Arthritis Drug Salsalate Used To Treat Diabetes
In yet another drug cross-over, the latest non-diabetes treatment for diabetes is an arthritis drug.

In previous studies, Shoelson and his team found inflammation -- an immune system response that normally fights infection and promotes healing -- plays a huge part in the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Shoelson and his team were the first to demonstrate a major trigger of inflammation is activated by weight gain. That trigger is a protein in the liver called NF-kB. The next step? Finding a way to reduce inflammation by turning off the trigger.


Who knows what else can be utilized to fight diabeteslinks?
