New stem cell technique for growing working liver cells could avoid liver transplant. A Sanger Institute research.

The British researchers from Sanger Institute used cutting-edge methods to correct a genetic mutation in stem cells derived from a patient's skin biopsy, and then grew them into fresh liver cells

…they could transform medicine, providing treatments for blindness, spinal cord and other severe injuries, and new cells for damaged organs. The Sanger Institute research is focused on two main forms: 1. embryonic stem cells, which are harvested from embryos, 2. reprogrammed cells, also known as induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells), which are reprogrammed from ordinary skin or blood cells. i…

Potential breakthrough in cancer research: a new treatment for leukemia had amazing results.

"Microscopic image showing two T cells binding to beads, depicted in yellow, that cause the cells to divide. After the beads are removed, the T cells are infused into cancer patients." (Dr. Carl June / Pennsylvania Medicine)

…lymphocytic leukemia and infected their T cells with the virus. When they infused the blood back into the patients, the engineered T cells successfully eradicated cancer cells, multiplied to more than 1,000 times in number and survived for months. They even produced dormant “memory” T cells that might spring back to life if the cancer was to return.   On average, the team calculat…

Stem cells can halt ageing and even prolong lifespans up to three times

…difference between the cells in the mice with the ageing disorder – they had fewer, the ones they had regenerated less quickly than ordinary mouse stem cells. However, injecting stem cells into 17 day-old mice saw a huge increase in their lifespans – from an average of just 21-28 days to more than 66 days, three times longer than usual. The modified mice given stem cell shots grew alm…

Tumors growth driven by cancer stem cells, new research discovers

Three separate studies on mice appear to have confirmed the view that the growth of tumors is driven by so-called cancer stem cells

Researchers have discovered the cells in tumors that seem to be responsible for their re-growth. Three separate studies on mice appear to have confirmed the view that the growth of tumors is driven by so-called cancer stem cells. The researchers claim to have resolved one of the biggest controversies in cancer research and say their work marks a “paradigm shift” in the field. The stud…

Potential breakthrough HIV infection cure developed from genetically engineered human stem cells

Human stem cells can be genetically engineered into “warrior” cells that fight HIV and can attack HIV-infected cells inside a tissue

…IV from an infected patient. Much HIV research focuses on vaccines or drugs that slow the virus’s progress – but this new technique could offer hope of a “cure”. The study, published April 12 in the journal PLoS Pathogens, demonstrates for the first time that engineering stem cells to form immune cells that target HIV is effective in suppressing the virus in living tissues. “We believe…

Heart muscle cells grown in lab from skin cells

Israeli scientists say they have managed to turn patients' own skin cells into healthy heart muscle in the lab

Israeli scientists say they have managed to turn patients’ own skin cells into healthy heart muscle in the lab. Ultimately they hope this stem cell therapy could be used to treat heart failure patients. As the transplanted cells are from the individual patient this could avoid the problem of tissue rejection, they told the European Heart Journal. Early tests in animals proved promising but…

Stem cells could be used as shield to protect the body from chemotherapy effects

Israeli scientists warn that sitting down for too long may give you a big bottom

Israeli scientists warn that sitting down for too long may give you a big bottom. Not just eating junk food put your bottom at risk – sitting all day in the office is just as likely to broaden your rear. The warning comes from a scientist who usually researches bed sores which can affect those bedridden or in a wheelchair due to paralysis. Israeli scientists warn that sitting down for too long m…

Skin stem cells become “grandparents”

Stem cells made from skin have become "grandparents" after generations of life were created in experiments by scientists in Japan

Stem cells made from skin have become “grandparents” after generations of life were created in experiments by scientists in Japan. The cells were used to create eggs, which were fertilized to produce baby mice. These later had their own babies. If the technique could be adapted for people, it could help infertile couples have children and even allow women to overcome the menopause. Bu…

Immune cells can repel attacks from HIV by starving the virus, say scientists

HIV attacks the immune system and can weaken the body's defenses to the point that everyday infections become fatal

An international research team has shown how some cells in the body can repel attacks from HIV by starving the virus of the building blocks of life. Viruses cannot replicate on their own; they must hijack other cells and turn them into virus production factories. The study, published in Nature Immunology, showed how some parts of the immune system destroy their own raw materials, stopping HIV. It…

Tanycytes: newly discovered brain cells could rewire appetite control

A group of brain cells called tanycytes, which were identified as having the power to control appetite, could be the major cause of eating disorders such as obesity

…the university’s school of biological sciences, who led the research, said the discovery could eventually offer a permanent solution for tackling obesity – but it would take up to five or 10 years to translate the findings into humans. “This study has shown that the neural circuitry that controls appetite is not fixed in number and could possibly be manipulated numerically to ta…

Scientists in the US have created a free swimming artificial jellyfish using silicone as a base on which to grow heart muscle cells that were harvested from rats. They used an electric current to shock the Medusoid into swimming with synchronized contractions that mimic those of real jellyfish. The advance, by researchers at Caltech and Harvard University, is reported in the journal Nature Biotec…

Chemotherapy can undermine itself by causing a rogue response in healthy cells

A new study suggests that chemotherapy can undermine itself by causing a rogue response in healthy cells, which could explain why people become resistant. The treatment loses effectiveness for a significant number of patients with secondary cancers. Writing in Nature Medicine, US experts said chemo causes wound-healing cells around tumors to make a protein that helps the cancer resist treatment….

Vitamin B3 helps immune cells to kill resistant Staphylococcus bacteria
