Celebrity Chef Leticia Moreinos Schwartz Partners with Merck on Desafiando La Diabetes: Logra Tus Metas to Urge Hispanics With Type 2 Diabetes to Get to Their A1C Goal
PR Newswire - Fri Sep 19, 10:00AM CDT
Merck (NYSE: MRK), known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, is teaming with celebrity chef and cookbook author Leticia Moreinos Schwartz on Desafiando La Diabetes: Logra Tus Metas, an educational program encouraging Hispanics with type 2 diabetes to achieve better control of their blood sugar -- a key treatment goal to help reduce the risk of serious health problems. Hispanics in the United States are at a higher risk for developing type 2 diabetes than non-Hispanic white adults, and it is the fifth leading cause of death within the Hispanic community. Chef Leticia, who has a family history of type 2 diabetes, will visit select cities to cook up some of her favorite diabetes-friendly Latin recipes, urge Hispanics to know their A1C (average blood sugar level over the past two to three months), and work with their doctors to set and attain their own A1C goal.

Singulair Asthma Market to 2023 - Etiology, Pathophysiology, Diagnosis & Treatment Overview in New Report Available at LifeScienceIndustryResearch.com
PRWeb - Fri Sep 19, 9:31AM CDT
Singulair, developed by Merck, is a CysLT1 receptor inhibitor, blocking the physiologic actions of leukotriene D4 (LTD4). LTD4 belongs to the family of Cys-LTs, which are mediators released from a variety of cells, including mast cells and eosinophils, and which bind to the family of CysLT receptors. Several studies have determined that there are higher concentrations of Cys-LTs in the airways and urine of asthmatics compared with non-asthmatic individuals. The production of CysLTs is increased in asthmatics, particularly during the early phase of bronchoconstriction that follows allergen challenge. Cys-LT signaling results in airway edema, smooth muscle contraction, and aberrant immune cell activity.
