Lupus Study Shows Promising Results Using Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells | Scimitar Equity Blog by David Granovsky Posted Mon 07 Jun 2010 9:35pm Lupus Study Shows Promising Results Using Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells June 7th, 2010 Henry McCusker The new study shows that umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell transplant (UC-MSCT) may improve symptoms and biochemical values in patients with severe refractory systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In the 5/10 issue Read on »
Intraspinal implant of mesenchymal stem cells may not heal the demyelinated spinal cord by stuart Patient Expert Posted Wed 14 Jan 2009 8:22pm mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) (derived from a different rat's adult bone marrow, i.e. allogenic) into the demyelinated rat spinal cord would be therapeutic and remyelinate the damaged... the nerve fibers of the spinal cord. Therapeutic hope for curing multiple sclerosis and other demyelinating diseases has included the possibility that stem cell transplants could help Read on »
Mesenchymal Stem Cells, Advances & Applications by Jessica S. Facebook Posted Tue 22 Mar 2011 7:18am , scientific publication rates, and patent applications reveal that research activity involving mesenchymal stem cells increased 58% year-over-year from 2008 to 2009, and 112% from 2009 to 2010. Of most interest is that this rate of increase is projected to accelerate in 2011, making mesenchymal stem cells the fastest growing area of stem cell research Read on »
MS Trial Alert: Investigators in Ohio Recruiting 24 People for Study of Autologous Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation by stuart Patient Expert Posted Wed 20 Jan 2010 12:00am and tolerability of transplanting one’s own mesenchymal stem cells (derived from bone marrow). The study is being conducted at Cleveland Clinic Mellen MS Center, University Hospitals Case Medical Center, and the National Center for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine, all in Cleveland. This study is supported by the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs Read on »
Autologous mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation in MS by stuart Patient Expert Posted Tue 19 Jan 2010 12:00am in the late spring/early summer of 2010. This is a Phase I study examining autologous mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in MS. As a Phase I study, the primary focus... is called autologous mesenchymal stem cell transplant. A person in the study will have some bone marrow removed from their hip. In the bone marrow is a type of stem cell called Read on »
First We Had Spray On Stem Cells and Now The Stem Cell Skin Gun for Wound Care Speeds Healing- Regenerative Medicine by Medical Quack Patient ExpertHealth Maven Posted Fri 04 Feb 2011 11:00am Regenerative medicine is moving so fast as it was just 2 months ago I posted about an up and coming trial to where a patient’s own stem cells from their bone marrow is being sprayed.  The video here shows a man who was burned quite badly and when you see how the skin looked in about 4 days, this amazing.  I think stem cells are the future Read on »
Do Stem Cells Repair Damaged Brain Cells by David Granovsky Posted Tue 25 Aug 2009 7:33pm mesenchymal stem cells - can identify unhealthy or damaged tissues, migrate to them, and potentially repair or halt cell degeneration. findings have been reported in the journal Stem Cells. Read on »
Turning Ordinary Cells into Stem Cells by Northcoast Footcare Facebook Posted Wed 04 Nov 2009 10:06pm Stem cells are the body’s master cells and have the amazing capability of developing into various types of cells. They can be induced to become specific types of tissues or organs and are able to renew themselves through cell division. These features make stem cells quite remarkable and different from other types Continue Reading » Social Read on »
ADULT CELLS, STEM CELLS & CANCER by David Granovsky Posted Mon 19 Sep 2011 12:00am by telling you ‘adult stem cells‘ may fight cancer…. but later in the article refer to them as ‘adult cells…’ and even later as ‘induced pluripotent stem cells.’ But don’t be fooled by this semantic sleight of hand. Induced pluripotent stem cells are semantically ‘adult cells’ only in the sense that in an adult can be referred to as adult cells Read on »
Abstract from journal Cell on stem cells by Dr. Brian M. Medical DoctorHealth Maven Posted Tue 26 Aug 2008 11:36pm in Cell: "Successful reprogramming of differentiated human somatic cells into a pluripotent state would allow creation of patient- and disease-specific stem cells. We previously reported generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, capable of germline transmission, from mouse somatic cells by transduction of four defined transcription Read on »
