All Articles Tagged As: progenitor cellsNew role found for a cardiac progenitor population (5/15/2008)In a discovery that could one day lead to an understanding of how to regenerate damaged heart tissue, researchers have found that parent cells involved in embryonic development of the epicardium - the cell layer surrounding the outside of the heart - give rise to three important types of cells with potential for cardiac repair. ...> Full Article Stem cells at root of antlers' branching (5/1/2008)
Joslin study identifies gene involved in blood stem cell replication, movement (4/10/2008)Finding may provide target to improve bone marrow and blood cell transplants ...> Full Article Stem Cells From Hair Follicles May Help 'Grow' New Blood Vessels (4/1/2008)
Scientists successfully awaken sleeping stem cells (3/20/2008)New hope for regenerating the human retina damaged by disease or injury ...> Full Article Injection of human umbilical cord blood helps aging brain (3/12/2008)When human umbilical cord blood cells were injected into aged laboratory animals, researchers found improvements in the microenvironment of the hippocampus region of the animals' brains and a subsequent rejuvenation of neural stem/progenitor cells. ...> Full Article Building Brains: Mammalian-like Neurogenesis In Fruit Flies (3/2/2008)
Adult stem cell application effective in treatment of peripheric vascular disease (1/24/2008)Multipotent adult progenitor stem cells extracted from bone marrow, and known as MAPCs, have proved to be effective in the regeneration of blood vessel tissue and also in muscle tissue when treating peripheric vascular disease ...> Full Article NYU Medical Center Awarded 1 Million Stem Cell Grant from New York State (1/13/2008)NYU Medical Center has received a grant of $1 Million from the Empire State Stem Cell Board, which-established in 2007 by Governor Eliot Spitzer-announced its first awards today. The award will be used to supplement funding for work already underway in NYU School of Medicine's Helen and Martin Kimmel Center of Stem Cell Biology, as well as to acquire state-of-the art equipment and to create training programs to attract more researchers to the stem cell field. ...> Full Article Researcher orks toward engineered blood vessels (12/19/2007)
Researchers identify granddaddy of human blood cells (12/15/2007)Researchers have isolated a human blood cell that represents the great-grandparent of all the cells of the blood, a finding that could lead to new treatments for blood cancers and other blood diseases. ...> Full Article Imaging Neural Progenitor Cells In The Living Human Brain (11/18/2007)
'Fingerprints' help find genes involved in differentiation (11/16/2007)A database that includes the molecular profiles of the major components of the blood system – including the stem cells and the cells differentiated from them – enabled researchers at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston to identify at least two genes involved in the differentiation process for two different kinds of blood cells. ...> Full Article Team of Scientists Develops Non-Invasive Method to Track Nerve-Cell Development in Live Human Brain (11/10/2007)A team of scientists have identified and validated the first biomarker that permits neural stem and progenitor cells (NPCs) to be tracked, non-invasively, in the brains of living human subjects. This important advance could lead to significantly better diagnosis and monitoring of brain tumors and a range of serious neurological and psychiatric disorders. ...> Full Article When Is A Stem Cell Not Really A Stem Cell? (8/28/2007)Working with embryonic mouse brains, a team of Johns Hopkins scientists seems to have discovered an almost-too-easy way to distinguish between "true" neural stem cells and similar, but less potent versions. Their finding, reported in Nature, could simplify the isolation of stem cells not only from brain but also other body tissues. ...> Full Article Progenitor Cell Acts Like Changeling to Become Whatever Cell Is Needed (7/13/2007)Human development has long been seen as a one-way street. During gestation, stem cells were thought to develop into a succession of ever more specialized cells. As Dr. R. Ariel Gomez has discovered, the final identity of these cells is not as definite as once thought. "The identity of many cell types is in a constant state of flux," Gomez says. ...> Full Article Researchers Identify Antioxidant Mechanisms Involved in Protection Against Cardiovascular Disease (5/4/2007)Zvonimir Katusic, M.D., Ph.D., and Mayo colleagues have identified antioxidant mechanisms essential for regenerative function of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). ...> Full Article Stem cell therapy shows promise for rescuing deteriorating vision (3/29/2007)For the millions of Americans whose vision is slowly ebbing due to degenerative diseases of the eye, the lowly neural progenitor cell may be riding to the rescue. ...> Full Article Building bone marrow with Stem Cells (3/20/2007)
Repairing Heart Damage caused by severe Coronary Artery Disease with Adult Stem Cells (2/5/2007)Dr. Gary Schaer, director of the Rush Cardiac Catheterization Lab and study investigator, is currently conducting Phase II clinical trials of a new stem cell technique to restore heart performance in patients with chronic myocardial ischemia (CMI), a severe form of coronary artery disease. ...> Full Article Tengion begins phase II clinical trial of regenerated human organ (1/16/2007)Tengion, Inc of East Norriton, PA has announced that it has launched phase II multi-center clinical study for its urinary neo-bladder construct. ...> Full Article Loans - Flights - Loans - Guitar Lessons |
