Potential stem cell therapy for Duchenne’s

By Sally Robertson, medwireNews Reporter Researchers have found that injecting aorta-derived stem cells into the hearts of dystrophin-deficient mice prevents the onset of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), raising hopes of a potential new treatment approach to prevent or reverse the condition in human Duchenne muscular dystrophy. “This is the first report of stem cell therapy yielding functional benefit in the dystrophin-deficient heart,” say Suzanne Berry (University of Illinois, Urbana, USA) and team. As reported in Stem Cells Translational Medicine, injection of wild-type aorta-derived mesoangioblasts (ADMs) containing a functional copy of the dystrophin gene, significantly improved heart function compared with deficient mice injected with saline (controls) Continue reading

Did I say rolled? I mean bounced! [Click to enselenate.] This shot from LRO shows the floor of crater Shuckburgh E, an impact crater about 9 km (~6 miles) across. Continue reading

Dorries: Left's pro-choice stance inspired by 'eugenics'

By Charles Maggs The left’s support for abortion rights stems from its historic relationship with the “eugenics movement”, controversial Tory MP Nadine Dorries has said. The outburst will cause anger on the left due to the movement’s close association with theories of racial superiority and the Nazi party. Asked why the left tends to be more sympathetic to abortion rights, Dorries told politics.co.uk: “I think it goes back to a time when the left was linked very closely to the eugenics movement and people like Marie Stopes, who didn’t even attend her own daughter’s wedding because she was marrying a man who was wearing glasses.
