How MC Hammer And Other Performing Artists Are Sharing Their Love Of Science – Forbes

If you've been keeping tabs on MC Hammer lately, you may have noticed that he spent the last few weeks enthusiastically talking about science on Twitter. He tweeted about a gene found in neurons, about worm RNA, about slime molds, and much more.

MC Hammer has been sharing his love of science with his Twitter followers in the last few weeks. ... [+] (Pictured here during a Capitol Music Group event on August 8, 2018 in LA. Photo by Rich Polk/Getty Images for Capitol Music Group)

This isn't unprecedented. It's not unusual for MC Hammer to talk about science (he was tweeting about laser-controlled fly brains back in 2014) and it's not unusual for performing artists in general to be vocal supporters of science.

Over the last few years, several other musicians have publicly shared their fascination with various fields of science. A few years ago, singer Charlotte Church revealed that she loves physics. meanwhile, Ben Folds and Rosanne Cash both developed an interest in neuroscience. Folds has spoken with neuroscientist Daniel Levitin about the science behind music, and Cash collaborated with neuroscientist-led band The Amygdaloids on a song. The Wu-Tang Clan's GZA has been focusing on science-themed rap the past decade, creating an as-yet unreleased science album. Bjrk also released a science-inspired album in 2011.

And then there are the scientists with high-profile music careers. Long before he became a TV science presenter and physicist, Brian Cox was keyboard player in '90s band D:Ream. Queen guitarist Brian May quit his astrophysics PhD when the band became too popular to manage both careers, but he picked it back up a few decades later. He now occasionally works on science communication projects with NASA and others. The Offspring's Dexter Holland also paused a PhD during the height of his band's success and returned to USC to finish his PhD in 2017. His thesis on the molecular biology of HIV on got a mention in Rolling Stone.

Some performing artists use their platform to raise attention and money for specific causes. Country singer Willie Nelson is interested in stem cell therapy and has supported the field by raising funds for the University of Texas' Southwestern Medical Center. Meanwhile, actors Michael J Fox and Leonardo DiCaprio both run foundations that support scientific research. Fox launched his foundation in 2000 to provide funding and resources for Parkinson's Disease after he was diagnosed with the condition himself. DiCaprios foundation supports environmental research, and has partly funded a range of research projects, such as a study on kelp forests or research on wildland fires.

The list goes on. For every celebrity that gets unwarranted attention for peddling unproven treatments or gimmicks, you'll find several others being the voice of reason and using their platform to support science. And that public support is something that researchers very much appreciate.

Scientists often have the intention to communicate their work widely, but the constrant struggle to survive beyond their current grant pressures them to focus on getting the research done and published in specialized journals, often without finding the time to share that work with the wider world. However, people are trying to change this through new science communication methods. The field of science communication studies how research is shared and looks for ways to connect people with science. Here, too, we find a celebrity. After presenting the PBS show Scientific American Frontiers, actor Alan Alda founded the Alan Alda Center For Science Communication, which offers advice and training for researchers to help them share their story with others.

In a 2016 interview with the Australian National University, Alda emphasizes that it's important to show the people behind the research. "I think when we see scientists as human beings, the door is open for us a little bit, we can go into their lives. Theyre not the white-coated gurus on the mountaintop."

Showing scientists as human beings is exactly what MC Hammer has been doing with his platform. This week, he has been supporting the #BlackInChem initiative, amplifying the profiles of black chemists and showing his followers some of the people behind the research.

Scientists on Twitter have been understandably excited when MC Hammer retweets them. Not just because of the brief brush with fame, but because researchers are always trying to reach new people with their work.

It can be hard to share science with people beyond the usual science fans. People have to want to attend a science festival, purposely buy a popular science magazine, or deliberately tune in to a science show. Online, our algorithms keep feeding us the same topics we always look at. But by using their platform to share science news and scientist profiles, high-profile performing artists like MC Hammer can break through that bubble and give their audience a glimpse into a world that they might otherwise not seek out themselves.

Gore partners with San Diego company on cell delivery system with potential to treat Type 1 diabetes – delawarebusinessnow.com

ViaCyte, Inc. and Newark-based W. L. Gore & Associates, Inc. announced the two companies have signed an agreement covering the next phase of their collaboration focused on the development of ViaCytes Encaptra Cell Delivery System that uses Gore material technologies.

The technology is designed to produce insulin for patients with Type I diabetes, formerly known as juvenile diabetes.

The Encaptra System could be a transformative therapy for patients with type 1 diabetes, the companies noted.

Tapping into Gores world-class materials science and medical device expertise, new membrane technology was developed that appears to allow successful engraftment and beta cell proliferation while minimizing the host foreign body response, said Paul Laikind, CEO of ViaCyte. This agreement is an important next step on our path towards a commercial product as well as a template for future agreements for additional work ViaCyte and Gore may do together on cell delivery technology.

Our collaboration with ViaCyte has been very productive in enabling the clinical advancement of the PEC-Encap product candidate with proprietary Gore materials technology, said Erin Hutchinson, business leader, Gore PharmBIO Cell Encapsulation Products. We are delighted to further strengthen our collaboration on the path to the delivery of a potentially functional curative product for those currently suffering with type 1 diabetes and help pioneer the new field of cell replacement therapy.

ViaCyte is the only company with stem cell-derived islet replacement candidates undergoing clinical testing and the only group to show that the implanted cells are capable of producing insulin in people with type 1 diabetes.

The Companys promising candidates have the potential to deliver a functional cure for people with type 1 diabetes and could be an advancement for people with insulin-requiring type 2 diabetes.

Under the terms of the agreement, Gore will manufacture and supply a proprietary membrane and the device component for use with ViaCytes PEC-Encap product candidate.

The novel Gore membrane has been evaluated in preclinical studies. Gore will continue to collaborate with ViaCyte to optimize the device design and implant techniques in support of human clinical trials.

Early human clinical trials of PEC-Encap with the new membrane are underway and preliminary histological results are encouraging. Should the membrane prove successful in the ongoing trial, Gore will assume the responsibility for manufacturing the Encaptra System incorporating the novel membrane technology for late stage clinical development and commercial use.

ViaCyte has shown that once implanted and successfully engrafted PEC-01 cells mature into beta cells that secrete insulin in a regulated manner to control blood glucose levels. The Encaptra System serves to protect the PEC-01 cells from the host immune system thus eliminating the need for immune suppression drugs commonly used with other transplants.

A critical enabling component of the Encaptra System that contains and protects the cells is a specifically designed semi-permeable membrane that encapsulates the cells but allows for diffusion of oxygen and nutrients into the device and insulin and other hormones out of the device and into the circulation.

The Encaptra System membrane is composed of an expanded PTFE composite, similar to materials that are used in Gores implantable medical products..

Gore and ViaCyte began a collaboration in 2017.

ViaCyte is funded in part by the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) and JDRF. ViaCyte is headquartered in San Diego.

FibroGenesis Reports Breakthrough in Prevention of COVID-19 Blood Clotting Laboratory Studies Suggest PneumoBlast COVID-19 Cell Therapy Reduces…

HOUSTON, Aug. 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) FibroGenesis, a clinical stage company developing fibroblast based therapeutic solutions for unmet medical needs, announced today new data supporting utilization of its PneumoBlast product in treatment of COVID-19. Laboratory experiments comprised of admixing PneumoBlast with activated monocyte or endothelial cells demonstrated significant inhibition of tissue factor expression. Tissue factor is the key molecule inducing blood clotting in COVID-19 patients. Monocytes are cells which normally protect the body against pathogens. In the case of COVID-19, monocytes enter the lungs and cause coagulation. Endothelial cells are cells which make up the inside of the blood vessel and regulate substance flow between the bloodstream and surrounding tissues.

It was observed that treatment of activated monocytes with PneumoBlast resulted in a 77% reduction of tissue factor expression as compared to untreated monocytes (p,lt; 0.001). Mixture of mesenchymal stem cells with activated monocytes resulted in a 13% inhibition of tissue factor expression (p= 0.01). Furthermore, in activated endothelial cells, PneumoBlast decreased expression of tissue factor by 80% (p,lt; 0.001), whereas mesenchymal stem cells resulted in a 30% (p= 0.01) reduction.

It is believed that a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in COVID-19 occurs because of unrestrained blood clotting. Studies have shown the high propensity for clotting in COVID-19 patients is associated with inflammation. The Company previously demonstrated PneumoBlast reduces proteins necessary for inflammation, such as TNF-alpha. The current study shows PneumoBlast can also work downstream of inflammation and directly suppress the clotting cascade.

This data is truly stunning, said Tom Ichim, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of FibroGenesis. Currently one of the major obstacles to successful treatment of COVID-19 is the unusually high level of unregulated coagulation, which in many cases is not resolved by standard anticoagulants. The ability of PneumoBlast cells to reduce blood clotting potential in both monocytic and endothelial cells speaks volumes about the multifactorial mechanisms by which we believe our product will work on COVID-19.

We are thankful for our team of clinical collaborators and scientists who are exploring and identifying novel mechanisms by which PneumoBlast appears to be effective against COVID-19, commented Pete OHeeron, President and CEO of FibroGenesis. We are the first cell therapy company to address the issue of coagulation in COVID-19. We see this, as another indication of the superiority of fibroblasts compared to stem cells.

About FibroGenesis

Based in Houston, Texas, FibroGenesis, is a regenerative medicine company developing an innovative solution for chronic disease treatment using human dermal fibroblasts. Currently, FibroGenesis holds 235+ U.S. and international issued patents/patents pending across a variety of clinical pathways, including Disc Degeneration, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinsons, Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, Cancer, Diabetes, Liver Failure, Colitis and Heart Failure.

Joliet toddler with cancer missed 2nd birthday at home due to Chicago riots – The Herald-News

Owen Buell of Joliet has gone through a lot in his short toddler life.

In February, Owen was diagnosed with a neuroblastoma, a type of cancer most commonly found in children age 5 or younger.

Hes had chemotherapy, and he had the first of two stem cell transplants on July 8.

And even when Owen went to a nearby Ronald McDonald House, he returned to the hospital for three days due to an infection his central line, said his grandmother, Jackie Moore of Florida.

Owen has had a feeding tube, numerous ports, bone marrow tests, stem cell extractions, major abdominal surgery, according to The Help for Baby Owen Buell and his Family Facebook page, which Moore moderates.

So you can imagine how excited his family was to celebrate his second birthday Monday. Moore even shipped a 3-foot-tall stuffed llama to Owens home to surprise him because Owen loves llamas.

Except Owen didnt get to see the llama.

Or any of his other birthday gifts.

He wasnt there.

Owen and his parents, Brian Buell and Valerie Mitchell, were at a Ronald McDonald House in Chicago. The Ann & Robert H. Lurie Childrens Hospital of Chicago was supposed to discharge him on Monday, but that didnt happen because of the riots, Moore said.

The hospital website said some clinics might be canceled due to unrest in the city.

Moore said shes upset, not just for Owen and his parents, but also for the other families at Ronald McDonald House with children who are also fighting for their lives.

Can you imagine those kids being inside and listening to this? Moore said. They can still look out the windows and hear the sirens and hear the gunshots. Its terrifying.

Moores also worried about the food situation for the families at the Ronald McDonald House.

Meals are freshly made meals provided by caring volunteers, according to the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Chicagoland & NW Indiana website.

Moores afraid volunteers wont be able to get near the Ronald McDonald House to bring nourishing meals or restock supplies.

There might be Twinkies and Zingers and fruit chews, Moore said. But its not a meal.

When Owen is finally discharged, he will come home with a shopping bag full of medical supplies, Moore said.

In a few weeks, Owen will resume is cancer treatments in preparation for a second stem cell transplant.

The goal of the transplant is to make his bones more receptive to the chemo and possibly have him go into remission, according to the Help for Baby Owen Buell and his Family Facebook page.

In the meantime, Owens brothers, Elliott, age 7, and Bentley, age 4, decorated the house for the occasion, Moore said.

Owens gifts are waiting for him to unwrap them.

I told my daughter, Put the cake in the refrigerator, Moore said. At 2 years old, he doesnt know its his birthday. Hell be just as happy tomorrow if he can go home.

She paused.

And I hope he likes the llama Grandma got him, she said.
