Researchers have found a way, in mice and human tissue, to regenerate the cartilage that eases movement between bones.

Loss of this slippery and shock-absorbing tissue layer, called articular cartilage, is responsible for many cases of joint pain and arthritis, which afflicts more than 55 million Americans.

The researchers can envision a time when people are able to avoid getting arthritis in the first place by rejuvenating their cartilage before it is badly degraded.

Nearly 1 in 4 adult Americans suffer from arthritis, and far more are burdened by joint pain and inflammation generally.

The researchers figured out how to regrow articular cartilage by first causing slight injury to the joint tissue, then using chemical signals to steer the growth of skeletal stem cells as the injuries heal.

Cartilage has practically zero regenerative potential in adulthood, so once its injured or gone, what we can do for patients has been very limited, says co-senior author Charles K.F. Chan, assistant professor of surgery at Stanford Universitys School of Medicine.

Its extremely gratifying to find a way to help the body regrow this important tissue, Chan says.

The work builds on previous research that resulted in isolation of the skeletal stem cell, a self-renewing cell that is also responsible for the production of bone, cartilage and a special type of cell that helps blood cells develop in bone marrow.

Articular cartilage is a complex and specialized tissue that provides a slick and bouncy cushion between bones at the joints. When this cartilage is damaged by trauma, disease, or simply thins with age, bones can rub directly against each other, causing pain and inflammation, which can eventually result in arthritis.

Damaged cartilage can be treated through a technique called microfracture, in which tiny holes are drilled in the surface of a joint. The microfracture technique prompts the body to create new tissue in the joint, but the new tissue is not much like cartilage.

I realized the only way to understand the process was to look at what stem cells are doing after microfracture.

Microfracture results in what is called fibrocartilage, which is really more like scar tissue than natural cartilage, says Chan. It covers the bone and is better than nothing, but it doesnt have the bounce and elasticity of natural cartilage, and it tends to degrade relatively quickly.

The most recent research arose, in part, through the work of surgeon and lead author Matthew Murphy, a visiting researcher at Stanford who is now at the University of Manchester.

I never felt anyone really understood how microfracture really worked, Murphy says. I realized the only way to understand the process was to look at what stem cells are doing after microfracture.

For a long time, Chan says, people assumed that adult cartilage did not regenerate after injury because the tissue did not have many skeletal stem cells that could be activated. Working in a mouse model, the team documented that microfracture did activate skeletal stem cells. Left to their own devices, however, those activated skeletal stem cells regenerated fibrocartilage in the joint.

But what if the healing process after microfracture could be steered toward development of cartilage and away from fibrocartilage?

The researchers knew that as bone develops, cells must first go through a cartilage stage before turning into bone. They had the idea that they might encourage the skeletal stem cells in the joint to start along a path toward becoming bone, but stop the process at the cartilage stage.

The researchers used a powerful molecule called bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) to initiate bone formation after microfracture, but then stopped the process midway with a molecule that blocked another signaling molecule important in bone formation, called vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

What we ended up with was cartilage that is made of the same sort of cells as natural cartilage with comparable mechanical properties, unlike the fibrocartilage that we usually get, Chan says. It also restored mobility to osteoarthritic mice and significantly reduced their pain.

As a proof of principle that this might also work in humans, the researchers transferred human tissue into mice that were bred to not reject the tissue, and were able to show that human skeletal stem cells could be steered toward bone development but stopped at the cartilage stage.

The next stage of research is to conduct similar experiments in larger animals before starting human clinical trials. Murphy points out that because of the difficulty in working with very small mouse joints, there might be some improvements to the system they could make as they move into relatively larger joints.

The first human clinical trials might be for people who have arthritis in their fingers and toes. We might start with small joints, and if that works we would move up to larger joints like knees, Murphy says.

Right now, one of the most common surgeries for arthritis in the fingers is to have the bone at the base of the thumb taken out. In such cases we might try this to save the joint, and if it doesnt work we just take out the bone as we would have anyway. Theres a big potential for improvement, and the downside is that we would be back to where we were before.

One advantage of their discovery is that the main components of a potential therapy are approved as safe and effective by the FDA, says co-senior author Michael Longaker, professor of surgery.

BMP2 has already been approved for helping bone heal, and VEGF inhibitors are already used as anti-cancer therapies, he says. This would help speed the approval of any therapy we develop.

Joint replacement surgery has revolutionized how doctors treat arthritis and is very common: By age 80, 1 in 10 people will have a hip replacement and 1 in 20 will have a knee replaced. But such joint replacement is extremely invasive, has a limited lifespan and is performed only after arthritis hits and patients endure lasting pain.

The researchers say they can envision a time when people are able to avoid getting arthritis in the first place by rejuvenating their cartilage in their joints before it is badly degraded.

One idea is to follow a Jiffy Lube model of cartilage replenishment, Longaker says. You dont wait for damage to accumulateyou go in periodically and use this technique to boost your articular cartilage before you have a problem.

The work appears in the journal Nature Medicine.

Method regrows cartilage to cushion bones - Futurity: Research News

A study published in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention suggested that among survivors of childhood abdominal or pelvic tumors, abdominal or pelvic radiotherapy is associated with body composition changes that can adversely influence metabolic outcomes and performance status.1

The impacts of radiation therapy on metabolic health have previously been reported for survivors of pediatric leukemia, brain tumors, and hematopoietic stem cell transplants, according to Carmen Wilson, PhD, assistant member in the Epidemiology and Cancer Control department at St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital, though the impacts on survivors of pediatric abdominal and pelvic tumors were unclear.2

Body composition abnormalities and cardiometabolic impairments are of concern among survivors given that in the general population, these conditions increase the risk of developing life-threatening diseases including cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, Wilson said in a press release.

In total, the study cohort included 431 survivors of abdominal or pelvic tumors. Relative lean mass and fat mass were assessed in participants using dual X-ray absorptiometry and metabolic outcomes, including insulin resistance, high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, and triglycerides, were based on laboratory values and medication usage.

Lean mass was found to be lower than values from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) in both males (Z-score = -0.67 1.27; P < .001) and females (Z-score = -0.72 1.28; P < .001). Higher cumulative abdominal and pelvic radiation doses were also associated with lower lean mass among males (abdominal: b = -0.22 [SE] 0.07; P = .002 and pelvic: b = -0.23 0.07; P = .002) and females (abdominal: b = -0.30 0.09; P = .001 and pelvic: b = -0.16 0.08; P = .037).

Collectively, ours and others data suggest that survivors may be at risk of developing diabetes through multiple pathways, either from direct damage to the pancreas following radiotherapy, and following [insulin resistance] as a result of alterations in function and secretions of adipocytes and from increased adiposity, the authors explained.

Moreover, the prevalence of insulin resistance (40.6% vs. 33.8%; P = .006), low HDL (28.9% vs. 33.5%; P = .046), and high triglycerides (18.4% vs. 10.0%; P < .001) was increased among survivors relative to NHANES. Compared with survivors with normal to high lean mass and normal to low fat mass, those with normal to high lean mass and high fat mass had an increased risk of insulin resistance (P < .001), low HDL (P < .001), reduced quadriceps strength at 60 per second (P < .001) and 300 per second (P < .001), and reduced distance covered in a 6-minute walk (P < .01).

High adiposity and associated reductions in strength, mobility, and flexibility among survivors are of concern because these measures are markers of physical fitness; higher levels of fitness are associated with decreased risk of cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in the general population, the authors noted.

Notably, given that the researchers used data from NHANES for comparisons of prevalence, differences in the measurement of cardiometabolic outcomes among the survivor cohort and NHANES may have adversely influenced comparisons of prevalence. Even further, though the investigators were unable to examine the influence of abdominal or pelvic surgeries on functional performance among survivors, survivors with serious, severe, or disabling chronic musculoskeletal and neurologic conditions were excluded from analyses.

Moving forward, though it may not be possible to avoid radiotherapy as a key treatment for many solid tumors, the researchers suggested that further research is required to evaluate whether interventions in both child- and adulthood could meliorate abnormalities in body composition and cardiometabolic impairments. In addition, Wilson suggested she is interested in exploring how interventions directed at lifestyle behaviors could improve lean mass and decrease fat mass among survivors of pediatric cancers.

While it may not be possible to avoid radiation therapy as a key treatment for many solid tumors, early research suggests that resistance training interventions in survivors increase lean mass, said Wilson. Further work is needed to see if training would also impact cardiometabolic impairments in this population.

MIKE TYSON has revealed he was injected with nearly-translucent blood in his bid to make a comeback... and the former heavyweight champ said it made him feel "weird".

The 54-year-old - who initially retired from boxing in 2005 - will fight Roy Jones Jr in November in his eagerly-anticipated comeback fight.

2

His return to action has been aided by stem-cell research therapy, which has left him feeling like a "different person".

In May, Tyson claimed: "You know what I had done? I had stem-cell research therapy.

"I feel like a different person but I can't comprehend why I feel this way.

"It's really wild what scientists can do."

Stem-cell therapy is the use of stem cells to treat or prevent a disease or condition that usually takes the form of a bone marrow transplantation.

Tyson opened up on the effects the treatment has had on him in an recent interview with rapper LL Cool J on the Rock the Bells Radio show on SiriusXM, earlier in 2020.

Commenting on the mental aspect of training for a fight for the first time in 15 years, he said: "My mind wouldnt belong to me.

"My mind would belong to somebody that disliked me enough to break my soul, and I would give them my mind for that period of time.

"Six weeks of this and Id be in the best shape Ive ever dreamed of being in. As a matter of fact, Im going through that process right now. And you know what else I did, I did stem-cell research."

Tyson was then asked whether that meant if his white blood had been spun and then put back in, to which he replied: "Yes. As they took the blood it was red and when it came back it was almost transfluid (sic).

"I could almost see through the blood, and then they injected it in me.

"And Ive been weird ever since, Ive got to get balanced now."

WHAT IS STEM CELL TREATMENT USED FOR?

Stem cell transplants are carried out when bone marrow is damaged or isnt able to produce healthy blood cells.

It can also be used to replace damaged blood cells as the result of intensive cancer treatment.

Here are conditions that stem cell transplants can be used to treat:

Iron Mike had been called out by former rival Evander Holyfield to complete their trilogy following their two meetings in 1990s.

But he has since looked elsewhere, taking on Jones Jr later this year - potentially in front of a packed house.

Tyson is looking in incredible condition, too as he continues this hard graft.

Global Cell Isolation Technology Market 2020 Analysis, Types, Applications, Forecast and COVID-19 Impact Analysis 2025 - Scientect

A California woman may be the first person to be cured of HIV without a bone marrow transplant, according to a recent report in Nature. More than 60 other so-called elite controllers, who have unusually potent immune responses to HIV, were found to have their virus sequestered in parts of their genome where it is unable to replicate.

The unusual case involves Loreen Willenberg, who acquired HIV in 1992. Her immune system has maintained control of the virus for decades without the use of antiretroviral treatment, and researchers have been unable to find any intact virus in more than 1.5 billion of her cells. Elite controllers are thought to make up less than half a percent of all people living with HIV.

I believe Loreen might indeed meet anyones definition of a cure, study coauthor Steven Deeks, MD, of the University of California at San Francisco, told POZ. Despite heroic efforts, we just could not find any virus that is able to replicate. Her immune system seems completely normal. Even her HIV antibodies levels are low, which is unprecedented in an untreated person.

Although antiretroviral therapy can keep HIV replication suppressed, the virus inserts its genetic material into the chromosomes of human cells, making it very difficult to eradicate. HIV can lie dormant in a reservoir of resting immune cells indefinitely, but when antiretrovirals are stopped and the cells become activated, they can start churning out new virus.

Previously, only two people were known to have been cured of HIV: Timothy Ray Brown, formerly know as the Berlin Patient, and a man in London. Both received bone marrow stem cell transplants from a donor with a rare genetic mutation that makes cells resistant to HIV entry. But this procedure is far too dangerous for people who dont need it to treat advanced cancer.

The new research suggests that Willenberg and some five dozen other people with long-term untreated HIV have their virus hidden away in their cells genomes in such as way that the viral genetic blueprint (known as a provirus) cant be used to produce new viral particles that can go on to infect other cells.

Xu Yu, MD, of the Ragon Institute of Massachusetts General Hospital, MIT and Harvard analyzed integrated HIV in millions of cells from 64 elite controllers and 41 typical HIV-positive people on antiretroviral therapy recruited at Mass General and San Francisco General Hospital.

In both groups, about 20% were women, the average age was approximately 56, they had been living with HIV for an average of 17 years and had undetectable virus according to standard tests for nine years. Overall, the elite controllers had a higher average CD4 count (about 900 versus 70, respectively).

The researchers used next-generation gene sequencing to characterize the participants viral blueprints, including where they were inserted into human chromosomes. They found that the elite controllers had fewer integrated proviruses, but a larger proportion of them were intact, or potentially capable of replicating. The virus in these individuals was highly consistent, without the wide variety of mutations seen in most people with HIV.

Whats more, their proviruses were integrated at distinct sites in the human genome, farther away from elements that enable viral replication. Specifically, the integrated DNA was not located near sites that switch on transcription or close to accessible chromatin, which contains histone proteins that package long DNA strands into a more compact form. The DNA must then be unwound from these proteins before it can be used to produce new virus.

These data suggest that a distinct configuration of the proviral reservoir represents a structural correlate of natural viral control, and that the quality, rather than the quantity, of viral reservoirs can be an important distinguishing feature for a functional cure of HIV-1 infection, Yu and colleagues wrote.

In a commentary accompanying the report, Nicolas Chomont, PhD, of the University of Montreal, characterized the proviruses in these elite controllers as being in a state of deep sleep compared with latent virus in typical people with HIV. This has only become apparent now because researchers have more sophisticated tools to pinpoint the location of proviruses within the genome.

It is unclear why this block and lock phenomenon happens in only a small proportion of people with HIV. Its possible that the virus ends up sequestered in these locations by chance. But the researchers think its more likely that the integrated proviruses at these sites are evolutionarily selected over time as the ones in locations more conducive to viral replication are eliminated by the immune system.

In Willenbergs case, the research team analyzed more than 1.5billion of her peripheral blood immune cells, including samples from gut tissue, where the virus often hides. Theycould not find any intact proviruses that could be used to produce new HIV. Given her absence of intact proviruses, the researcherswere unable to determine whether she ever fit the pattern of having latent HIV locked away in inaccessible locations.

Another 11 people, dubbed exceptional controllers, only had detectableprovirusesatremote sites in the genome where it could not replicate.Since this study, the researchers have discovered a couple more elite controllers who may qualify as additional cures, according to the New York Times.

This raises the possibility that a sterilizing cure of HIVmeaning complete eradicationmay be feasible in rare instances, the study authors suggested. A similar but less complete process may be at play in the subset of about 10% of people with HIV who maintain viral suppression after stopping antiretroviral therapy but who still have detectable proviruses (known as post-treatment controllers).

This research was first presented at the International AIDS Society Conference on HIV Science last summer, where Willenberg was referred to as the San Francisco Patient. Willenberg later went public with her status, and she and Yu discussed the study findings during a webinar with HIV cure advocates last November.

I broke out in tears when saw Dr. Yus final slide, said Willenberg, who over the years has participated in more than a dozen studies. I can only hope and pray that with continued dedication we can figure out how I have dumped the virus into the DNA junkyard.

The question now is whether its possible to develop treatments that could enable the millions of typical people with progressive HIV to become elite controllers like Willenberg. Chomont suggested that immune-based therapiesincluding CAR-T cellsmight be able to shrink the viral reservoir until it consists only of deeply latent proviruses that are unable to replicate.

The key question is how did her immune system achieve this remarkable state, Deeks said. We do not know. We need to find more people who are exceptional controllers like Loreen and get to work on figuring out the mechanism.

First Woman May Be Cured of HIV Without a Bone Marrow Transplant - POZ

NEW YORK, Aug. 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --The GlobalSterile Filtration Marketis expected to reach USD 8.48 Billion by 2027, according to a new report by Reports and Data. Sterile filtration finds usage in the removal of contaminants and particulates from fluids comprising media with or without buffers, serum, reagents, biologic or proteinaceous samples, or other types of fluids. Filtration through a pore size of 0.2 m is essential to get a sterile filtrate by filtering particles and germs from fluids (liquids and gases) to prevent them from contaminating the end-products. As per the GMP guidelines and the guidelines by the (FDA), producers are required to perform a filter integrity test at the pre and post-production cycle. The test confirms that the filter is completely functional and that no undesirable components got through it.

Biopharmaceuticals products normally cannot be terminally sterilized, and thus it is crucial to use sterile grade filters in aseptic processing. Application of heat sterilization or any other process in biopharmaceutical drug products results in unwanted degradation of the product. Sterilizing membrane filtration frequently necessitated reducing the levels of bioburden within process streams to prevent the potential formation of biofilm. Further, to ascertain that the sterile filtered products uphold the pure form, a growing number of firms, especially the firms in the pharmaceutical sector, are deploying disposable process solutions to store or process the subsequent filtrate.

The growing use of sterile filtration in the food & beverage industry, especially in breweries, is playing an instrumental role in driving market growth. Recent researches uphold the use of sterile filtration as the most appropriate method for brewers for controlling microbial hazards. Even though beer is alcoholic, acidic, anaerobic, and comprises hop compounds that ply the role of preservatives, certain microorganisms can survive in the chemical environment and thrive on rich nutrients present in beer. These kinds of microorganisms may result in beer spoilage forming a haze or sedimentation, a rancid/sour flavor, and over-carbonation, thus requiring the need for sterile filtration.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

As global economies are experiencing the negative impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, organizations are suffering losses, among various other challenges. Nevertheless, firms in the pharmaceutical industry are of immense importance in combatting the pandemic and are witnessing positive growth in the contagious disease landscape with the race for treatment approval therapy gaining momentum.

Biopharmaceutical companies are playing a significant role in human response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Various leading biotech companies are studying the genome to prepare a feasible vaccine for its treatment. Growing investments in R&D activities for making the vaccine are fuelling the growth of the sterile filtration market.
