Researchers from the Harvard Stem Cell Institute (HSCI) and Mass. General Hospital (MGH) are one step closer to reprogramming adult stem cells and making them capable of creating tissues for all parts of the body without the use of viruses or cancer-causing genes. Harvard Medical School professor Konrad A. Hochedlinger recently discovered how long adult mouse stem cells need to be exposed to reprogramming factors before they convert to a pluripotent, embryonic-like state, at which point they can be potentially used for medical treatments. According to Hochedlinger, his lab set out to unveil the mysteries of the reprogramming...
...Until we’ve figured it out, I think it would be a mistake to dry out private funds or any funds for embryonic research and nuclear transfer,” said reprogramming researcher Konrad Hochedlinger, adding that he predicted the new method would overcome those hurdles...
...first to announce success with this approach, by exposing the cells to four growth factors and nutrients. But the stem cells he generated were genetically abnormal and unstable. Building on the initial technique, Yamanaka's group, as well as those led by Rudolph Jaenisch at Whitehead and Konrad Hochedlinger at HSCI, showed that the process does indeed work-and can generate stable stem cells that go on to develop into eggs and sperm that can produce healthy mice. "It's very exciting and we look forward to all there is to do from here," says Dr. Renée Reijo...
...that signed Diana and Prince Charles into marriage in 1987, and the one that in 1990 united West and East Germany on the dotted line. President John F. Kennedy offered his to Chancellor Konrad Adenauer in 1963 so he could sign the city of Cologne's Golden Book. In the past century the Montblanc fountain pen has been on hand?and in hand?at the world's most historic moments. Created in 1906 by three residents of Hamburg, Germany, who were tired of messy inkwells, Montblanc launched its Rouge et Noir fountain pen in 1908. Two years later the trio...
