Gov't Creates Gene Database of Normal Human Tissues

...e organs from multiple donors. Tissue samples were harvested an average of 11 hours after death, from males and females of different ethnic groups, ranging from ages 3 months to 39 years old. The very large cDNA microarray they constructed has more than 42,000 detectors built into two chips using verified cDN...

Infants with Rare Genetic Disease Saved By Cord Blood Stem Cells

...) following child birth. Adult bone marrow must be harvested from living donors through an invasive surgical procedure. Finally, cord blood cells are less mature than adult bone marrow cells and thus do not need to perfectly match the patient's immune-related blood proteins, called antigens, said Kurtzberg. O...

Man-made wetland's effectiveness similar to natural marsh

...that point has extremely rich soil, which could be harvested and spread over a farm field. Or the wetland itself could be turned into a field again, assuming there are other wetlands nearby to take its place." The story isn't quite the same with nitrates ?a nitrogen-based compound found in fertilizer. "As a ...

New project aims to make large-scale lobster farms feasible

...ida spiny lobsters valued at about $17 million are harvested and account for 11% of the spiny lobsters on the U.S. market. Overfishing of lobster has also led to ecological problems in some areas that might be relieved through successful culture and release to the wild. The main barrier to successful commerci...

NJIT Presidential Award winner takes stem cell research another step

...renew itself through cell division. Stem cells are harvested from bone marrow, umbilical cords, the brain and spinal cord and other tissues. Adult stem cells also have a unique trait that lends them their magic: Under the right conditions, or given the proper signals, they have the ability to turn into differe...

Antibodies from plants protect against anthrax

...ie. The antibodies were then purified from leaves harvested from the infected plants and tested for their ability to protect mice against anthrax infection. The plant-produced antibodies were just as effective as the antibodies produced by human cells from immunized individuals. The antibodies can be used ei...

Placenta Is A Rich Source Of Blood Stem Cells

...ultiply readily in the laboratory, so they must be harvested from bone marrow by needle aspiration, a painful procedure, or coaxed into the blood and then collected. Both methods yield only a limited number of blood stem cells. For more than a decade, scientists have believed that blood stem cells are made on...

W.M. Keck Foundation funds study of friendly microbes

...show that intestinal bacteria allow calories to be harvested from otherwise indigestible components of the diet, such as polysaccharides. These microbes also regulate the amount of extracted energy that is stored in fat cells. The implication of these findings is that variations in the composition of gut micro...
