Geneticists from Ohio, California and Japan joined forces in a quest to correct a faulty chromosome through cellular reprogramming. Their study, published online today in Nature, used stem cells to correct a defective "ring chromosome" with a normal chromosome. Such therapy has the promise to correct chromosome abnormalities that give rise to birth defects, mental disabilities and growth limitations.
"In the future, it may be possible to use this approach to take cells from a patient that has a defective chromosome with multiple missing or duplicated genes and rescue those cells by removing the defective chromosome and replacing it with a normal chromosome," said senior author Anthony Wynshaw-Boris, MD, PhD, James H. Jewell MD '34 Professor of Genetics and chair of Case Western Reserve School of Medicine Department of Genetics and Genome Sciences and University Hospitals Case Medical Center.
Wynshaw-Boris led this research while a professor in pediatrics, the Institute for Human Genetics and the Eli and Edythe Broad Center of Regeneration Medicine and Stem Cell Research at UC, San Francisco (UCSF) before joining the faculty at Case Western Reserve in June 2013.
Individuals with ring chromosomes may display a variety of birth defects, but nearly all persons with ring chromosomes at least display short stature due to problems with cell division. A normal chromosome is linear, with its ends protected, but with ring chromosomes, the two ends of the chromosome fuse together, forming a circle. This fusion can be associated with large terminal deletions, a process where portions of the chromosome or DNA sequences are missing. These deletions can result in disabling genetic disorders if the genes in the deletion are necessary for normal cellular functions.
The prospect for effective counter measures has evaded scientistsuntil now. The international research team discovered the potential for substituting the malfunctioning ring chromosome with an appropriately functioning one during reprogramming of patient cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). iPSC reprogramming is a technique that was developed by Shinya Yamanaka, MD, PhD, a co-corresponding author on the Nature paper. Yamanaka is a senior investigator at the UCSF-affiliated Gladstone Institutes, a professor of anatomy at UCSF, and the director of the Center for iPS Cell Research and Application (CiRA) at the Institute for Integrated Cell-Material Sciences (iCeMS) in Kyoto University. He won the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2012 for developing the reprogramming technique.
Marina Bershteyn, PhD, a postdoctoral fellow in the Wynshaw-Boris lab at UCSF, along with Yohei Hayashi, PhD, a postdoctoral fellow in the Yamanaka lab at the Gladstone Institutes, reprogrammed skin cells from three patients with abnormal brain development due to a rare disorder called Miller Dieker Syndrome, which results from large terminal deletions in one arm of chromosome 17. One patient had a ring chromosome 17 with the deletion and the other two patients had large terminal deletions in one of their chromosome 17, but not a ring. Additionally, each of these patients had one normal chromosome 17.
The researchers observed that, after reprogramming, the ring chromosome 17 that had the deletion vanished entirely and was replaced by a duplicated copy of the normal chromosome 17. However, the terminal deletions in the other two patients remained after reprogramming. To make sure this phenomenon was not unique to ring chromosome 17, they reprogrammed cells from two different patients that each had ring chromosomes 13. These reprogrammed cells also lost the ring chromosome, and contained a duplicated copy of the normal chromosome 13.

Nature study discovers chromosome therapy to correct a severe chromosome defect
Vinod Khosla has stirred up some controversy in the healthcare community over the last several years by suggesting that computers might be able to provide better care than doctors.This includes remarks he made at Strata Rx in 2012, including that, We need to move from the practice of medicine to the science of medicine. And the science of medicine is way too complex for human beings to do.
So when I saw the news that Khosla Ventures has just invested $4Min Series A funding intoLumiata (formerly MEDgle), a company that specializes in healthcare data analytics, I was very curious to hear more about that companys vision.Ash Damle is the CEO at Lumiata.We recently spoke by phone to discuss how data can improve access to care and help level the playing field of care quality.
Ash Damle: Were bringing together the best of medical science and graph analytics to provide the best prescriptive analysis to those providing care. We data-mine all the publicly available data sources, such asjournals, de-identified records, etc. We analyze the data to make sure were learning the right things and, most importantly, what the relationships are among the data. We have fundamentally delved into looking at that whole graph, the way Google does to provide you with relevant search results. We curate those relationships to make sure theyre sensible, and take into account behavioral and social factors.
Our goal is to apply the best of medical science in every health interaction possible. In the long term, we want to optimize health. In the short term, we want to optimize care.
Ash Damle: Right now we have care as a service, but not necessarily health as a service. Care is reactive, while health is proactive. If you had a physician who could spend three hours a week looking over all of your data, he could tell you the things you need to do each week to stay healthy and be proactive. But thats not efficient. So we want to bring data science and the power of big data to bear, and we want to provide that anytime, anywhere.
Ash Damle: Theres so much medical science out there, but its really hard to apply it all within a limited amount of time. Were just in the beginning of the datification of health, but if we can computationalize medical science with all the power and nuance that computers and data analysis have to offer, then suddenly we have a way to apply the best of medical science to everyones care all the time.
The advent of the variety and volume of big data presents an opportunity to better contextually understand what is happening with the patient, and what is likely to occur in the future. Everyday we are amazed by the brilliance of physicians. We want to democratize medical science and make it easier so that all kinds of medical stafffrom advice nurses, to physicians assistants, to doctorscan apply higher quality care.
Were at the beginning of what we can do, and were excited about having such an extraordinary partner.
Ash Damle: Physicians and nurse practitioners and other providers are very empathetic people; part of why they do what they do is that they care. How do we superpower them and enable them to do the best they can by giving them the best tools?
The reality is that if a care provider is in the Southwest versus the Northeast of the United States, theyll see different things, and so the way they think about whats more likely will change based on local conditions. Experience is key and intuition is extraordinarily powerful. But intuition is the ability to synthesize huge numbers of variables and personal experience to deduce things from weak signals. In some sense, thats also what were trying to enable, because not everyone has the same level of experience that our best physicians do.We want to democratize that brilliance so that everyone gets the best care. We believe tools improving and applying the science of care should be used to augment and amplify the intangible human components.

The democratization of medical science
Sarasota, FL (PRWEB) January 13, 2014
The DaSilva Institute opened their brand new state-of-the-art medical facility in Sarasota, Florida on December 16, 2013.
The DaSilva Institute combines functional medicine with anti-aging and regenerative medicine, making it the most unique multi-specialty medical center of its kind in the U.S.
One major advantage that the DaSilva Institute has over similar centers found elsewhere in the US and overseas is its focus on autologous stem cell therapy. Used to reverse degenerative diseases and injuries, this innovative therapy involves harvesting stem cells from the patients own body fat without the controversial use of embryos, umbilical cords, placentas or donors, thus eliminating the risk of viruses and rejection.
The DaSilva Institute is also known for their expertise in bio-identical hormone replacement therapies, functional gastrointestinal disorders, mood disorders, nutritional counseling, IV nutrition and chelation, natural cancer support, regenerative orthopedics, platelet rich plasma (PRP), prolotherapy, and several new aesthetic treatments including facial rejuvenation, natural breast and buttocks augmentation and gentle liposculpture.
Guy DaSilva, MD, founder and medical director of the DaSilva Institute, states, Our vision is to make this extraordinary form of medicine accessible and affordable for people in the U.S. You shouldnt have to fly to other countries and spend tens of thousands of dollars for what you can receive in your own backyard for much less.
After outgrowing their previous office in the Lakewood Ranch area, the decision to move into a larger, more optimally equipped facility led them to the heart of Sarasota.
Dr. DaSilva states, My hope is that people will benefit from our extended menu of services and enjoy the beautiful and comforting ambiance of our new office, as well as the convenience of the new Sarasota location. And above all, we want to help more people discover health without limits.

According to Mintels consumer research, the anti-aging skincare market has grown to over $2 billion annually, and 76 percent of consumers concerned with aging are interested in products that use natural or organic ingredients. What can be more natural and organic than the foods that you eat?
Can your diet play a role in anti-aging? Just ask Maye Musk, a 65-year old model and registered dietitian. While Musk admits that genetics, getting adequate sleep, avoiding smoking, and limiting sun exposure, can all play a role in how your body ages, diet is key as you have to eat well to look and feel young. She eats a healthy, high fiber diet to maintain her weight and youthful looks.
According to the American Academy of Dermatology, a well-balanced diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and lean proteins can lead to healthier skin. Elisa Zied, RD, author of the new book, Younger Next Week, agrees about the power of a healthy diet. For example, fruits and veggies not only keep us hydrated because of their high water content, but they can also help us look younger and better, writes Zied. Certain phytochemicals and nutrients in foods may also play a specific anti-aging role in helping your skin look more youthful. Research suggests that eating more carotenoid-rich produce is associated with improved skin color and a more healthy and attractive appearance, according to Zied.
As we age our skin becomes thinner and drier, losing some of the elasticity that we had in our youth, which paves the way to wrinkles, according to researcher, Richard L. Roberts, Ph.D. These changes are accelerated by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun as well as tanning beds. While the skin has a natural antioxidant capacity to protect against damage caused by those UV rays, too much exposure can overwhelm its capabilities leaving the skin vulnerable to damage. According to an article authored by Roberts and published in the American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine, lutein and zeaxanthin are two carotenoids that may help boost the antioxidant capacity of your skin as well as the health of your eyes. Look to egg yolks, corn, orange peppers, orange juice, and red grapes for excellent sources of both of these antioxidants.
Drinking tea also has its perks when it comes to looking and feeling younger, according to Zied. Many of the benefits of tea are linked with its high content of polyphenols (specifically flavonoids), powerful plant chemicals that act as antioxidants that also can protect against UV skin damage.
Vitamin E is another important antioxidant in the skin that helps avoid accelerated aging. According to an article published in Clinics in Dermatology, adequate stores need to be maintained in the body daily. Unfortunately, many Americans fall short of their daily needs of this vitamin so adding vitamin E-rich foods sources, such as wheat germ, sunflower seeds, almonds, and corn and olive oil, can help boost your intake. Since this antioxidant works synergistically with vitamin C in the body, your diet should also have a wide variety of vitamin C-rich foods, such as citrus fruits, kiwi, strawberries, peppers and broccoli. Research also suggests that vitamin C, in and of itself, may also help reduce the prevalence of wrinkles and dry skin due to aging. Lastly, vitamin A, which is found in carotenoid-rich dark green veggies, such as spinach and kale, and orange vegetables, such as carrots, sweet potatoes and pumpkin, is also needed for healthy skin.
Sometimes life will get in the way of making the best food choices, but if we prioritize nurturing ourselves and make time to care for ourselves, we can reclaim the vitality we so deserve, states Zied.
Be well, Joan

January 13, 2014 - Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) SYRACUSE, N.Y. - The Syracuse Silver Knights claimed a season sweep of the Missouri Comets as they took an 11-8 victory on Friday night in front of 2,495 fans at The Oncenter War Memorial. All of Syracuse's points came in the third quarter as they rallied from a six-point halftime deficit to claim victory.
The Comets got out to a fast start as Lucas Rodriguez opened the scoring only 44 seconds into the game, and Missouri added to its lead before the end of the first quarter when Ramone Palmer put home a finish from Brian Harris' pass. Milan Ivanovic then added to the Comets' lead less than four minutes into the second quarter for a 6-0 halftime lead.
Syracuse's comeback began early in the third quarter as Bo Jelovac drove home a finish from 3-point range 50 seconds in, and the Silver Knights took the lead on back-to-back goals by Nate Bourdeau and Neto. Missouri regained the lead as Vahid Assadpour added to his league-leading points total, but another pair of goals Cory Elenio and Neto gave the Silver Knights a three-point lead going to the fourth quarter.
The Silver Knights held the Comets scoreless in the fourth quarter as Bryan O'Quinn finished the game with 23 saves to earn his side its seventh win of the season and sole possession of third place in the MISL standings.
SATURDAY
MILWAUKEE 28, ROCHESTER 12: Marcio Leite had five assists and Nick Perera a hat trick as the Milwaukee Wave cruised to victory against the Rochester Lancers in front of 5,324 fans at U.S. Cellular Arena. The Wave's win capped the club's 30th anniversary weekend, which saw a large number of alumni in attendance to celebrate the club's landmark season.
Milwaukee jumped out to an early 4-0 lead on goals by Carlos Munoz and JC Banks, but the Lancers pulled within a point as Mauricio Salles struck from 3-point range. Banks and Salles each added a second goal before Pablo made it 8-5 at the end of the first quarter, and from there the Wave pulled away.
Three consecutive goals, including two from Perera, in the second quarter led to a 14-5 halftime lead, and while Stephen Basso made it a six-point game with a 3-pointer to start the third, the Wave scored six consecutive goals to close the period and start the fourth to comfortably claim victory.
MISSOURI 13, PENNSYLVANIA 5: The Missouri Comets rounded out their final east coast trip of the season as they held off a rally by the Pennsylvania Roar at Santander Arena. Byron Alvarez had a goal and an assist as the Comets kept the Roar winless in their expansion season.
Missouri claimed an early lead as Robert Palmer scored off a turnover 61 seconds in, and Coady Andrews added a 3-pointer to make it 5-0 by the end of the first quarter. Goals by Ramone Palmer and Alvarez stretched the Comets' lead to 9-0 midway through the third quarter, but then the Roar began to come back as new addition Kingsley Onwuka scored in his debut and Jerjer Gibson struck from 3-point range to make it a four-point game with just more than six minutes to play.
