Poway, California (PRWEB) February 20, 2014
Four-and-a-half year old Dakota, a German Shepherd from Colorado, is managing the pain from osteoarthritis with the help of stem cell therapy thanks to Mountain Ridge Animal Hospital and Pain Management Center of Lafayette. Dakotas positive results showed almost immediately, and just a few months post stem cell therapy using Vet-Stem, Inc. services, he is doing activities that he has not done for years.
Dakota was diagnosed with hip dysplasia at just three years old, and in less than two years time his owners felt his quality of life had significantly started to deteriorate. Robert Landry, DVM at Mountain Ridge Animal Hospital and Pain Management Center has been doing regenerative cell therapy with Vet-Stem for six years, treating various types of orthopedic issues and arthritis in small animals, and determined Dakota was a good candidate for the procedure.
Dr. Landry began Dakotas procedure on a Tuesday in October by collecting a small sample of fat called the falciform fat pad, which was sent overnight to Vet-Stems lab in San Diego, California. Received the next morning, the lab processed Dakotas fat and created injectable doses of his own stem cells to be overnighted back to Dr. Landry. Thursday Dakota received his hip injections and recovery began.
Dakotas results were almost immediate, Dakotas owners expressed, He moves around with ease now and can even go up and down the stairs. Last week he jumped into the back of my SUV, which he hasn't done in years. Before the stem cell therapy Dakota never wagged his tail, and now he doesnt stop! His quality of life is so much better and he seems truly happier.
Dr. Landry and the team at Mountain Ridge Animal Hospital and Pain Management Center specialize in companion animal health care, striving to provide the highest quality in Veterinary health care and customer service. Some of their specialties are pain management, surgery, and regenerative medicine. By understanding and valuing the special role that pets play in a family Dr. Landry and team are genuine advocates for each pet's health and care.
About Vet-Stem, Inc. Vet-Stem, Inc. was formed in 2002 to bring regenerative medicine to the veterinary profession. The privately held company is working to develop therapies in veterinary medicine that apply regenerative technologies while utilizing the natural healing properties inherent in all animals. As the first company in the United States to provide an adipose-derived stem cell service to veterinarians for their patients, Vet-Stem, Inc. pioneered the use of regenerative stem cells in veterinary medicine. The company holds exclusive licenses to over 50 patents including world-wide veterinary rights for use of adipose derived stem cells.

Newswise ROCHESTER, Minn. Feb. 20, 2014 Researchers say the discovery of how sodium ions pass through the gill of a zebrafish may be a clue to understanding a key function in the human kidney. The findings from a collaboration between Mayo Clinic and the Tokyo Institute of Technology appear in the online issue of the American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology.
The researchers discovered a protein responsible for gas exchanges in the fish gill structure. Specifically they studied and characterized the Na+/H+ (sodium/hydrogen) exchanger named NHE3, responsible for controlling sodium and hydrogen ions across the gill. The researchers also directly demonstrated that NHE3 can function as a Na+/NH4+ (sodium/ammonium) exchanger.
This is significant because the fish tends to mimic the process in humans, says Michael Romero, Ph.D., a Mayo Clinic physiologist who works in nephrology. This is the true beauty of comparative physiology- a lot of the organs function by very similar processes, down to ionic transfer.
In this case the protein allows the sodium ions to be absorbed from the forming urine while at the same time discarding waste from normally functioning cells, thus keeping the body in balance and serving as an energy saving system. The researchers say the same NHE3 protein performs a similar function in the intestine, pancreas, liver, lungs and reproductive system.
The gill is used in the fish as a transport system: sodium ions are nutrients and ammonium carries away waste. Its a key process allowing zebrafish to extract sodium ions from fresh water. In humans, NHE3 is involved in the acid-waste control system in the kidney, but there hasnt been a good analysis of that process in humans. Part of this acid-control process in the human kidney is ammoniagenesis which requires the initial part of the kidney tubule (proximal tubule) to export ammonia/ammonium. Physiologically, it has been assumed that NHE3 can perform a Na+/NH4+ exchange, but this has never been experimentally demonstrated.
Ammoniagenesis and increased renal sodium bicarbonate absorption are partly under the control of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), which means that this work enhances understanding of human hypertension. Researchers say their results in fish can be a clue or starting point for analyzing the process in people. Researchers say they hope to continue their work in other species and ultimately further describe the process in humans.
The research was funded by both institutions. Co-authors include Yusuke Ito, Akira Kato, Ph.D., and Shighisa Hirose, Ph.D., all of the Tokyo Institute of Technology; and Taku Hirata, Ph.D., of Mayo Clinic. Yusuke Ito was a visiting graduate student at Mayo Clinic. Dr. Akira Kato is a visiting research collaborator with Dr. Romero at Mayo Clinic. ### About Mayo Clinic Recognizing 150 years of serving humanity in 2014, Mayo Clinic is a nonprofit worldwide leader in medical care, research and education for people from all walks of life.

New Rochelle, NY, February 20, 2014Children exhibit a range of responses to traumatic events such as natural disasters, with some suffering acute traumatic reactions that resolve over time and others experiencing long-term symptoms of post-traumatic stress. Identifying factors that may help predict which youths are at greater risk of more serious disorders and which are likely to be more resilient following a traumatic event can help determine the care and services needed, according to an article in Journal of Child and Adolescent Psychopharmacology (JCAP), a peer-reviewed journal from Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers. The article is part of a special issue on pediatric traumatic stress that is available on the JCAP website.
In the article "Resilience and Trajectories of Post-traumatic Stress Among Youth Exposed to Disaster," Carl Weems, PhD and Rebecca Graham, University of New Orleans, LA, compare post-traumatic stress (PTS) symptoms among children exposed to both hurricanes Katrina and Gustav and describe the different risk factors and coping styles associated with resiliency to PTS.
Guest Editors Judith Cohen, MD, Drexel University, Philadelphia, PA, and Michael Scheeringa, MD, Tulane University, New Orleans, LA, emphasize the importance of recognizing the similarities and differences in how children and adults react to traumatic events, and the effect that family dynamics and caregivers can have on treatment strategies and their outcomes in the Journal's Editorial.
In another article, authors Richard Meiser-Stedman, PhD, et al., MRC Cognition & Brain Sciences Unit, Cambridge, U.K., and King's College and King's College Hospital, London, caution against using certain cognitive strategies aimed at blocking trauma-related memories in adults and adolescents in the article entitled "Thought Control Strategies and Rumination in Youth with Acute Stress Disorder and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Following Single-Event Trauma."
In "Perceived Parenting Change and Child Posttraumatic Stress Following a Natural Disaster," Vanessa Cobham, PhD and Brett McDermott, MD, University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia, identify a link between specific parenting practices and increased risk for PTS symptoms among the children in a household following a natural disaster.
Harold S. Koplewicz, MD, Editor-in-Chief of JCAP, and President, Child Mind Institute, New York, NY, states that there is a "palpable shift in the profession towards considering even sub-threshold PTS symptoms a worthy target of intervention in kids who have experienced a possible traumatic event, such as natural disaster or violence. Even children who do not meet specific criteria in terms of how they response to trauma may warrant careand this care can be helpful. This work is of particular importance in light of recent school shootings and natural disasters."

New Rochelle, NY, February 19, 2014Joseph C. Glorioso, III, PhD (University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, PA) devoted much of his research career to developing herpes viruses as efficient vectors for delivering therapeutic genes into cells. In recognition of his leadership and accomplishments, he has received a Pioneer Award from Human Gene Therapy, a peer-reviewed journal from Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers. Human Gene Therapy is commemorating its 25th anniversary by bestowing this honor on the leading 12 Pioneers in the field of cell and gene therapy selected by a blue ribbon panel* and publishing a Pioneer Perspective by each of the award recipients. The Perspective by Dr. Glorioso is available on the Human Gene Therapy website.
As he recounts in his essay "Herpes Simplex Viral Vectors: Late Bloomers with Big Potential," it took 30 years to create broadly applicable HSV vector designs and a useful gene delivery platform. Since herpes simplex virus has a natural affinity for the nervous system, Dr. Glorioso believes that "gene delivery to the brain represents the most important frontier for HSV-mediated gene therapy and provides a unique opportunity to study complex processes such as learning and memory and to treat complex genetic and acquired diseases, including brain degeneration, epilepsy, and cancer."
In addition, says Dr. Glorioso, some herpes viral delivery systems are proving useful for gene transfer in the emerging field of cellular reprogramming to produce stem cells for tissue regeneration.
"Joe began his work in gene therapy early in the development of the field focusing on the very challenging objective of targeting the central nervous system. His work with HSV vectors represents an incredibly elegant blending of basic virology and translational science," says James M. Wilson, MD, PhD, Editor-in-Chief of Human Gene Therapy, and Director of the Gene Therapy Program, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine, Philadelphia.

*The blue ribbon panel of leaders in cell and gene therapy, led by Chair Mary Collins, PhD, MRC Centre for Medical Molecular Virology, University College London selected the Pioneer Award recipients. The Award Selection Committee selected scientists that had devoted much of their careers to cell and gene therapy research and had made a seminal contribution to the field--defined as a basic science or clinical advance that greatly influenced progress in translational research.

VELMA In a matchup more fitting for the area final, the No. 5 Sterling girls will face No. 16 Velma-Alma in the first round of the regional tournament on Thursday.
The game is high risk, high reward. If the Lady Comets (18-4) can make it past the Lady Tigers (22-3), they would have a great opportunity to make it to the state tournament.
With such a tough draw, coach Kenny Bare is focused on this game and how the Lady Comets can pull the upset.
Were going to show up, play and do the best we can, Bare said. Sterlings got good athletes, size, quickness, good shooters and a really good coach.
Velma-Alma counters that with a 14-game winning streak and home-court advantage. Part of why they have been able to build that streak has been the teams speed in transition. They can compete with the Sterling in that area of the game, but the size is another story.
The Lady Comets will be going up against much taller opponents, and that has been hard for Bare to gameplan against.
Weve practiced against our junior high boys, and they have some size, Bare said. Hopefully that will help us, but you cant make your second team girls be big and tall for practice purposes.
If the Comets can push their win streak to 15, it will be a while before they are tested at the same level again. In the regional final they would play either Blair or Alex.
Blair (17-5) on paper would look to be the toughest task, but it barely escaped district after being picked by Hollis to play in the first round. They beat Hollis and Navajo, which both have losing records, by a combined seven points.
Alexs (11-10) resume isnt much more impressive. Though it beat Macomb 62-24 to win its district, it lost seven out of its last 10 games before entering the playoffs, a contradiction from the surging Comets.

February 19, 2014 - Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) Missouri Comets INDEPENDENCE, Missouri (February 19, 2014) - The Missouri Comets were active as the deadline for making roster changes approached. Prior to the 2013-2014 Roster Freeze deadline at 4:00p.m. CT, the Comets added three players to the roster and placed one on Injured Reserve.
Missouri added players to both ends of the field, signing defender Alain Matingou from Park University, goalkeeper Brendan Allen from Baker University and trading for forward Max Touloute from the Pennsylvania Roar. All three players are expected to be available for Saturday's match against the St. Louis Ambush.
Matingou, originally from Paris, France, played four years at Park University. A stout defender for the Pirates, he became a starter in his freshman year. In 2010 he led a defense that carried Park University to a first-place finish in the AMC Regular Season and earned 2010 AMC 1st Team All-Conference Honors.
Allen began training with the Comets after graduating from Baker University. In his senior year with the Wildcats, Allen played nine games and turned in three clean sheets. He is originally from Kansas City, MO and graduated from Park Hill South High School.
Max Touloute joined the Roar in January of this season. In the five games he played with Pennsylvania, Touloute tallied 16 points and seven goals. In 2012 he played seven games with the Wichita Wings in a reserve role. Pennsylvania will receive financial considerations from Missouri in the trade.
In other roster moves, defender Coady Andrews was placed on Injured Reserve today. Andrews suffered a broken ankle during training February 11th. He is expected to make a full recovery in 6-10 weeks.
The Comets will play their final regular season home game Saturday against cross-state rivals, the St. Louis Ambush. Game time is scheduled for 7:35p.m. CT at the Independence Events Center. The I-70 Trophy will be presented following the conclusion of the game. This trophy, sponsored by Independence Tourism, is awarded to the Missouri team with the best head-to-head record throughout the season. The Comets currently hold a 4-0 lead in the six-game season series.
The Comets have clinched a spot in the MISL Playoffs and will host Game One of the Semi-Finals series on March 9th at 3:10p.m. CT. Fans can receive FREE playoff tickets by reserving and paying in full for their 2014-2015 Missouri Comets Season Tickets by March 4, 2014. Single game tickets for the MISL Semi-Finals at the Independence Events Center are now on sale.

Psoriasis is a skin condition many may have heard about from TV ads promoting prescription drugs. However, there are several ways to treat the disease, and the medications that are typically advertised are often the last in a line of treatments used by those with the condition.
According to the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, psoriasis is a skin disease that results in scaling and inflammation. Its often associated with pain, swelling, heat and redness.
Its a condition that affects about 2 percent of the population, according to Dr. Mona Mofid, a dermatologist at Sharp Grossmont Hospital in La Mesa, and there are many forms of the disease. The condition is chronic, and while she said theres no cure, its something patients and doctors work to keep under control.
The most common form, she said, is plaque psoriasis, which generally affects the skin around joints such as the elbows and knees. Its often marked by large, scaly, silvery patches that itch.
Other forms, such as inverse psoriasis, often target the folds of the skin, including the groin, armpits and under the breasts. Some forms of psoriasis are found on the face and scalp, creating a form of dandruff on the face, while other types affect the whole body and can be life-threatening.
While the cause of the disease is unknown, Mofid said different genes are being examined to pinpoint its origin. She likens the skin cells of those with psoriasis to being on overdrive basically. According to WebMD.com, the cells mature about five times faster than cells in normal skin.
And unlike normal skin cells, which naturally slough off, these cells pile up on the skins surface almost faster than snow on a snowdrift, according to the website.
Although the cause of the disease is unclear, Mofid said there are known triggers for psoriasis, mainly stress. She said stress that causes the disease to flare up can come in many forms. Theres emotional stress everything from work or money issues to life-altering events such as death or divorce and theres also physical stress, She said something that physically taxes the body, like getting the flu, breaking a leg, even banging an elbow into a desk at work, can cause the disease to make its presence known.
Theres often a trigger for psoriasis, she said. Something turns it on. Psoriasis loves elbows, knees and shins. It will flare with trauma.
