Stammzellen aus Nabelschnurblut |
|
"MHH-Forscher können aus Nabelschnurblut Stammzellen herstellen, die nahezu
unbegrenzt vermehrbar sind..."
Auszug aus der MHH - Pressemitteilung, 5.10.2009:
Wissenschaftlern der Medizinischen Hochschule Hannover (MHH) ist es
gelungen, aus Zellen des menschlichen Nabelschnurblutes so genannte
induzierte pluripotente Stammzellen (iPS-Zellen) herzustellen. Diese
können sich – wie embryonale Stammzellen – zu allen Zellen des Körpers
weiterentwickeln. Somit sind sie Hoffnungsträger für Therapien
zahlreicher Krankheiten. Das Team um Professor Dr. Ulrich Martin,
stellvertretender Koordinator des Exzellenzclusters REBIRTH,
veröffentlichte seine Ergebnisse in der aktuellen Ausgabe des
renommierten Magazins Cell Stem Cell. Erstautorin ist die Biologin
Alexandra Haase. Es ist die erste Publikation aus Deutschland zu
menschlichen induzierten pluripotenten Stammzellen (iPS).

Excerpt from the MHH press release: (ina/sc)
At the first cut with the spade, the construction of a new research center for regenerative medicine began on the MHH campus on March 23rd, 2007. In this building, which is to be finished in the summer 2008, those scientists and further partner institutes will be accommodated, who last year for the project REBIRTH ("From regenerative Biology to Reconstructive Therapy") received funding of nearly 40 million Euros for the coming five years issued by the Excellence Initiative of the German Federal and State Governments. The new building, which costs more than 13 million Euros, will carry the name Hans Borst Center for Heart and Stem Cell Research, and was funded by the Braukmann-Wittenberg-Heart Foundation from Burgwedel.
