Human Embryonic Stem Cell Lines Differ In Genes That Could Control Disease Susceptibility Science Daily Thu, 27 Mar 2008 8:14 PM PDT Stem cell researchers used a high resolution technique to examine the genome, or total DNA content, of a pair of human embryonic stem cell lines and found that while both lines could form neurons, the lines had differences in the numbers of certain genes that could control such things as individual traits and disease susceptibility. Self-assembled materials form mini stem cell lab PhysOrg Thu, 27 Mar 2008 11:37 AM PDT Imagine having one polymer and one small molecule that instantly assemble into a flexible but strong sac in which you can grow human stem cells, creating a sort of miniature laboratory. And that sac, if used for cell therapy, could cloak the stem cells from the human body`s immune system and biodegrade upon arriving at its destination, releasing the stem cells to do their work. Scripps Research Details Plans for Stem Cell Center San Diego Business Journal Thu, 27 Mar 2008 11:16 AM PDT Embryonic stem cell researcher Jeanne Loring will head a newly formed Center for Regenerative Medicine at The Scripps Research Institute, the nonprofit institute said March 26. Stem cell ballot words disputed The Springfield News-Leader Thu, 27 Mar 2008 1:09 AM PDT Kansas City -- The long-running controversy over human embryonic stem cell research in Missouri moved to the state appeals court Wednesday, where both sides argued over a ballot summary of a constitutional amendment that opponents of the research want to put before voters in November. Self-assembled Materials Form Mini Stem Cell Lab Science Daily Thu, 27 Mar 2008 3:13 PM PDT Researchers have discovered a new and unexpected mode of self-assembly involving a polymer (hyaluronic acid) and a small molecule (peptide amphiphiles). When brought together, the two instantly assemble into a flexible but strong sac in which the researchers can grow human stem cells, creating a sort of miniature laboratory. The sacs can survive for weeks in culture, and their membranes are ... Researchers Create Protective Sac for Growing Stem Cells HealthDay via Yahoo!
