Arthritis research
draws new iflterest
With. the recent renewed
interest in arthritis;' ap-.
plications . for research.
grants have reached an all-
time • high, The Arthritis
Society reports.
Considered a rather
dreary area of medicine only
a few years ago,.
rheumatology now is at-
tracting many scientists.
According to rheumatolo-
gists associated with The
Arthritis Society, the virtual
explosion of knowledge
about the more than 100
different kinds of arthritis
has caused great excitement
in the scientific world.
The body's immune
system is undergoing careful
study and many researchers
think this is the area which
wilt : produce ; results in
• controlling the disease: It is
a widely -held• view that.
much of' the*image of in-
flammatory iirthritis is
caused because the immune
system doessiiof''shut off' as
it normally should, with the
result that the body goes on
producing very powerful
agents which in effect eat
into the joint structure.
The role of heredity in
arthritis is being studied and
it is felt predisposition to
rheumatoid arthritis is
hereditary. It also
believed that problems with
the body's immune system
can be hereditary as well.
These two areas appear to
be the ones which hold out
the greatest promise in
understanding arthritis, but
there is a renewed interest in
understanding inflamma-
tion, the role infection plays
in many kinds of arthritis
and, finally; a great deal of
study is being done in the
area of pharmacology to
produce new drugs to aid in
control of arthritis.
The Ontario division of The
Arthritis Society is seeking
to raise more than $3 million
this year to support the
society's programs of
research and medical man-
power development.

arthritis and The Arthritis
Society is available by

Society, 920 Yonge Street,
