(Part 5 of 7) Evan Henry, a Parkinson’s disease patient advocate, and Birgitt Schuele, a professor at The Parkinson’s Institute, spoke at “Synapses Firing: Connections Made”, a patient advocacy event hosted by the California stem cell funding agency (CIRM). The 100+ people in attendance heard from patient advocates about living with neurodegenerative disease and from scientists about recent progress in stem cell research that may lead to new treatments. The event was held on May 7th 2011, at UC-Irvine’s Sue and Bill Gross Stem Cell Research Center.

Cord Blood America, a look at one year! CBAI has enjoyed a prosperous year with news releases full of growth and acquisitions. In addition, stem cells have been in the news more frequently due to new research and findings. Besides current uses, medical research is ongoing on how to use these cells to combat heart disease, Parkinson’s disease, spinal cord injuries, sickle cell anemia, cancer and other difficult diseases to treat. Researchers postulate that the cells they remove from the umbilical cord blood can someday be turned into every single tissue in the body, making, for instance, the repair of a damaged heart possible, or facilitating recovery from a stroke by turning stem cells into brain cells.

Professor Trounson’s presentation focuses on how stem cell research has the potential to yield groundbreaking new tools to understand and develop therapies for CP and related brain disorders. He also discusses the challenging nature of the research and its high risk to investigators which in many cases requires novel interdisciplinary collaborations and an increased focus on translations. Professor Alan Trounson is President of the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) in California, the state’s billion stem cell agency. He is a pioneer of human IVF and associated reproductive technologies including diagnosis of inherited genetic disease in pre-implantation embryos, and the discovery and production of human embryonic stem cells and their directed differentiation into a range of cell and tissue types.

Dr. Centeno – Medical Director of Regenerative Scinces discusses the future of regenerative medicine and stem cell based orthopedics.
Patient now functioning primarily without oxygen and after first treatment, video of patient shows he is thrilled and very happy with the results. Patient was treated with Autologous stem cells and trans retinoic acid by nebulizer and glutothion intravenously and by nebulizer also added fiber blast growth factor and hepatocyte growth factor to promote functions.
