A glimmer of hope for children facing blindness

Posted: Published on November 10th, 2014

The parents of eight-year-old Finley, who has lost most of her central vision, set up the RDH12 Fund for Sight. Whenever she dropped her toy or dummy, shed lean down to pick it up, but then freeze for a moment, unable to find it. In the kitchen, if the fridge was open andshe was looking at me, shed walk into the door it wouldnt appear in her peripheral vision. Yiota Charalambous is describing how she first began to suspect that her daughter Anna, then aged two, had a problem with her sight. Bumping into objects that leap out of the snowstorm of faulty peripheral vision is a hazard that is painfully familiar to me, and others like me, who have the degenerative eye disorder retinitis pigmentosa (RP). The condition is the most common cause of blindness among working-age people in the west, affecting one in 3,500. Unlike Anna, though, most of us are not diagnosed until we are adults. I was 26 a fairly typical age to receive the fateful news. Anna is anything but typical, in that she has a rare form of RP known as Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA). Though everyone with RP shares a similar fate partial … Continue reading →

Spain to research HIV cure using umbilical cord blood

Posted: Published on November 10th, 2014

The National Transplant Organization (ONT) and the Spanish Hematology and Hemotherapy Society (SEHH) have launched a joint project to see if the HIV virus can be eliminated by carrying out stem cell transplants on patients who also suffer from cancers of the blood or bone marrow. The idea is to improve the study of the method that has so far led to the only known case of someone being cured of HIV: Timothy Ray Brown, a US citizen known to the medical world as The Berlin Patient, who has been free of the virus for four years following a hematopoietic stem cell transplant, despite being off antiretroviral medication. ONT director Rafael Matesanz said they would search Spanish umbilical cord banks for high-quality samples with a mutation in a receptor called CCR5 delta32. This protein is one of the locks that HIV picks open in order to infect the lymphocites, explained Javier Martnez of IrsiCaixa, a center specializing in HIV treatment. Its the same thing that was done with the Berlin Patient. In September 2013, a 37-year-old Barcelona man submitted to the same experimental treatment, said Rafael Duarte, director of the Hematopoietic Transplant Program at the Catalan Cancer Institute. This patient … Continue reading →

Special arrangement Dr. Rashmi Shetty - Celeb Cosmetic Physician 3 Rashmi Shetty had finished her medical studies and was training to be a plastic surgeon when life took a new turn. I got married and moved to Mumbai from Bangalore. I didnt find suitable postings and so I looked for ways to make people look beautiful. Thats how the Mumbai-based expert in non-surgical aesthetic medicine started off on a path that has led her to where she is now. Dr. Rashmi recently launched her first book Age Erase. I was travelling a lot to give technical lectures and was invited as a speaker to various events. I got a lot of questions on skincare and hair issues and realised that though there was a wealth of information online no one knew what to trust or what really works. I hence decided to create a credible source on skincare for laymen, she says. Age Erase is meant to be a ready reckoner for those just starting a proper skin and hair care regimen and also clarifies doubts for those already following their own. It also gives an idea of the right questions to ask a doctor if you choose to go … Continue reading →

Parkinson's stem cell therapy works in rats

Posted: Published on November 10th, 2014

Dopamine-making neurons derived from human embryonic stem cells. A rat model of Parkinson's disease has been successfully treated with neurons derived from human embryonic stem cells, according to a study led by Swedish scientists. Its a promising sign for scientists at The Scripps Research Institute and Scripps Health who hope to perform similar therapy on Parkinsons patients, using artificial embryonic stem cells. In rats and people, neurons that make the neurotransmitter dopamine are essential for normal movement. The cells are destroyed in Parkinson's, leading to the difficulty in movement that characterizes the disease. Researchers transplanted dopamine-producing cells grown from human embryonic stem cells into the brains of rats whose own dopamine-making neurons had been destroyed. The rats were immune-suppressed so they would not reject the cells. Within five months, the transplanted cells boosted dopamine production to normal levels, restoring normal movement in the rats. The study was published Thursday in the journal Cell Stem Cell. The senior author was Malin Parmar of Lund University in Lund, Sweden. The results support the Scripps approach of using the artificial embryonic stem cells, called induced pluripotent stem cells, said Jeanne Loring, who heads the Center for Regenerative Medicine at The Scripps Research Institute … Continue reading →
