Creating a bank to store a new type of stem cell produced from donors\' ordinary skin cells could help reduce time and money for treating patients with regenerative medicine in the future, a Japanese researcher said on Wednesday. This would be more practical than tailor-made treatments for individual patients, said Shinya Yamanaka of Kyoto University. <a href="http://www.cellmedicine.com/news318.asp" TARGET="_blank">Read More</a>]]></description>

On Wednesday, a Japanese scientist who recently broke new ground in the field of stem cells said that the technology could be used to cure diseases and heal injuries within 10 years. Shinya Yamanaka of Kyoto University said the new technology is so simple that many laboratories are competing to make further breakthroughs. <a href="http://www.cellmedicine.com/news317.asp" TARGET="_blank">Read More</a>]]></description>

Research from the American Academy of Pediatrics shows that transplant doctors are increasingly using umbilical cord blood as a source of stem cells. And unlike embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells - including those found in umbilical cord blood - do not require the destruction of human life. There are no successful treatment trials in humans using embryonic stem cells. <a href="http://www.cellmedicine.com/news315.asp" TARGET="_blank">Read More</a>]]></description>

Dr. Yau is researching turning bone-marrow stem cells into preliminary heart cells. If successful, these \"supercells\" could be injected into a damaged heart area, where they would make the full conversion from heart-like stem cell to a regular heart cell. <a href="http://www.cellmedicine.com/news312.asp" TARGET="_blank">Read More</a>]]></description>

City based Jeevan Blood Bank, a non profit company, will establish a Public Stem Cell Bank, which would provide high quality stem cells for treatment. 70 per cent of the capacity would be for public storage and 30 per cent for private storage. For private storage, people would pay for the service, which would be used for funding the public storage. <a href="http://www.cellmedicine.com/news310.asp" TARGET="_blank">Read More</a>]]></description>
