According to the results of a prospective phase 1/2 study reported in the April 15 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association,In an experimental protocol In Brazil, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients (who needed regular insulin shots) helped achieve long-term insulin free life along with improved beta-cell function.
Who will believe this strange idea that Teflon which is used as a protective coat for our frying pan to make it non-stick, could ever help a groundbreaking stem cell research.
2007’s Nobel laureate for medicine renowned Italian-American scientist Mario Capecchi invented a novel technique to find out hidden stem cell within the pancreas. A research article on this work has been published in the Proceedings of the National Accademy of Sciences (PNAS).
Endoderm cells are precursor cells that can eventually develop into cells of the pancreas, lungs, intestine, liver, thymus, bladder and thyroid. Form now as per on U.S. Patent 7,510,876 Novocell will control over all endoderm cells made from human embryonic stem cells.
Recent adult stem cell trials(phase I) on type 2 diabetic patients are showing encouraging results. The new treatment shows the ability to produce natural insulin inside the body and thus really offers positive hope to the 24 millions of Americans who are suffering from the killer disease.
Thank God this senseless ban has been lifted. Its a great relief for the scientists, relief for the families of the sufferers who are suffering from killer diseases and knows that their days are limited, relief for the non political world, who believes that science is not politics.
Utterly shocking and religiously heartbreaking news!
Creation Vs destruction ….. Embryonic stem cell research Vs Religion, violation …. controversy … .debates … .conflicts ….. finally ends with US president Barrack Obama coming into the big picture.
Chandler Simpson was 7 when she was learned to be a patient of type 1 diabetes. Now she and her family are waiting for the ongoing research in the Wake Forest University’s Institute for Regenerative Medicine. The researchers there are trying to to grow cells in the lab that, once implanted in the body, will render Type 1 diabetes a thing of the past. If it is reached, it could prevent debilitating ailments in, and perhaps save many of the lives of, the roughly 1 million Americans with Type 1 diabetes.
Renowned Stem cell engineering company Novocell,Inc., yesterday announced that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has issued two patents related to its stem cell encapsulation technology and granted Notice of Allowance for a patent relating to the Company’s technology for the isolation of clinical-grade human embryonic stem cell (hESC) lines.
