Stem Cells are promissing but it gonna take a large time to be used in the main public and it is more a reason to give...

    Embryonic-like cells created from mouse stem cells

    Research results of what could be a significant development in stem cell technology were announced today. In experiments that could open a new era in stem cell biology, scientists have found a cheap and easy way to reprogram mature cells from mice back into an embryonic-like state that allowed...

    Royan Institute

    I have been actively and intensely searcing the clinical trials government website for clinical trials. The amount of information there is ridiculously large and sparse at the same time. Go figure, a gov website. I found a number of trials that are recruiting and doing stem cell research. I...

    New Study Shows Stem Cells’ Promise as Future ALS Treatment

    I'm still very hopeful that a cure will be found for ALS even when some recent drug trials have failed flat. Apparently, Stem Cells treatment is one of the few treatments being investigated that may show some promise on fighting this dreadful disease. Although, I not likely might see it in my...

    Biogen quits development of dexpramipexole for ALS

    terrible news but not very surprising. Rob Tyson when he did his analysis a few months back of PLM data told everyone that Dexipramipexole showed little if any efficacy. He is the same guy that reported data for NP 001 showing it to be very successful. There are other off label and phase 2...
