Stem Cell Therapy for Dogs and Cats Is Innovative at Stafford Veterinary Hospital – By MARIA SCANDALE – The SandPaper

Stafford Township, NJ Stem cell therapy is an incredible process for healing damaged tissue, so it seems remarkable that it is availablefor petsright here in Manahawkin. Stafford Veterinary Hospital, at 211 North Main St., began offering the advanced treatment in 2019, under the direction of Michael Pride, medical director at the facility.

There, stem cell therapy is most commonly applied to osteoarthritis, but can also be used in dogs suffering from hip dysplasia and ligament and cartilage injuries, as well as mobility ailments and some chronic inflammatory issues such as inflammatory bowel disease and chronic kidney disease, which is common in cats.

Stem cell therapy is actually the only thing that can help to reverse the process of arthritis, Pride said. Everything else is a Band-Aid.

This process can actually help to rebuild cartilage and really reduce inflammation without the need of using aspirin-type medications, Pride said. Its a newer technology that we can use to avoid chronic use of medications, which might actually be detrimental in the long term for the liver or kidneys.

Stem cell therapy treats the source of the problem by offering the ability to replace damaged cells with new ones, instructs the website staffordvet.com.

Stem cells are powerful healing cells in the pets body that can become other types of cells. For example, in the case of arthritis, stem cells can become new cartilage cells and have natural anti-inflammatory properties, thus reducing pain and increasing mobility.

The stem cells are your primary structural cell for all other cells in the body; they can differentiate into almost any other cell, explained Pride. Were processing it down into that primordial stem cell; were activating it, and were injecting it into where it needs to be, and it just starts taking on the characteristics of the cells around it.

Table-top machines from MediVet Biologics are the first Adipose Stem Cell therapy kits for in-clinic use, a major advancement. Stem cell therapy for animals has been commercially available since 2004. MediVet pioneered in-clinic treatment options around 2010.

Pride believes Stafford Veterinary Hospital offers the only such treatment in the immediate area; another is in Egg Harbor Township, Atlantic County.

Were always trying to figure out different ways to help the patient without hurting them, he said while petting a kitten that had been a patient for another type of treatment.

As stem cell therapy is more in the news regarding humans, a pet owners first question might be where the stem cells come from that are used in the process. The answer: from fat tissue of the pet itself, extracted and processed the same day.

As the therapy has been refined in the last decade, it has actually started to become a lot easier, more cost-effective more recently, said Pride, since weve been able to process fat tissue instead of actually getting bone marrow.

Fat tissue actually has a much higher concentration of adult stem cells than bone marrow does, so its less painful for the patient, they heal a lot easier, and we dont have to process it in a different facility.

Everything comes from the animal, and we give it back to the animal. Nothing comes from another animal. We dont have to worry about them rejecting the sample; its their own tissue, and were giving it back to them.

The pet typically goes home the same day after about eight hours. First, X-rays and a consultation with the veterinarian can determine whether the pet is a candidate for the treatment.

A pet owner may not even know that their animal has arthritis.

Cats have a lot of inflammatory issues that they tend to be very good at hiding, said Pride. A lot of people dont realize that they have arthritis. They think, oh, my cats just getting older; hes not jumping as much; hes not as strong; hes just sleeping most of the day, but actually he has arthritis. Its very difficult to diagnose in cats. A lot of times you end up having to do X-rays to find where the arthritic joints happen to be.

An inch-and-a-half incision is the minor surgery that harvests the fat tissue from the belly while the pet is anesthetized. For a cat, about 20 gramsare extracted. For a large dog, about 40 gramsare needed. While the pet is recovering from the incision surgery, the veterinary hospital is processing the sample. When the sample is ready, the pet is sedated because we then have to give them the joint injections. Then we can reverse the sedation, and they go home.

We asked the doctor if the process always works. He gave the example that on average, a dog such as a boxer that was hobbled is now able to walk without seeming like its painful. In an extreme positive case, a dog that had been barely walking might be bouncing all over the place in two months.

It doesnt always work to the extent that we would love it to, but we usually notice that there is a positive effect from it, Pride remarked. Every patient will be different in what they experience.

For the same reason that everyones situation is going to be different, cost of treatment was not given for this story.

It generally takes about 30 to 60 days for relief to show, the veterinarian said, and the animals progress will be monitored.

On average, results last about 18 months to two years before more stem cells might have to be injected. The procedure takes about an hour.

The nice thing is once we collect those stem cells (from the first procedure), we can bank the leftovers they are cryogenically stored at MediVet corporate headquarters in Kentucky and we dont have to go through the initial anesthetic surgery, said Pride.

Stem cell therapy is one of several innovative modalities available at Stafford Veterinary Hospital. Laser therapy, acupuncture and holistic medicine are others. Care for exotic pets is available, as is emergency pet care.

Stafford Veterinary Hospital has been in business since 1965, founded by Dr. John Hauge. Today, five highly skilled veterinarians are on staff, and a satellite, Tuckerton Veterinary Clinic, is at 500 North Green St. in Tuckerton.

Pride has been medical director at Stafford Veterinary Hospital since 2008. He attended Rutgers University, then earned his Veterinary of Medicine degree at Oklahoma State University.

The mild-mannered doctor feels a great rewardfrom treating animals that cant speak for themselves when they feel bad.

These guys, theyre always thankful; you can see what they think, he said of treated pets. The turnaround in their attitude, the turnaround in their ability to be more comfortable, you can see it in their faces; you can see it in their actions. You learn to read animals over time.

Its knowing that were helping those who cant help themselves, he added, and you can see it in them; thats the most gratifying.

Why stem cells could be the medical innovation of the century – World Economic Forum

Right now, your bodys stem cells are working hard replacing your skin every two weeks, creating new red and white blood cells and completing thousands of other tasks essential to life. They are your own personalized fountain of youth.

Scientists generally agree that a stem cell should be able to do both of the following:

One theory of ageing suggests that between the ages of 30 and 50, our stem cells reach a turning point and start to decline in number and function. This results in the typical features associated with ageing.

There does not seem to be a single discoverer of stem cells. Accounts date back to the 1800s and even further, but the first successful medical procedure was a bone marrow transfusion in 1939. Advances in immunology led to donor matching, initially via siblings and close relatives. Unrelated donor matching flourished in the 1970s, alongside donor registries.

In the 1980s, scientists identified embryonic stem cells in mice, leading to the 1997 cloning of Dolly the Sheep. This created immense interest for human and medical applications and a backlash in the US as federal R&D funding was essentially halted in 2001.

In 2012, a Nobel Prize was awarded for the earlier discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS). Essentially, they return potency and self-renewal properties to mature non-stem cells, essentially making them act like stem cells again.

In the decade between 2010 and 2019, the first wave of stem cell start-ups emerged, alongside R&D programmes at many large pharmaceutical companies, leading to innovation and the first human clinical trials for iPS and other related therapies.

According to Q3 2019 data from the Alliance for Regenerative Medicine, there are 959 regenerative medicine companies worldwide sponsoring 1,052 active clinical trials; 525 of these companies are in North America, 233 in Europe and Israel, and 166 in Asia. In aggregate, $7.4 billion has been invested in regenerative medicine companies in 2019; $5.6 billion of which has been dedicated to gene and gene-modified cell therapy, $3.3 billion in cell therapy, and $114 million in tissue engineering.

Overview of the cancer stem cells market

Perhaps most excitingly, curative therapies are hitting the market and the results are astonishing: 60% of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia patients taking Novartis Kymirah showed a complete response (no traces of cancer) and were declared in full remission. Meanwhile, 75% of patients with Transfusion-Dependent -Thalassaemia treated with bluebird bios Zynteglo achieved independence from transfusions. Perhaps most astonishingly, 93% of spinal muscular atrophy patients treated with Novartis Zolgensma were alive without permanent ventilation 24 months after treatment. We should expect more medical breakthroughs in the coming years.

New science, new start-ups: several companies in the sector have gone public or been acquired. These exits led to the recycling of talent and capital into new companies. Because the science and commercial systems have also advanced, the companies in the next wave are pursuing bigger challenges, driving innovation, with even greater resources.

Patients are eager: the current market for stem cell therapies is growing at 36% per year, though it will rapidly expand when a breakthrough occurs toward the treatment of a non-communicable disease (such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease) or a lifestyle factor (for example, growing hair in the correct places, expanding cognitive abilities or increasing healthy lifespan).

New R&D models: funding is flowing into the sector from large companies, VC funds, and institutions such as the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) and New York State Stem Cell Science programme (NYSTEM). Some of the leading university R&D platforms include the Center for the Commercialization of Regenerative Medicine in Toronto, the Stanford Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine, the Oxford Stem Cell Institute, and most notably, the Harvard Stem Cell Institute (HSCI).

Founded in 2004, HSCI has established a phenomenal track record. It provided the first $200,000 in funding to Derrick Rossis lab, which inspired the largest biotech IPO to date. HSCI scientists were also co-founders or principals in the three most prominent gene-editing companies (CRISPR Tx, Intellia and Editas), the combined $1.55-billion True North/iPierian acquisitions and the recent $950-million acquisition of Semma Tx, Frequency Tx, Fate Tx, Epizyme Inc., and Magenta Tx.

For the casual investor, Evercore ISI is building a Regenerative Medicine Index, which may be the simplest way to build a portfolio. For institutions and those with deeper pockets, regenerative medicine funds are forming, including the Boston-centric Hexagon Regenerative Medicine Fund, which aims to create companies out of the Harvard Stem Cell Institute.

Caveat emptor. Though patients needs are immediate, those seeking treatments should think very carefully about the risks. There are many dubious clinics touting expensive stem cell treatments and some patients have experienced horrifying complications. Dr. Paul Knoepfler of UC-Davis has written a practical and scientifically accurate guide, a strongly recommended read if you or a family member are considering treatment or a clinical trial.

The leading causes of death in 1900 were mostly infectious/communicable diseases. While the prevalence of most causes has diminished, the largest increases include heart disease (+40%) and cancer (+300%). Granted, this is partly due to doubling life expectancy and a lack of death from other causes. However, given time and resources, scientists and physicians may cure these challenging diseases.

Total disease burden by disease or injury

Today, six of the seven leading causes of death are non-communicable diseases (heart disease, stroke, lung diseases, cancer, Alzheimers disease and diabetes). Based on the early promise mentioned above, regenerative medicine may be our best hope to solve the great non-communicable diseases of our time, and perhaps the single most transformative medical innovation in a century.

Astellas and Adaptimmune team up in CAR-T development – European Biotechnology

Adaptimmune Therapeutics plc and Japanese Astellas Pharma, Inc. have signed a discovery partnership to develop off-the-shelf allogeneic T cell-based cancer therapies from stem cells.

At J.P. Morgan conference, the British company announced that Astellas has agreed to co-develop and co-commercialize stem-cell derived allogeneic CAR-T and TCR T-cell therapies against up to three targets. In contrast to current autologous T cell therapies, allogenic T cell therapies might be manufactured in a central facility reducing production cost significantly compared to autologous cell production and logistics.

Under the agreement, Adaptimmune will identify and validate new targets for generating target-specific T-cell receptors (TCRs), chimeric antigen receptors (CARs), and HLA-independent TCRs that recognize surface epitopes independently from the HLA profile of the tumour cell. Astellas subsidiary Universal Cells, Inc will provide its Universal Donor Cell and Gene Editing Platform, which makes use of a stem cell-tropic rAAV vector for engineering humanpluripotent stem cells to contain deletions, insertions, or point mutations at any genomic position.

Adaptimmune has been collaborating with Universal Cells since 2015 on development of gene-edited induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines that generate proprietary T-cell products without the use of feeder layers.

Under the agreement, Astellas will fund research up until completion of a Phase I trial for each candidate with US$7.5m per year. Subsequently, Astellas and Adaptimmune may opt for co-development and co-commercialization of the candidate, or independent development through a milestone and royalty bearing licence. Under the agreement, Astellas will also have the right to select two targets and develop allogeneic cell therapy candidates on its own.

In case of Astellas would develop the candidates on its own, Adaptimmune may receive up to$897.5m in payments. If Adaptimmune would do so, Astellas may receive up to US$552.5m. If the companies opt for co-commercialisation any T-cell therapy, costs and profits will be shared equally.

Researchers have managed to bio-print a functional mini-liver in 90 days – FLWL News

Brazilian researchers claim to have bio-printed hepatic organoids. These are miniature versions of livers obtained from human blood cells. However, these mini-organs would be able to perform all the functions of a liver. This innovation gives new hope in terms of organ transplant.

A functional mini-liverIn their publication in the journal Biofabrication of November 27, 2019, researchers from the Human Genome and Stem Cell Institute in Sao Paulo (Brazil) indicated that they obtained a mini-liver through bio-printing. However, the latter would fulfill all the functions hoped for! These include the production of vital proteins, the storage of vitamins and the secretion of bile.

The researchers explained that they combined several bioengineering techniques. Indeed, the culture of pluripotent stem cells and cell reprogramming have been combined with 3D bio-printing. However, there is a difference compared to previous research. In fact, the cells were placed entirely in the bio-ink before being extruded. Previously, it was simply a matter of individual cells.

Relieve waiting for transplantNo less than 90 days were required, from collecting the patients blood to producing the tissue. First, the researchers reprogrammed the patients blood cells into induced pluripotent stem cells. Then, the differentiation of the cells made it possible to change them into liver cells. Finally, their spheroids may have been associated with bio-ink.

You should know that the project directors have bio-printed not one, but three mini-livers. Logically, the stem cells came from three different donors. The objective? Test the method then analyze the functionalities of the organs and the maintenance of cellular contact. As expected, the method worked much better than in the case of previous research incorporating individualized cells. The researchers said the technique could be replicated on a large scale.

Thus, this innovation could open up new hopes in terms of organ transplants. Indeed, the wait for an organ can be very long, which can be problematic. In China, tensions around the field of organ transplants have given rise to questionable research. In 2017, researchers said they wanted to clone pigs to recover their organs. The objective? To successfully transplant humans with these same organs and end the terrible waiting lists.

Introduction: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a type of blood disorder that exhibits uncontrolled growth and reduced ability to undergo apoptosis. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is a family member of transcription factors which promotes carcinogenesis in most human cancers. This effect on AML is accomplished through deregulation of several critical genes, such as B cell lymphoma-extra-large (BCL-XL) which is anti-apoptotic protein. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of curcumin (CUR) and thalidomide (THAL) on apoptosis induction and also the alteration of the mRNA expression level of STAT3 and BCL-XL mRNA on AML cell line compounds.Methods: The growth inhibitory effects of CUR and THAL and their combination were measured by MTT assay in U937 and KG-1 cell lines. The rates of apoptosis induction and cell cycle analysis were measured by concurrent staining with Annexin V and PI. The mRNA expression level of STAT3 and BCL-XL was evaluated by Real-Time PCR.Results: CUR inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis in both KG-1 and U937 cells and this effect increased by combination with THAL. The expression level of STAT3 and BCL-XL was significantly down-regulated in KG-1 cells after treatment by CUR and THAL and their combination.Conclusion: Overall, our findings suggested that down-regulation of STAT3 and BCL-XL mRNA expression in response to CUR and THAL treatment lead to inhibition of cell growth and induction of apoptosis.

Study: Mutations in stem cells of young donors can be passed to recipients – STAT

Doctors use stem cell transplants to treat patients with certain cancers or blood disorders. And donors, whose blood or bone marrow is used for the procedures, are typically young, for a variety of reasons.

But a pilot study released Wednesday raised the possibility that such donors are also passing along mutations in stem cells that could lead to health problems for some recipients.

The study found that nearly 45% of younger donors had mutations in the transplanted stem cells that could raise the risk of conditions that are sometimes seen in recipients, a higher rate than presumed. Researchers also reported that some of these mutations persisted and proliferated in the recipients bone marrow for at least a year.

What remains unknown is whether those mutations are actually contributing to health problems for recipients.

The study was small, with just 25 donors included and was not large enough and did not last long enough to determine whether people who received cells with these mutations had worse outcomes after a transplant than recipients who got cells without those mutations. Dr. Todd Druley, the senior author of the paper, which was published in the journal Science Translational Medicine, emphasized that patients should continue to receive these stem cells to treat their leukemias or anemias when recommended.

What were trying to say is that now we can provide surveillance before, during, and after a bone marrow transplant so that if theres an increased risk for a particular outcome, treatment for that and surveillance for that can be instituted sooner, said Druley, a pediatric oncologist at Washington University in St. Louis.

Researchers not involved with the study praised its technical prowess, and said it was worth investigating further to see if the transplanted mutations did lead to worse outcomes for recipients projects that Druley and his colleagues have underway. But they agreed it should not yet change clinical practice.

Donors are already screened to make sure they have a clean bill of health and make for a good match for recipients, based on their immune systems. Experts said it would be unrealistic to screen every potential donor for the kinds of mutations Druley and his team found. Those mutations were infrequent, and it wasnt clear they posed health risks to recipients.

We know that younger donors are better than older donors. We know that the better the donor the better the outcomes. We dont know how these ultra-low level mutations affect outcomes at all, said Dr. Corey Cutler, the medical director of the adult stem cell transplantation program at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

Hematopoietic stem cells generate blood and immune cells. They are sometimes transplanted into patients with certain blood or immune disorders or cancers whose own cells have been wiped out by chemotherapy, essentially restocking the recipients with healthy cells.

But recipients of these transplants sometimes experience graft versus host disease (when the transplant attacks the recipients tissues), heart or immune conditions, or even secondary cancers. Some experts have suspected these conditions might be caused by mutations in donor stem cells, among other factors. Its in part why they favor younger donors, who are expected to have fewer mutations than older donors. (Donors from 18 to 44 account for 86% of transplants for unrelated patients. Relatives often make for better donors because they are more likely to be matched to recipients based on immune system molecules.)

Most of these mutations are probably benign. But its possible that other mutations not only pose a health risk, but also give their host cells a boost over other cells, helping them proliferate over time. That might mean someone who is 40 could have a bad mutation in one in 5,000 cells, but by the age of 50, it could be in one in 50 cells, Druley explained.

The challenge is detecting those mutations. Standard sequencing technology may pick up mutations if they appear in just a small percentage of cells, but for young donors, it would be like finding the few pebbles in a beach full of sand.

Next-generation sequencing is good if you want to find a mutation thats in 20% of cells youre looking at, or even 5%, Druley said. Were looking at mutations that are one in a thousand, or down to one in ten thousand.

For the new study, Druley and colleagues trained a more powerful tool they call error-corrected sequencing on the cells of the 25 donors, who ranged from 20 to 58 years old. (Fifty-eight would be considered older donors, but the median age of the donors in the study was 26.) They looked for mutations in 80 genes in particular, including genes that, when mutated, are associated with leukemia.

What they found: 11 donors had a collective 19 mutations that were not picked up by standard sequencing technology 16 of which were pathogenic, meaning disease causing.

The researchers also studied the recipients, finding that 14 of the 19 mutations had engrafted, or been taken up by the recipient and started to generate other cells, and were still there a year after the transplant. Thirteen of these mutations were pathogenic.

Researchers said it made sense that younger adults had these types of mutations, even if scientists hadnt previously been able to spot them.

Its known that mutations accumulate over time, said Dr. Ross Levine, a leukemia specialist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, who was not involved in the new study. The question has always been in other scenarios if you can detect these clones at earlier or in different contexts, and if they mean anything.

The new study was not set up to answer that last question.

Thats the next phase of this research, Druley said. Some of these mutations, if theyre going to have an effect, may not have an effect for many, many years. And we had a small population. So we didnt have enough numbers or enough time.

Outside researchers said that if these stem cell mutations do contribute to diseases once transferred to recipients, it might take so long or happen so infrequently that it would be difficult to study. Dana-Farbers Cutler said that, for example, cases of donor-derived leukemia when the recipient develops blood cancer after a transplant occur in less than 1% of transplants from unrelated donors.

If the mutations do increase the likelihood of complications in recipients, then why arent they posing a problem for the donors themselves? That might also be tied to the prevalence of these mutations, the researchers said.

In donors, these mutations might appear in, say, 1% of cells, and there is competition among cells of all different types of genetic variants to multiply. Plus, donors have healthy immune systems that can help suppress bad actors.

But if cells with these mutations make their way into recipients who have had their own cells blasted away with chemotherapy, its a new race. The mutations might give them some advantage to multiply faster than other cells that were transplanted. And as the percentage of cells with these mutations rises, they might be more likely to cause disease.

When you have these mutations in a host, it may take decades for them to expand to the point of causing issues, Levine said. In a recipient, however, its almost like youve reset the playing field.
