Snorting stem cells: new therapy delivery method envisioned
Posted on 2009-08-13 13:29:09 in Brain and Mental Performance | Drug Delivery Technology | Gene Therapy | Longevity and Age Management | Parkinsons Disease | Stem Cell Research | Stem Cell Research |
For brain disease patients of the future, the delivery of stem cell therapy may be as simple as a quick sniff. William Frey, an adjunct professor of pharmaceutics and University of Minnesota researcher in collaboration with principal investigator Lusine Danielyan of the University Hospital of Tuebingen, Germany and his colleagues have shown that when stem are suspended in a fluid and snorted, they travel rapidly to the brain and arrive intact.

This Week's Anti-Aging Video Feature: Zannos Grekos, MD: Stem Cell Research
Posted on 2009-07-01 15:43:43 in Cellular Reprogramming | Gene Therapy | Genetic Engineering | Longevity and Age Management | Regenerative Medicine | Stem Cell Research | Stem Cell Research |
Dr Zannos Grekos MD delivers a presentation in Washington DC about stem cell research. Stem cells are being used for the regeneration of tissue and organs. He highlights the advantages and disadvantages of each type of stem cell, from embryonic to cord, to adult stem cells. The basic features of stem cells are that they are able to self renew and also differentiate into effecter cells. This means that they can be educated to regenerate the specific organ that needs treatment.
