Human Skin Cells Converted Directly into Functional Neurons

newswise.com — “Columbia University Medical Center researchers have for the first time directly converted human skin cells into functional forebrain neurons, without the need for stem cells of any kind. The findings offer a new and potentially more direct way to produce replacement cell therapies for Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases. Such cells may prove especially useful for testing new therapeutic leads.View full resource at newswise.com

Breakthrough method of stem cell expansion

sciencedaily.com — “Researchers have discovered a laboratory method to expand adult hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) using the SALL4 gene. They have used this method to produce a more than 10,000-fold increase in HSCs derived from normal human bone marrow. Their findings define a new mechanism of stem cell self-renewal, providing a means to produce large numbers of HSCs that could be used to treat hematological malignancies and other blood disorders.View full resource at sciencedaily.com
