...Biochemistry in Martinsried near Munich, Germany, have now deciphered the mechanism that illustrates how these mobile s move on diverse surfaces. "Similar to a car, these s have an engine, a clutch and wheels which provide the necessary friction" explains Michael Sixt, a research group leader at the MP of Biochemistry...
...Anna said: "This disease is a common cause of blindness worldwide, especially in young patients, and as such, it is important to carry out research into the underlying genetics of the disease so that in the future a gene therapy can be found." She said she hoped the win would inspire other medical students 'slaving away with lab research'. Source The Royal Society of Medicine
...Commenting on the results of the study, Professor Madeddu said: "We are excited by these latest results using the CTX stem cell line, where we have successfully replicated, in a dose-dependent way, the results of a promising initial study in a recognised hind limb ischaemia model. We see real clinical potential in this cell line in ischaemia, where the angiogenic properties of the cell line appear to play a significant role in restoring blood flow in the affected region."
"The finding is essential for understanding the causes of progressive loss of brain cells, characteristic of this disease" said Alessandra d'Azzo, Ph D , of St. Jude Genetics and Tumor Cell Biology...
