Sarasota, Florida (PRWEB) June 18, 2013 After almost 20 years of performing regenerative treatments in the field of non surgical orthopedics, Wellington Chen, M.D., will begin conducting clinical trials for many degenerative diseases using adipose-derived stem cell therapy in Sarasota, Florida. The independent review board of the International cell medicine society is responsible for overseeing these trials. Advanced Rejuvenation will treat patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and osteoarthritis following the IRB-approved protocols.

Some biotechnology companies have grumbled about the legal challenge to their right to patent genes, arguing that taking away that right could impede innovation. But now that the US Supreme Court has ruled companies cant patent genes, the decision has been largely met with a collective shrug from the biopharmaceutical industry. Thats because the high court ruling continues to allow drug companies to patent the technologies that enable them to turn genetic research into medicines

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Scientists at the Vaccine & Gene Therapy Institute of Florida (VGTI Florida) have been awarded three new federal research grants that will further support the Institutes mission of Translating Research Into Health

KINGSTON, N.Y., June 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ –How did Monsanto become so powerful? How is such a relatively small company so influential? These are among the questions asked in “In Through the Out Door: The Cosmic Signature of Monsanto and GMOs,” an investigative feature written by Eric Francis Coppolino, editor of Planet Waves

Now that the Supreme Court has ruled that merely isolating a DNA sequence does not make it eligible to patent, the question arises, What will happen to the crucially important data accumulated by an overly broad monopoly? The answer to this question has implications for people who may have an inherited risk for breast and ovarian cancer and to the scientists who hope to use that data for life-saving decisions about cancer surgery.

Scientists have discovered and amplified an evolved adeno-associated virus (AAV) to target and deliver gene therapy to retinal cells in mice. This discovery could lead to less invasive and more precise gene therapies for retinal degeneration diseases such as retinoschisis and Lebers congenital amaurosis, as well as disease in other organs that normally couldnt be treated with gene therapy because of the lack of tissue specific drug delivery systems. This study, which was published in Science Translational Medicine and reported by TheScientist.com, is still in animal trials but has already been praised because of its potential to improve the outcome of gene therapy as well as to expand the use of gene therapy to other diseases.

Led by Shuk-mei Ho, PhD, director, the CEG supports state-of-the-art core facilities and technologies needed to conduct innovative research that focuses on how environmental agents interact with genetic and epigenetic factors to influence disease risk and outcome. This funding renewal, from the National Institutes of Health’s National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), will be dispersed in annual increments of about $1.74 million through March 31, 2018.

Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) June 16, 2013 According to a May 29, 2013 NBC News article, titled Gene Therapies for Regenerative Surgery Are Getting Closer, Says Review in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, researchers have made significant progress in the development of gene therapy techniques that can grow skin, bone and tissue for reconstructive surgery. Researchers from Padua University Hospital in Italy who conducted the review claim the potential benefits of using gene therapy in reconstructive surgery are numerous. (Go to goo.gl/kYjFa) According to the article, gene therapy may be instrumental in solving a problem that most plastic and reconstructive surgeons face, which is the lack of sufficient tissue to correct deformities that patients have in certain areas of their body
