Pluristem stem cell trial to treat muscle injury meets main goal

Posted: January 22, 2014 at 9:54 am

Pluristem Therapeutics Inc said results from its early/mid-stage clinical trial indicated its placenta-derived stem cells for the treatment of muscle injury were safe and provided evidence the cells might be effective in treating orthopedic injuries.

"Patients treated with PLX-PAD had a greater improved change of maximal voluntary muscle contraction force than the placebo group," Israel-based Pluristem said in a statement on Tuesday.

The trial was conducted at the Orthopedic Clinic of the Charite University Medical School under the auspices of the Paul-Ehrlich-Institute, Germany's health authority.

"This was a very important study not only for Pluristem but for the cell therapy industry in general," Pluristem chief executive Zami Aberman said. "Based on these results, we intend to move forward with implementing our strategy towards using PLX cells in orthopedic indications and muscle trauma."

The injured muscle studied was the gluteus medius muscle in the buttock. Total hip replacement surgery via the standard transgluteal approach necessitates injury of the gluteus medius muscle, and post-operative healing is crucial for joint stability and function.

"The study showed that PLX-PAD cells were safe and well tolerated," the statement said.

The primary efficacy endpoint of the study was the change in maximal voluntary isometric contraction force of the gluteal muscle six months after surgery.

Efficacy was shown in two groups treated with the cells, with one group receiving a 150 million cell dose displaying a 500 percent improvement over the placebo group. Patients treated with a 300 million cell dose showed a 300 percent improvement over the placebo.

An analysis of the gluteal muscle indicated an increase in muscle volume in those patients treated with PLX-PAD cells versus the placebo group.

New Stem Cell Procedure Gives Hope To Pain Sufferers

Posted: January 22, 2014 at 9:54 am

CBS Pittsburgh (con't)

Health News & Information: CBSPittsburgh.com/Health

PITTSBURGH (NewsRadio 1020 KDKA) Stem cells have been used to treat cancer patients, multiple sclerosis and other conditions. Now, a local practice, Rehabilitation and Pain Specialists, is bringing to the Pittsburgh area a non-surgical adult stem cell procedure to treat pain in patients.

Dr. Marc Adelsheimer, the CEO Of Rehabilitation and Pain Specialists, joined KDKA Radios Larry Richert and John Shumway to talk about the procedure coming to western PA called Regenexx.

Stem cells have been a controversial topic for years and have caused debate among government officials and various groups. The question people want to know is, where do the stem cells come from? Dr. Adelsheimer wants people to know, the cells that we use are your own stem cells.

He adds they are not using embryonic stem cells but ones that are already present in the patients body.

Theyre in high concentration within [your] bone marrow, we isolate them from the bone marrow and we inject them into the damaged tissue, adds Dr. Adelsheimer.

The procedure could possibly reverse some of the arthritic processes, within ones body, the doctor said. Since the procedure is non-surgical it could help people avoid, a major surgery.

Dr. Adelsheimer says the reason stem cells can help possibly fix conditions like joint injuries, osteoarthritis and non-healing fractures is because stem cells are the cells that heal the body and can turn it any other cell. says Dr. Adelsheimer.

Stem Cell Therapies for Celiac Disease and IBD Now Offered in the United States

Posted: January 22, 2014 at 9:53 am

Tampa, FL (PRWEB) January 21, 2014

Regenerative Medicine Solutions (RMS), a global provider of stem cell treatments for degenerative diseases, is now offering Regenerative ColoTherapy (RCT), a proprietary stem cell treatment for people suffering with celiac and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Crohns disease and ulcerative colitis (UC) are two of the most notable conditions that fall under the IBD umbrella, affecting millions of people across the United States and the world.

It is estimated that there are 1.4 million cases of Crohns and colitis in the United States, which roughly translates to the population size of Philadelphia. Although Crohns, colitis, and celiac disease are very different conditions, affecting different areas of the intestines, treatment options are similar and mainly consist of diet modification, anti-inflammatories, and immunosuppressants.

In severe cases, sufferers use the restroom over 20 times a day and may require surgery to remove part of their intestine or colon. As you can imagine, symptoms of these disorders take a heavy toll on sufferers quality of life. Andrew, a 26-year-old RMS patient that suffers from ulcerative colitis underwent the Regenerative ColoTherapy.

For three years, I suffered from diarrhea, bleeding, painful stomach cramping, and being completely drained of energy, Andrew said. 90 days following the RCT procedure, I noticed considerable improvements in my symptoms. My bowel movements went from upwards of 20 times a day to less than five. This procedure was invaluable and in my opinion the best option for treating this disease.

As stem cells have the ability to differentiate into many different types of tissues and have been found to be immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory in nature, their intrinsic healing capacity is highly beneficial for sufferers of celiac disease and IBD. RMS has harnessed the natural properties of stem cells in the form of Regenerative ColoTherapy, a unique stem cell treatment that utilizes stem cells from a patients own body for the regeneration and repair of damaged tissues in the intestines and colon.

Regenerative ColoTherapy treatments are being performed RMSs headquarters in Tampa, FL where it also operates its subsidiary company Lung Institute. To learn more about RCT or to schedule a free consultation call today at 1-855-469-5864.

Stem cell industry ready to liftoff

Posted: January 22, 2014 at 9:43 am

By Gu Yang

According to statistics, up to August 1st, 2013, clinical trials on stem cell research publicly registered on the website of Clinical Trial have reached 4704, among which 213 were from China. Though it is far from 2805 of the US, Xu Xiaochun, the director of INCOSC and founder of Boya Life, insists that gap between China and developed countries in stem cell research field is not big -- "we are almost starting at the same time, since the key technology of stem cell has just got breakthrough in recent two or three years, and the development history of the whole industry is just 20 years."

"This is an original contribution in science which is most likely to be accomplished by China!" Xu Xiaochun stated briefly. The next few years will be the critical period for the development of global stem cell industry, and China is not to miss this valuable but fleeting opportunity.

A "gold mine" of USD400 billion is to be discovered

Who will be the next Microsoft? Even Gates himself admits that this company will surely come from the field of biological medicine, and it has been a consensus in the industry that stem cell industry is one of the cores and the most promising modules in the field of biological medicine.

In global market, stem cell technology and its development has been crazily pursued by international capital market in recent years, and relevant market value of stem cell concept stocks listed in NASDAQ only has exceeded USD30 billion. It is predicted by experts that the potential market of global stem cell industry will be about USD80 billion within the next two years, and reach up to USD400 billion around 2020.

In China, the stem cell industry also has bright prospects. According to the research reports from the institution named First Capital, the stem cell industry of China has formed a complete industry chain from the upstream storage to the downstream clinical application, and it is predicted that the income of stem cell industry in the coming 5 years will increase to RMB 30 billion from the current RMB 2 billion, at the average annual growth rate of 170 percent.

For many people, the stem cell, with the ability to repair and generate all human cells, has not been a strange concept. However, there are still some widespread misunderstandings in society about the cognition of stem cells in clinical application.

"Stem cell application doesn't only mean the storage of stem cells, but it has many downstream applications. Moreover, stem cells can also be used as a tool for new medicine research and development as well as other personalized medicine." Xu Xiaochun told the journalist that, Boya Life, founded by him, is such a group starting from stem cell research, turns the view to the whole field of biological economy while constantly extending upstream and downstream on the industry chain.

How saving their baby teeth could help save children’s lives

Posted: January 22, 2014 at 9:41 am

Yorkshire (PRWEB UK) 21 January 2014

Ongoing worldwide research is consistently proving that stem cells will be a cornerstone of medical treatments in the future. Already, literally thousands of stem cell therapies for a host of dangerous and life-threatening conditions have already been successfully performed, and specialists agree that many newly discovered treatments are just around the corner.

Stem cells are biological cell types found in multicellular organisms like mammals, and that, of course, includes us. The incredible thing about stem cells is that they are able to divide and change into other types of cell, and this is what gives them their unique ability to repair, or even replace, cells that have been damaged by disease or injury.

The potential for the health of younger and future generations is enormous.

Although stem cells are found in many different parts of our body, it is the stem cells found in our childrens teeth that are most precious in terms of their potential to safeguard health. While an inevitable crystallisation process makes adult teeth useless for stem cell therapies, first teeth and young wisdom teeth contain tooth pulp in perfect condition to provide useable stem cells. Whats more, children naturally lose 12 milk teeth over a 5-year period, and this means plenty of chances to collect the teeth most likely to be suitable for harvesting stem cells. The other big advantage of childrens teeth is that they fall out naturally, and that makes recovering the teeth a pain-free, risk-free and non-invasive process.

Today, scientists have the expertise and technologies to safely extract and store stem cells taken from baby teeth and wisdom teeth. Crucially, storing a persons stem cells for possible use in their own future medical treatment means that compatibility or finding the right match wont ever be an issue. This is one of the key factors that has given rise to people storing their own childrens cells as a way of protecting them against a future illnesses or conditions. Having access to a childs stem cells makes any future treatment far more likely to succeed, an extremely encouraging situation given that scientists are regularly discovering more and more conditions they can treat using stem cells.

So, what about the specific illnesses and conditions that tooth stem cells can be used to treat?

Scientists already know that stem cells within tooth pulp have the ability to develop into a wide range of tissues, including skin, nerve, muscle, fat, cartilage and tendon. This amazing versatility has huge and positive implications for medical uses of tooth stem cells, and thats why almost everyone has a vested interest in this medical breakthrough, from young adults, parents and expectant parents right through to those who might one day want a family.

Stem cell therapy has already enabled practitioners to grow skin, tracheas and corneas, as well as repair human hearts. Even more excitingly, it is now widely agreed that future stem cell therapies will allow medical practitioners to tackle a host of injuries, illnesses and heredity conditions. Among them, these are likely to include Type 1 diabetes; neuronal degenerative disorders like Alzheimers, Parkinsons and Huntingtons disease; cardiovascular disease; paralysis due to spinal cord injury; liver disease, strokes; heart attacks and joint repair. Stem cells can also help to repair the bodys immune system and, under the right conditions, can even be used to form organs, bone and other tissue.

BioEden have a UK team that has been right at the very heart of the science surrounding the extraction and storage of tooth cells in fact they are one of the worlds leading authorities on it.
