...Studying many diseases, especially degenerative diseases, often entails isolating cells that are not readily accessible, such as brain cells. But by deriving patient-specific iPS cells with the new technology, Hochedlinger said, researchers will be able to study the development of the disease in a lab dish...
...thinks this is funny, and he shares my question with his workers; they think it's funny too. One of them explains: "If you were happy to pay 37 rupees for a plate of bhelpuri, do you think you'd even notice an increase?"

...eyes. "Our lack of understanding of the disease process is preventing us from developing more efficient cures," says Henderson. "Because the disease is happening in the spinal cord, we don't have access to living samples of neurons undergoing the disease process. But now we have in the culture dish the very cells affected by the disease...
...have in the culture dish cells which have the same genetic makeup as do the ALS patients, and they are the very cells that are affected by the disease." said Columbia professor Christopher Henderson, referring to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), a neurodegenerative often called Lou Gehrig's Disease. "This provides us with the opportunity...to study these motor neurons derived from the ALS cells...
