Paper Describing Universal Stem Cell Product Earns Author the 2014 SCTM Young Investigator Award

Posted: Published on February 5th, 2015

Durham, NC (PRWEB) February 04, 2015 STEM CELLS Translational Medicine (SCTM) presented Marc H. Dahlke, M.D., Ph.D. its second annual STEM CELLS Translational Medicine Young Investigator Award. The award fosters advancements in the field of stem cells and regenerative medicine by honoring a young researcher who is principle author of an article published in SCTM over the course of a year that is deemed to have the most impact and to push the boundaries of novel and insightful research. Dr. Dahlkes paper describes the discovery of a universal stem cell product that not only seems to increase the long-term survival of organ transplants in instances when the donor is not related to the recipient, but also retains that immunological privileged state when the organ is then transplanted into yet another unrelated recipient. The paper was published in the August 2013 issue of SCTM. This excellent study by Dr. Dahlke and his co-authors demonstrate the potential for multipotent adult progenitor cells to serve as a universal cell product. Being able to reduce the level of immunosuppressant drugs post-transplant could have significant benefits to patients, said Anthony Atala, M.D., Editor-in-Chief of SCTM. This study represents a promising pathway for clinical immunotherapy, and … Continue reading →

More people should register as stem cell donors: experts

Posted: Published on February 5th, 2015

Ankit Vaghasia and Jinal Patel had never heard of each other, and until this week, never met. And yet, one year ago, when 17-year-old Ankit was in need of a stem cell transplant to treat his acute myeloid leukaemia, 24-year-old Jinal donated her cells to him. It wasnt an easy process, said Raghu Rajagopal, chief executive officer of DATRI Blood Stem Cell Donors Registry, which brought the two together. On Wednesday, speaking at Apollo Hospitals, where the stem cell transplantation took place, he said getting the donation required counselling Jinals family, her fianc and his family, and even their community. But Jinal was determined to donate and made sure the process went through, he said. Over 1,00,000 Indians are diagnosed with blood cancer and other blood-related disorders every year. Stem cell donations can go a long way towards increasing their survival chances, said paediatric hemato-oncologist Revathi Raj. But finding donors within the family is very difficult, especially now, with smaller families. More people should come forward and register as donors. They can make a huge difference to someones life, she said. I am happy and proud to have saved Ankits life. If you are a match for someone, you must … Continue reading →

Progress of mesenchymal stem cell therapy for neural and …

Posted: Published on February 5th, 2015

Complex circuitry and limited regenerative power make central nervous system (CNS) disorders the most challenging and difficult for functional repair. With elusive disease mechanisms, traditional surgical and medical interventions merely slow down the progression of the neurodegenerative diseases. However, the number of neurons still diminishes in many patients. Recently, stem cell therapy has been proposed as a viable option. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), a widely-studied human adult stem cell population, have been discovered for more than 20 years. MSCs have been found all over the body and can be conveniently obtained from different accessible tissues: bone marrow, blood, and adipose and dental tissue. MSCs have high proliferative and differentiation abilities, providing an inexhaustible source of neurons and glia for cell replacement therapy. Moreover, MSCs also show neuroprotective effects without any genetic modification or reprogramming. In addition, the extraordinary immunomodulatory properties of MSCs enable autologous and heterologous transplantation. These qualities heighten the clinical applicability of MSCs when dealing with the pathologies of CNS disorders. Here, we summarize the latest progress of MSC experimental research as well as human clinical trials for neural and retinal diseases. This review article will focus on multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, autism, glaucoma, retinitis pigmentosa and … Continue reading →
