Scientists control cells following transplantation, from the inside out

Posted: Published on January 11th, 2014

17 hours ago This is Harvard Associate Professor Jeffrey Karp, Ph.D. (left), and James Ankrum, Ph.D. (right). Credit: Brigham and Women's Hospital Harvard stem cells scientists at Brigham and Women's Hospital and MIT can now engineer cells that are more easily controlled following transplantation, potentially making cell therapies, hundreds of which are currently in clinical trials across the United States, more functional and efficient. Associate Professor Jeffrey Karp, PhD, and James Ankrum, PhD, demonstrate in this month's issue of Nature Protocols how to load cells with microparticles that provide the cells cues for how they should behave over the course of days or weeks as the particles degrade. "Regardless of where the cell is in the body, it's going to be receiving its cues from the inside," said Karp, a Harvard Stem Cell Institute Principal Faculty member at Brigham and Women's Hospital. "This is a completely different strategy than the current method of placing cells onto drug-doped microcarriers or scaffolds, which is limiting because the cells need to remain in close proximity to those materials in order to function. Also these types of materials are too large to be infused into the bloodstream." Cells are relatively simple to control in … Continue reading →

Study: potentially life-saving blood stem cells regenerate in artificial bone marrow

Posted: Published on January 11th, 2014

A team of biochemists has engineered artificial bone marrow capable of hosting hematopoietic stem cells -- the potentially life-saving cells used in the treatment of leukemia -- for regeneration. The work was carried out at the KIT Institute of Functional Interfaces (IFG), the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems, Stuttgart and Tbingen University in Germany, where Cornelia Lee-Thedieck led a team in building a scaffold for stem cell regeneration. Hematopoietic stem cells, which are derived from both blood and bone marrow, are known for their extraordinary regenerative properties -- they can differentiate into a whole series of specialised cells in the body and travel into the blood from the bone marrow. This makes it an excellent treatment for cancers of the blood, including leukemia and lymphoma where underdeveloped white blood cells multiply out of control. In these cases the patient's own supply of hematopoietic cells is destroyed and they are replenished via a bone marrow transplant from a matched donor. These are not in plentiful supply, so for years artificial bone marrow has been in development to help fill the need -- existing hematopoietic stem cells only replenish and thrive within the complex, porous structure of bone marrow and do … Continue reading →

Supporters of medical marijuana attend hearing in Frankfort

Posted: Published on January 10th, 2014

FRANKFORT Junction City resident Mary Gross never imagined leaving her home state of Kentucky, but she plans to do so in the near future so her infant daughter can try cannabis oil treatment for epilepsy. Gross, 33, was one of dozens of concerned parents who attended Thursdays meeting of the House Standing Committee On Health and Welfare at the Kentucky State Capitol. The hearing, which lasted close to two hours, was partially devoted to the issue of legalizing medical marijuana. An online service is needed to view this article in its entirety.

Now to a health alert... New research has found magnetic resonance imaging, better known as MRI, may be useful in treating victims of stroke. Researchers are trying to determine if someone who has had a stroke will be helped by a procedure to REMOVE a blood clot in the brain ... or break it up. 3 00-0811-18 DR. SHAZAM HUSSAIN TREATS STROKE PATIENTS AT CLEVELAND CLINIC AND LED THE STUDY. HE SAYS USING MRI IN ADDITION TO STANDARD TESTS MAY HELP DOCTORS BETTER DETERMINE WHO IS BEST FOR TREATMENT.CG: Dr. Shazam Hussain/Cleveland Clinic "It really does give us a lot more information and then we can really target those people who have a large amount of brain to save and they're really going to benefit from therapy." 5:28:02 TRADITIONALLY A C-T SCAN IS USED TO DETERMINE HOW MUCH DAMAGE A STROKE HAS CAUSED. DR. HUSSAIN AND HIS TEAM ADDED AN MRI TO SEE IF IT WOULD GET THEM A BETTER PICTURE OF HOW MUCH BRAIN INJURY HAD ALREADY OCCURRED. IF TOO MUCH DAMAGE HAS TAKEN PLACE, PROCEDURES DESIGNED TO REMOVE OR BREAK UP CLOTS IN THE BRAIN COULD PUT A PATIENT AT GREATER RISK, AND PROVIDE LITTLE BENEFIT. RESULTS SHOW … Continue reading →

Gene therapy for Parkinson’s produces promising results in first patient trial

Posted: Published on January 10th, 2014

The ProSavin treatment uses an inert virus to carry corrective genes directly into the striatum region of the brain that controls movement. It is designed to convert ordinary nerve cells into factories for making dopamine, the signalling chemical that is lost in Parkinson's patients. Loading article content Lack of dopamine activity leads to the common Parkinson's symptoms of tremor, slow movement and rigidity. The trial tested the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of three different doses of ProSavin in 15 patients aged 48 to 65 with advanced Parkinson's disease who were not responding to conventional treatments. A standard system of rating motor functions was used, covering speech, tremors, rigidity, finger taps, posture, gait, and slow movement. Lower scores indicated better muscle control and co-ordination. Significant score improvements were seen after six months and a year in all patients not taking medication. Reporting their findings in The Lancet medical journal, the researchers led by Professor Stephane Palfi, from Les Hopitaux Universitaires Henri-Mondor in Creteil, France, wrote: "ProSavin was safe and well tolerated in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease. Improvement in motor behaviour was observed in all patients." They stressed that, while promising, the results at this stage were still limited and should … Continue reading →
