Bone marrow stem cells used to treat skin diseases In two groundbreaking studies, doctors have used stem cells from bone marrow to help heal children with a killer skin disease, and to repair injured lungs.Researchers led by University of Minnesota doctors John Wagner and Jakub Tolar used bone marrow stem cells to treat children with a rare genetic skin disorder called recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB). 2つの研究を画期的に、医師は骨髄から幹細胞をキラー皮膚病の子供を癒すために、および使用している負傷lungs.Researchersをミネソタ大学の医師ジョンワグナーとヤクブトラー主導修復するために骨髄を使用し細胞を子どもたちの治療に幹まれな遺伝性皮膚疾患は劣性栄養障害性表皮水疱症(RDEB)と呼ばれる

Dismembering the HFEA will not improve public confidence | Ruth Deech Taking regulation away from the accountable and expert figures of the HFEA is risky and misguided The question: How should the state regulate reproductive technologies?I was the chair of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) from 1994-2002. For most of my tenure I was paid the princely sum of £8,000 per annum, but it was a burden that I undertook with pride and as a privilege, grateful that infertility had not affected me, wishing to help others to be safely treated with respect for their dignity and to avoid exploitation. I remain in awe of the achievement of the scientists. The outstanding event of those years was the safe launching of embryonic stem cell research.The debate about dismembering the HFEA is essentially about maintaining public confidence. It is not about the excellence and trustworthiness of our doctors and embryologists – if that were the issue then we would not need regulation in many walks of professional life, and the controversy surrounding the public bodies bill would fade away. It is easy for legislators, researchers and specialists to forget how sensitive the issue of embryos is, and how very concerned the public are. The most striking event during the passage of the human fertilisation and embryology bill three years ago was the protest staged by hundreds of members of the public at Westminster against the possible extension of embryo research to animal hybrids. If your name is associated with embryo research, you are the recipient of hundreds of letters about it, not always unthreatening ones. As Baroness Warnock said in her esteemed report of 1984, the public want to know that some principles are involved. It is also not to be overlooked that most of the infertility treatment in this country is private: a great deal of money HFEAの責任や専門家の数字から離れて規制を撮影は危険であり、見当違いの質問です:状態は、生殖技術を規制すべきはどのように1994年から2002年からヒト受精発生学局(HFEA)の議長でしたか

Science Weekly podcast: The human era, and war without tears Geologist Jan Zalasiewicz from the University of Leicester explains his idea that humans may have changed the planet so much since the industrial revolution we've started a whole new geological era.Science writer Carl Zimmer asks this week's Hannaford question: the question he would most like answered by science.We also hear from the author of Mind Wars, philosopher Jonathan Moreno at the University of Pennsylvania about the ethical implications of using neuroscience in security activities and military research. Could waterboarding be replaced with an injection of a neurochemical like oxytocin in interrogations? What would it mean if soldiers were to have their ability to form emotional memories blocked before going into battle to minimise the psychological after-effects of combat? How do you weigh the potential to prevent a lifetime of post-traumatic stress in former soldiers against the possibility of a generation of veterans returning home without any guilt or regrets about what they might have done?Alok is joined by Guardian science correspondent Ian Sample to discuss the week's news stories including funding cuts to science research in the UK - affecting in particular British researchers' contribution to international astronomy and particle physics projects - and an unexpected problem with immune rejection in potential stem cell therapiesSubscribe for free via iTunes to ensure every episode gets delivered.

US approves new trial of embryonic stem cells US biotech company Advanced Cell Technology said Monday it was cleared by the government to start its second trial using human embryonic stem cells to treat blindness, this time in older people.The trial will examine the therapy's ability to safely treat people with a condition known as dry age-related macular degeneration, the most common form of irreversible vision loss in people over age 60.There is currently no cure for the disease, which affects around 10-15 million Americans and another 10 million people in Europe, the company said. 米国のバイオテクノロジー企業アドバンストセルテクノロジーは、それが失明、安全として知られている条件を持つ人々を治療する、治療の可能性を検討され、古いpeople.The裁判で、今回の治療にヒト胚性幹細胞を使用して、2番目の試験を始めるために政府がクリアされたと発表した乾。加齢黄斑変性症は、歳以上の人々に不可逆的な視力喪失の最も一般的な形式60.There現在10-15万人のアメリカ人とヨーロッパで別の10万人に影響を及ぼす疾患の治療法はないが、同社は述べている

Stanford researchers directly turn mouse skin cells into neurons Researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine have directly transformed mouse skin cells into functional nerve cells in a laboratory dish with the application of just three genes, according to a report published online Wednesday in journal Nature.
The cells make the change without first becoming a pluripotent type of stem cell -- a step long thought to be required for cells to acquire new identities. The finding could revolutionize the future of human stem cell therapy and recast ... スタンフォード大学医学部の研究者が直接機能を神経細胞には3つの遺伝子のアプリケーションと実。皿の中では、レポートを水曜日『ネイチャー』誌に発表によると、マウスの皮膚細胞に変換している
Papal visit: Bad tripper, good trip | Editorial There are powerful arguments against Benedict XVI's visit – but the head of the Catholic church is a force that cannot be ignoredThe Vatican is no ordinary state, and the pope's trip to Britain this month will be no ordinary state visit. No other leader who comes to these shores takes time out between the official meetings and dinners to conduct a beatification, as Benedict XVI plans to do. None, probably not even the president of the United States, would expect to draw the same crowds, attract the same adulation – or stir the same resentment. It will be a big deal. The gathering storm over the cost of £10m or so to the taxpayer needs to be placed in that context. Proselytising atheists are encouraging public resentment against the expense of policing the pope's visit, and yet the same gang are inflaming these costs by suggesting that they will try to arrest him. The financial argument is a distraction, a mere veil for deeply held feelings about whether or not it is right for Whitehall to roll out the red carpet for the world's greatest theocrat.The moral case against Benedict is powerful – and persuasive. For all the admirable work against poverty that Roman Catholicism inspires around the world, the church directly aggravates the plight of vulnerable people. It rails against IVF giving children to the childless, against stem-cell research giving hope to the sick, and against the use of condoms – even as a means of preventing the spread of HIV. Its rigid views on homosexuality and the role of women are not unique in world religion, or even within Christianity, but the extent of child abuse for which its priests have been responsible has been shocking, as has its tendency to close ranks in response to the scandal. Benedict himself, an arch-conservative, has in the past がベネディクト16世の訪問に対する強力な引数が - が、カトリック教会の長は、ignoredTheバチカンすることはできません力はない普通の状態、英国、今月は通常の状態の訪問となります法王の旅です

Michael Tomasky: Hillary, Obama and the Arizona law Funny, these circumstances surrounding the administration's evident intention to file a lawsuit against Arizona over the state's new immigration law. First, Hillary Clinton made the announcement, not attorney general Eric Holder, whose department would actually be handling the matter. Second, she made it to a local television news station in Quito, Ecuador, according to this Wall Street Journal item. Third, she said it June 8, but it didn't come out until late yesterday. Strange. I don't know that there's any big conspiracy behind it. It seems reasonable that Clinton, who surely is peppered with questions about this everywhere she goes south of the border, said it down there rather than here.But why Hillary and not Holder? There's no doubt that the issue affects our relations with Latin American countries, which have pretty uniformly denounced it. And sure, it's fair to speculate that politics is a factor here. Clinton is obviously extremely well-known among Latino voters, and Holder is not. And she is popular among them. And Obama has been losing support among Latinos in the last couple of months.Before conservatives start braying, I would point out that it's scarcely unusual for administrations to make moves to placate the people who voted for them, even in the face of public opinion. George Bush did exactly this in 2001 with regard to his stem-cell research decision.Large majorities in 2001 backed government funding for stem-cell research, majorities equal to or maybe even larger than majorities that now support the Arizona law. But Christian conservatives did not. Interestingly they weren't nearly as opposed to that as Latinos are to the Arizona law: the link at the beginning of this graf will take you to a survey showing that evangelical white protestants were spli おかしい、このような状況政権の意図が明らかにアリゾナに対する状態の新しい移民法をめぐる訴訟を提出する周囲
