Four months ago, alarms were set off by two reports showing that CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing of non-transformed human cells occurred with a high frequency of carcinogenic mutations in the p53 cancer gene. Though some experts worried that there would be no easy solution to this problem, published in today’s October issue of The CRISPR Journal,
True or False for Stem Cell Awareness Day 2018 is an excellent and needed RegMedNet feature. There are many misconceptions about stem cells in the research space, and even more misinformation or lacking information in the stem cell industrial space. These sometimes surprising deficits in knowledge and understanding inhibit progress in stem cell medicine and stem cell commercial
Now that Massachusetts stem cell biotechnology company Asymmetrex has developed the first and only technology for specific and accurate counting of therapeutic tissue stem cells, today the company has launched a campaign to alert stem cell scientists, physicians, and patients to the long unmet need of a means to count tissue stem cells. The major
Stem cell biotechnology company Asymmetrex and preclinical toxicology CRO DRIK will begin to execute a new partnership that has the goal of addressing a significant unmet need in the pharmaceutical industry. The two companies will collaborate to accelerate Pharma’s adoption of Asymmetrex’s AlphaSTEM Test™ for evaluating drug effects on tissue stem cells. Asymmetrex Establishes Partnership
Although more investment by major pharmaceutical companies would accelerate progress in regenerative medicine, in recent years, regenerative medicine initiatives have experienced a tepid reception by Big Pharma. In an editorial article appearing today in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing, James Sherley, founder and director of stem cell biotechnology tools company Asymmetrex, offers an explanation and a solution for
Massachusetts stem cell biotechnology company Asymmetrex’s, innovative AlphaSTEM Test™ for specific counting of adult tissue stem cells is rapidly gaining greater visibility and interest. Most recently, as a special feature in the November new edition of the Scientist.com’s newsletter, INNOV8, the technology’s applications in drug development are the focus. In the November issue of the Scientist.com’s monthly
An international audience of regenerative medicine interests has registered to attend a November 30 online expert panel discussion on the current nature and quality of therapeutic tissue stem cell preparations. Co-sponsored by U.S. stem cell biotechnology company Asymmetrex and U.K. headquartered regenerative medicine social media network RegMedNet, the panel will dispel common misconceptions about the
The U.S. stem cell therapy and regenerative medicine industry and patients are presently awaiting recently promised new policies from the FDA to improve guidance and oversight for experimental stem cell treatments in both private clinics and authorized clinical trials. Massachusetts stem cell biotech company Asymmetrex proposes that its new technology for certifying the specific dose
Since the beginnings for stem cell research and stem cell medicine, it has not been possible to count tissue stem cells, determine their therapeutic dose, certify their quality, or evaluate the effects of drugs and environmental agents on their function. But, today the US Patent & Trademark Office signals the end of this situation by
In an online forum scheduled for June 27, 2017, the regenerative medicine social media network RegMedNet will sponsor a panel discussion on emerging developments in the global landscape of government regulations for stem cell medical research. Asymmetrex, a company developing new methods for specifically quantifying adult tissue stem cells, will provide expertise on the panel
