California [US], February 24 (ANI): A clinical study led by researchers of the University of California claims to help explain the wide variety of COVID-19 symptoms and aid search for therapies for the deadly infection.

Approach could provide new path for difficult-to-treat forms of Leber congenital amaurosis. Fluorescently labeled organoid showing columnal cells in outer ring. Anand Swaroop, Ph.D., NEI Scientists at the National Eye Institute (NEI) have developed a promising gene therapy strategy for a rare disease that causes severe vision loss in childhood. A form of Leber congenital amaurosis, the disease is caused by autosomal-dominant mutations in the CRX gene, which are challenging to treat with gene therapy . The scientists tested their approach using lab-made retinal tissues built from patient cell...

Pig stem cells offer a new way to grow human organs for transplantation In a new paper published in Stem Cell Reports, Bhanu Telugu and co-inventor Chi-Hun Park of the University of Maryland (UMD) Department of Animal and Avian Sciences show for the first time that newly established stem cells from pigs, when injected into embryos, contributed to the development of only the organ of interest (the embryonic gut and liver), laying the groundwork for stem cell therapeutics and organ transplantation. Telugu's start-up company, Renovate Biosciences Inc. (RBI), was founded with the goal of leverag...
