Texas on track to become first state to explicitly back stem cell … – STAT

Posted: Published on May 31st, 2017

L awmakers in Austinhave approved a billauthorizing unapproved stem cell therapies, puttingTexas on track to become the first state to explicitly recognize the experimental treatments. The measure now heads to Governor Greg Abbott, who has signaled his support for it. For years, clinics across the country have been offeringexperimentalstem cell therapies for patients with chronic conditions or terminal illnesses, but no state has given them legal validation. Instead, clinics have largely operated under the radar of regulatory authorities, toutingtreatments for a range of injuries and diseases. advertisement Many scientists, meantime, have warnedthat unapproved stem cell therapies can be not only ineffective but harmful outside limited and closely watched clinical trials. Infant gets experimental stem cell injection to try to repair his heart The Texas measure was finalized Monday before the end of the Legislatures session. Senators added amendments that would require the treatments to be delivered by a doctor at a hospital or ambulatory medical center and with the approval of an institutional review board, which reviews research that involves human participants. Another amendment would allow patients to sue should the treatment go awry. Advocates who opposed the measure as it was introduced said they were still uneasy with aspects … Continue reading →

Patients’ stem cells point to potential treatments for motor neuron disease – Cosmos

Posted: Published on May 31st, 2017

Physicist Stephen Hawking is perhaps the most famous sufferer of motor neuron disease, a crippling degenerative condition that affects an estimated 150,00 people around the world. Karwai Tang / Getty In news that may bring hope to Stephen Hawking and hundreds of thousands of others around the world, British scientists have used reprogrammed skin cells to study the development of motor neuron disease. Its like changing the postcode of a house without actually moving it, explains neuroscientist Rickie Patani, referring to research offering startling new insights into the progress and treatment of the crippling degenerative condition, also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Patani, together with colleague Sonia Gandhi, both from the Francis Crick Institute and University College London, in the UK, led a team of researchers investigating how the disease destroys the nerve cells that govern muscle movement. The results, published in the journal Cell Reports, comprise the most fine-grained work to date on how ALS operates on a molecular level and suggest powerful new treatment methods based on stem cells. Indeed, so exciting are the implications of the research that Ghandi and Patani are already working with pharmaceutical companies to develop their discoveries. The neurologists uncovered two key … Continue reading →

Utah company merging technology, biology to treat diseases – Deseret News

Posted: Published on May 31st, 2017

SALT LAKE CITY Chris Gibson is a really big thinker. The kind of thinker who strives to become an M.D. and a Ph.D at the same time. That was his plan a few years ago when he was in the University of Utah's dual degree program studying to become a cardiothoracic surgeon and a researcher. It was in the process of pursuing those degrees when he found himself in a laboratory working with Dr. Dean Li, one of the pre-eminent researchers at the school. "I had a background in bioengineering, and was working on bringing the engineering mentality to his more traditional biology and genetics lab," Gibson said. It was during that time when they were working on one disease when he made a discovery. "I noticed that when you modeled that disease in human cells, the disease cells looked really different," he explained. The difference was how the cells morphed into something that was totally unlike their original composition. That relatively minor recognition eventually became the impetus for launching a new kind of biotechnology company that combines information technology and biological research. "That's where we came up with this idea to use computer vision and machine learning to automate … Continue reading →
