New mouse stem cell is just like ours

The discovery of a mouse embryonic stem cell that is a near-perfect match to human cells may speed research in new treatments for injury and disease.
Taking cells from mouse embryos at later stages--epiblasts instead of blastomeres--seems to prevent them from developing the traits that make them so very different from human cell lines. This has many scientists pondering the evolutionary differences between humans and mice, but the real kicker seems to be that primate stem cell lines are much more difficult to culture than lines made from other species 
When the past catches up with the present

Oversight committees face tough decisions after an analysis questions whether certain cell lines meet standards of informed consent. If not, then the number of stem cell lines that U.S. scientists may study with federal funding may drop from twenty-one to sixteen.
Induced stem cell lines may soon be available from Harvard

A few weeks ago, we talked about how researchers had been able to take a cell from an ALS patient and develop a working, research-quality pluripotent cell line. Well the next step has been taken.
I've been saying that induced pluripotent stem cells might become the preferred research model (over embryonic stem cells), but only if they became easier to obtain than embryonic stem cells. It looks as though that might happen soon. The Harvard Stem Cell Institute is dedicating an iPS core lab
Consent issues restrict stem-cell use and research

Some researchers in Stanford University are told that around one-quarter of the human embryonic stem-cell lines eligible for U.S. government funding are now off-limits because of ethical concerns. The university is concerned that some of the women who donated the embyros that were used to generate the line might not have been fully informed of how they would be used.
The consent forms that the women signed were retrieved and it was found that none of them met Standford's guidelines exactly and some of them were way off the mark
Harvesting stem cells at the four-cell stage can be easier and safer

Here is a Wired Science writeup of that article I posted yesterday. It's less detailed, but it's easier to read. Again, the top story is that researchers have found a new way to harvest stem cells from embryos without destroying them: taking a cell at the four-cell stage produces cell lines that don't need to be co-cultured. And we already know from fertility treatments that the remaining three cells can grow into healthy children.
Stem cells: Embryonic lines from four-cell embryos show pluripotency

A team in Barcelona has developed a human embryonic stem cell line from one cell of a four-cell blastomere. Although I doubt that particular blastomere was later implanted into a woman, we know from fertility treatments that four-celled embryos that lose one cell during the freeze-thaw process can successfully develop into children. The major accomplishment here is that these stem cell lines do not need to be co-cultured with other cells
After Stem-Cell Breakthrough, the Work Begins

After stem-cell breakthrough, the researchers have many works to perform. If stem cell researchers were oil prospectors, it could be said that they struck a gusher last week. But to realize the potential boundless riches they now must figure out how to build refineries, pipelines and gas stations.
The article tell us what we will do after the breakthrough of stem cell and the value of the technology.
US stem cell update -- Maryland
Darkfrog submitted, created time 1 year 6 months (www.nytimes.com)
The Maryland stem cell commission handed out its first grants two days ago, for facial repair and spinal cord repair. The Maryland Stem Cell Research Commission states that it hopes to bring new treatments to patients and new technology to Maryland. The fund totals $14 million.
To recap, human embryonic stem cell research is legal in the United States. What is not legal is to perform research with funds from the federal government on any human embryonic stem cell that does not come from one of the eleven stem cell lines that were established before the date of the funding ban
Effort To Develop Patient-specific Stem Cell Lines Launched
penguin submitted, created time 1 year 6 months (www.sciencedaily.com)
UC Irvine neurobiologist Hans Keirstead and his research team recently launched a project to develop stem cell lines that genetically match human patients. These lines would allow scientists to better study conditions ranging from diabetes to Parkinson’s disease, and they would provide the basis for potential patient-specific stem cell treatments.
