IU Researchers Create the Inner Ear from Stem Cells, Opening Potential for New Treatments

You can read this on RNL Bio : http://www.healthintheglobalvillage...is-arrested-and-charged-with-insider-trading/

 

This is probably one of the most ambitious tinnitus clinical trials with the aim of a cure using stem cells that I have seen to date...

http://www.rosenberg-medical-group.com/tinnitus-stem-cell-treatment.html

Admittedly, it is also one of the most expensive...

 

that website looks like a scam to me : lots of image bank jpgs used, no reference whatsoever, no names anywhere, completely unknown in the UK, held by an SA in the republic of seychelles ???

 

I am afraid but @James White is correct. State of the art isotope 9001:2008 std labs in Asia....uhh....Dats the teller there. It's a scam. No references to any studies or any research whatsoever .....and the best bit they say
Join our TI STEM CELL THERAPY
CLINICAL EVALUATION Program

We are offering to patients an approved stem cell treatment, which we also conduct as a clinical trial series as a ‘proof-of-concept’ run to collect and re-confirm verifiable positive clinical treatment results.*

And then they want you to pay 38 k....OUCH

Beware the perils of quackery

 

Here is the article :

I can't seem to find much more about it, does anyone have more information?

Very good question James. I was watching a tv show and they showed how they create stem cells from your own skin, then reprogram them. I was waiting to see how they knew where to go, and the narrator said they take bone protein, and the protein changed to tell them where to go. It was disappointing that they did not go into any more detail regarding the process.

I saw this about 3 months ago in the US on a show called "Through the Worm Hole" hosted by Morgan Freeman. I can't remember the name of the episode, it may be on "On Demand" on my Comcast cable, I'll look and see if I can find it.

 

Thanks for the link erik, interesting reading....

 

This is the issue with the West ignoring, stalling, and/or prohibiting stem cell research. Pandora's box has been opened and many people around the world want to cash in on this new form of treatment.

 

I just stumbled on this website : https://www.stemgent.com/applications/reprogramming

It's a company that patented a virus free system for adult stem cell reprogramming, seems like their product could help a lot because as some of you may know, reprogramming using a virus like the sendai virus is long and not effecient, plus it's not always 100% safe...

and the company is held by high profile doctors from the MIT their website is interesting and it may be of interst for those into stem cells !

 

@James White Great find!

The company's Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) is very interesting. Among the different interests represented--from academic medicine such as Harvard--is big Pharma. Specifically, Pfizer's Chief Operating Officer of Regenerative Medicine is also a member. That division, though downsized in 2011, is still active in stem cell research through their Neursentis unit. But I don't see any research into hair cell regeneration sponsored by Pfizer. With the recent advances in hair cell regeneration, however, it's hard to believe Pfizer will ignore it in the future, given their commitment to regenerative medicine.

@James White

Any chance of mailing the company boeard and asking them if theyd be interested in finding a way out for hearing loss and tinnitus

 

they're just a techmed company, they don't do anything for disease reseearch

my guestion is : if this treatment results are true can this treatment work for everyone who have diverse cases end up with hearing disorders?

 

Chloe's Sohl story has been all over the web, is it true or not... hard to tell. Still it's an isolated case and RNL Bio's reputation is nothing near any university research grade.
