACE. GenoMed's viral antidote
was included in the Project BioShield II Act of 2005, since it would be
an ideal public health response to viral bioterrorism.
Said Dr. Moskowitz, GenoMed's CEO and Chief Medical Officer, "GenoMed
goes from the molecular mechanism of disease directly to practical
treatments that are safe and useful at the population level. It's very
gratifying to get separate epidemiologic confirmation that we've
discovered something huge."
