A landmark study led from Lund, has shown that transplanting stem-cell derived dopamine progenitor cells into the brain is feasible. Eight patients were transplanted in the first clinical trial, and no serious side effects linked to the transplanted cells were seen during the first year of follow up. The results are published in Nature Medicine. In Parkinson’s disease, patients lose nerve cells in
Even in Earth’s high northern-latitude forest, climate change is predicted to make wildfires more frequent and severe.Earth’s far north hosts the boreal forest, a vast green belt that stretches from North America to Siberia. The boreal forest is one of the world’s largest CO₂ sinks. Over the past few thousand years it has removed around 1 trillion tonnes of carbon from the air, storing it in the t

In a study from Australia, researchers have looked at whether the dietary supplement krill oil has any effect on pain in people with clinically diagnosed knee osteoarthritis with severe pain and effusion-synovitis. Effusion-synovitis means that there is too much fluid in the synovial joint which can cause swelling, pain, and limited mobility in the affected joint, in this case, the knee joint.Ther
