What Are Stem Cells and Stem Cell Therapy Stemenhance – Video

Posted: Published on November 20th, 2012

What Are Stem Cells and Stem Cell Therapy Stemenhance http://www.stemcellproduct.net This video gives you the definition, facts, and understanding on what are stem cells, that there are two of them embryonic and adult stem cells, how they work and the uses of stem cell when the tissue is affected in your body and how messengers signal the bone marrow to release adult stem cells to help in the repair of the injured tissue. Why this information is exciting for me to do a video is because I see stemcells as the best way of how to produce optimal health in your body. The way I look at it is that optimal health equals the number of healthy cells in your body and the only way the body repairs a damaged area is by creating and sending adult stem cells to that area. That's why I'm introducing a stem cell product from a nutrition company who patented a stem cell enhancer which supports the release of adult stem cells. What will also excite you too is that Stemtech (the stemcell company) has also come out with two other products that will also optimize the circulation of these stem cells … Continue reading

cord blood registry | The Development of Umbilical Cord Blood Stem Cell Therapy http://www.cordbloodrecommendation.com These diseases include blood related, genetic and neurotic disorders. ""Banking the umbilical cord blood when your baby is born is a relatively new idea, the first operation using it to help cure a child with Leukemia was only done a little over 10 years ago. After processing of cells, comes the next procedure of cord blood preservation. There is also another option given by non-profit cord blood banks, of free programs through which one can store umbilical cord blood stem cell samples. A man can change his god-gifted features wishfully with the help of science. Given the progress that stem cell research and regenerative medicine have attained at present, and the promise that they show for the future, stem cell transplants may one day provide a cure for type 1 diabetes, heart disease, and brain injury, among other potentially life threatening and debilitating illnesses and conditions with inadequate treatment options today. With people not fully understanding how important stem cells could be for us, everybody agrees that more research need to be done in order to help understand all that. If there is any complication during … Continue reading

NUI Galway to lead €6m research project into stem cell therapy for diabetes

Posted: Published on November 20th, 2012

The Irish Times - Monday, November 19, 2012 CLAIRE O'CONNELL Could a particular type of adult stem cell offer a useful therapy for diabetes? An EU-funded project being led by NUI Galway hopes to find out. The 6 million Reddstar project will assess whether the stem cells can tackle glucose levels and various complications of diabetes, including diabetic ulcers and eye, nerve, heart and kidney and bone damage. The approach centres on a specific adult stem-cell population owned by Orbsen Therapeutics, a spin-out from the Science Foundation Ireland-funded Regenerative Medicine Institute (Remedi) at NUI Galway. Initially, the project will develop ways to grow the bone-marrow-derived stem cells in a way that is useful for trials, according to company co-founder and Remedi director Prof Tim OBrien. The cells will then be tested in several preclinical models of diabetic complications at centres in Galway, Belfast, Munich, Berlin and Porto. Then the plan is to select one complication for which the adult stem cells will be assessed in human trials in Denmark. The three-year EU funding will support nine jobs in Ireland, five of which will be in Orbsen Therapeutics, according to CEO Brian Molloy, who says the project should help to build … Continue reading

TUCSON, Ariz., Nov. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. David Harris, Professor of Immunology at the University of Arizona and a scientific pioneer in the field of stem cell banking, was the recipient of the Arizona BioIndustry Association (AZBIO) 2012 award for "20 Years of Discovery and Innovation". The annual AZBIO Awards is Arizona's premier bioscience event and was held at the Phoenix Convention Center. Dr. Harris is a graduate of Wake Forest University, the leading center for stem cell regenerative medicine and tissue engineering in the world today. In 1991, Dr. Harris became the first person to bank stem cells for future use. He did so by banking his first child's cord blood stem cells. In 1992, Dr. Harris founded the Arizona Cord Blood Bank which later evolved to become the Cord Blood Registry [CBR], the largest cord blood stem cell bank in the world. Dr. Harris continues as Chief Science Officer at CBR.

Cancer: The stem cells that make cancer run riot. Kill them and you could destroy the disease…

Posted: Published on November 20th, 2012

By Steve Boggan PUBLISHED: 21:34 EST, 19 November 2012 | UPDATED: 21:34 EST, 19 November 2012 Professor Ian Mackenzie points to a little jumble of cells on a computer screen and smiles. Theyre cancer stem cells, he says. Not everyone in medicine believes in them yet, but look there they are. Even to the untrained eye, its clear there are two distinct types of cell; one that groups together a little like frogspawn, and another that looks like a slug. Stem cells, which are found in tissue all over the body, can grow into every kind of cell, including bone, skin and blood cells If you watched the slug-like one for long enough, youd see it move, says the professor. We believe this type of stem cell facilitates the spread of cancer and that the other is responsible for the growth of tumours and for making them return after you think your cancer has gone away. In Professor Mackenzies laboratory at Barts and the London Medical Schools Blizard Institute, researchers are busy extracting these cells from tumours. Their work represents a potentially extraordinary new approach to the disease. Read more: Cancer: The stem cells that make cancer run riot. Kill … Continue reading

Pfizer Reports Top-Line Results Of A Phase 3 Study Evaluating Pregabalin Controlled-Release Formulation As Adjunctive …

Posted: Published on November 20th, 2012

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE) today announced top-line results of a double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 3 study evaluating both the 165 mg dose and the 330 mg dose of pregabalin controlled-release (CR) formulation in adult patients with partial onset seizures with epilepsy. These study results indicate pregabalin CR did not meet its primary endpoint comparing the change in seizure frequency to placebo, although both doses were well-tolerated. This study is one of three Phase 3 studies of the pregabalin CR formulation, which will ascertain the potential use of pregabalin as a once-a-day therapy. The other two studies are evaluating the pregabalin CR formulation in fibromyalgia and post-herpetic neuralgia. Pfizer will continue to further analyze these top-line results as well as the top-line results of the other two studies. "While the study showed an observed improvement, it did not show a statistically significant difference in seizure frequency, which we believe may have been due to a higher-than-expected placebo response," said Steven J. Romano, M.D., senior vice president, head, Medicines Development Group, Global Primary Care Business Unit, Pfizer Inc. "Lyrica immediate-release has a proven success record in patients with epilepsy, and we look forward to understanding further the potential role of a … Continue reading
