BrainStorm Cell Therapeutics (OTCBB: BCLI), a leader in Adult Stem Cell Research, announced today that it has initiated a safety trial using an animal model of Parkinson’s disease in primates.
27 февраля 2007
The use of pure cord blood stem cells by a team of research doctors in Mexico has resulted in breakthrough improvements in patients with Alzheimer's disease and progressive multiple sclerosis.
26 февраля 2007
Cardiologists are increasingly using adult stem cells in clinical trials to repair hearts following heart attacks, but no one has understood how the therapy actually works. Now, in animal experiments, researchers at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center have deconstructed the process, describing how the stem cells fuse with heart muscle cells to create new cells that repopulate the ailing organ
25 февраля 2007
Japanese researchers said human eggs from fertilization clinics that would otherwise be discarded might be capable of producing embryonic stem cells.
24 февраля 2007
Cartilage is an exceptionally slow-healing tissue, and, until now, the missing or damaged tissue is often irreplaceable. Researchers at the University of Guelph are hoping stem cells might provide the needed tissue replacements.
23 февраля 2007
A private foundation is giving UC Irvine $1 million to explore ways to use human embryonic stem cells to treat age-related macular degeneration, the largest cause of blindness in people 65 or older.
22 февраля 2007
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine have derived uniparental embryonic stem cells - created from a single donor's eggs or two sperm - and, for the first time, successfully used them to repopulate a damaged organ with healthy cells in adult mice.
21 февраля 2007
Although treatment regimens involving the infusion of tumor-reactive T cells into patients with skin cancer (melanoma) have shown clinical benefit, there is plenty of room to improve the protocols to increase therapeutic benefit.
20 февраля 2007
Japanese researchers said on Sunday they had grown normal-looking teeth from single cells in lab dishes, and transplanted them into mice.
19 февраля 2007
Opexa Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:OPXA), a company involved in the development and commercialization of cell therapies, announced encouraging data from a clinical trial of 15 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

The presence of newly generated cells in a brain region responsible for processing smells has been revealed in middle-aged and elderly people
17 февраля 2007
Sernova Corp. (TSX-V: SVA), is pleased to announce its preliminary, preclinical animal studies have demonstrated long term survival and functioning of Sertolin, the Company's patented insulin producing cellular replacement therapy.
16 февраля 2007
Human nerve stem cells transplanted into rats' damaged spinal cords have survived, grown and in some cases connected with the rats' own spinal cord cells in a Johns Hopkins laboratory, overturning the long-held notion that spinal cords won't allow nerve repair.
15 февраля 2007
New research from Rockefeller University and Howard Hughes Medical Institute scientists now shows that adult stem cells taken from skin can be used to clone mice using a procedure called nuclear transfer
14 февраля 2007
Scientists harvested the stem cells from the women's own fat and encouraged them to form breast tissue.
13 февраля 2007
Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center scientists have found a set of “master switches” that keep adult blood-forming stem cells in their primitive state. Unlocking the switches’ code may one day enable scientists to grow new blood cells for transplant into patients with cancer and other bone marrow disorders.
12 февраля 2007
Case Study Reports That Orthopedic Trauma Surgeon Injects Adult Stem Cells Derived From the Patient's Own Marrow Into Her Broken Legs, Which Had Not Healed by Seven Months Post-Injury -- Instead of Open Surgery
11 февраля 2007
Pluristem Life Systems, Inc. (OTCBB: PLRS - News), a cell therapy company dedicated to the commercialization of stem cell products, today announced evidence that its PLX-I cells have proven to be immune privileged.
10 февраля 2007
Opexa Therapeutics, Inc., a company involved in the development and commercialization of cell therapies, announced today that it has admitted the first 75 patients in its 150-patient Phase IIb clinical trial of Tovaxin(TM) in multiple sclerosis.
09 февраля 2007
MGVS - MultiGene Vascular Systems Ltd. has begun Phase I human clinical trials of its MultiGeneGraf cell therapy for growing blood vessels.
08 февраля 2007
Using a unique weaving machine of their design, Duke University Medical Center researchers have created a three-dimensional fabric "scaffold" that could greatly improve the ability of physicians to repair damaged joints with the patient's own stem cells.
07 февраля 2007
Doctors have implanted adult stem cells extracted from a man's fat tissue through liposuction into his heart, in an experimental treatment for angina and heart disease, a Spanish hospital said on Tuesday.
06 февраля 2007

05 февраля 2007
By extracting stem cells from the bone marrow in a patient's pelvis, doctors can mix the substance with ground bone and better fuse and stabilize spines following sensitive surgery - helping patients to recover and feel less back pain quicker.
04 февраля 2007
The first stem cell therapy targeting a major brain disorder, chronic stroke, could begin clinical trials this year
03 февраля 2007
A research team led by Prof. Claude Perreault, Universitй de Montrйal, is announcing a major discovery in Genomics. This will generate a fundamental impact on the treatment of blood cancers (leukemias and lymphomes) by means of peripheral blood T-cell grafts.
02 февраля 2007
Scientists are a step closer to growing replacement organs and tissues which can be transplanted into patients. Their breakthrough uses tiny protein scaffolds that encourage stem cells to grow into three-dimensional structures for the first time.
