Dear ,
An interesting patent (#7,419,690) issued last week teaches the use of Yam extracts for stimulation of hematopoiesis. The specification has some pretty impressive post-5FU hematopoietic recovery data.
Another patent from last week (#7,419,825) revealed that CD15 is a useful molecule for selecting neural stem cells.
In the news, a report from Spain demonstrated that neural stem cells, are similar to hematopoietic stem cells in the sense that chronic inflammatory stimuli mediate inhibition of function. This is part of a growing trend of papers examining the qualitative nature of various types of inflammatory stimuli and how they effect various stem cells in different ways.

The Stem Cell Meeting, to be held in San Francisco on September 16-17, 2008, is returning for its 3rd year. This conference will examine the up to date most critical scientific, policy and business issues facing stem cell research, medicine and investment. In collaboration with the leaders of the City of San Francisco and the California Institute of Regenerative Medicine, it brings together an international assembly of scientists, clinicians, policymakers and business leaders who share their vision and passion for the life sciences’ most promising field.
This Stem Cell Meeting is the premier international event bringing together world-renowned scientists at the frontier of embryonic and adult stem cell research with decision-makers and thought leaders in policy, ethics, patient advocacy, finance, business, and media to explore the challenge and promise of stem cell research and the compelling potential of emerging therapies.
StemCellPatents.com is proud to be a supporter of the The Stem Cell Meeting.
