Indian Doctor granted US patent on organ regeneration

...tory of sorts by winning the first patent on organ regeneration from the American patent office for his technique in successfully regenerating / repairing organs in human beings. A few weeks ago the American patent office granted him a patent on this technique. Dr. Matapurkar was able to regenerate organs like ...

Clotting Protein plays a role in nerve repair

... under control. It may be possible to improve the regeneration of myelin by targeting fibrin in people with multiple sclerosis, Strickland said. He cautioned, however, that there is not yet an effective way to target fibrin that leaks into a nervous system injury without targeting fibrin throughout the body. Sin...

Grape seed extract helps wound healing

...ls of a growth factor for new blood vessels, whose regeneration is essential to wound healing. Another effect noted was how grape seed extract promoted free radical production in the wounded area - a process thought to speed up wound healing. This is in marked contrast to the effect of grapeseed extract taken by ...

Regeneration of muscle

...pulations of adult stem cells during muscle tissue regeneration in mice. If therapeutic strategies that activate Pax7 in adult stem cells can turn them into muscle cells, effectively replenishing injured or diseased muscle tissue, there's hope of reversing the debilitating effects of progressive muscle-wasting di...

New turn in stem cell research

...ls have the potential to play an important role in regeneration of cells for therapeutic use. However, while in the process of research these are exposed to live animal cells and serum and run the risk of being infected with pathogens. This may lead to future health risks. The new research has developed an embr...

Damaged Heart Rejuvenated By Stem Cells

...hich are totipotent, may be a potential source for regeneration of heart function and form after heart attacks. These cells have a promising future in this regard. This has been explained by a research student who feels that embryonic stem cells are an emerging source for treatment of diseased hearts. However, ...

Molecule responsible for muscle repair identified

...ogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) promotes muscle regeneration and this may be targeted to treatment in cases of ...cription factor MyoD that had led to faster muscle regeneration and repair after injury. Muscle regeneration after injury is important and when this does not happ...

Researchers Gather Stem Cells From Discarded Placenta

...ous treatments in the cases of transplantation and regeneration of cells. With millions of live births every year, sourcing cells from the placenta can be relatively easier than sourcing stem cells from any other parts of the human body. Researchers feel that if the technology progresses suitably, then it might ...

Heart can repair itself after heart attack

Brain Cell Repair Loss disclosed

...should help find new opportunities to reverse this regeneration loss and speed nerve cell growth. Researcher Ben Barres, a Stanford neurobiologist, felt that they can study any disease that causes// the brain and spinal cord to degenerate multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, stroke, the list goes on and on. ...

An in-depth analysis of such events will pave way for an improved understanding regarding neurological disorders and pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the same. There is no doubt that understanding this process will lead ...
