RPT-Arctic ice thinned dramatically since 2004 - NASA
ScienceDaily (July 8, 2009) — Scientists have identified a gene that is essential for embryonic stem cells to maintain their all-purpose, pluripotent state. Exploiting the finding may lead to a greater understanding of how cells acquire their specialized states and provide a strategy to efficiently reprogram mature cells back into the pluripotent state, an elusive step in stem cell research but one crucial to a range of potential clinical treatments.

ScienceDaily (July 2, 2009) — A molecule called telomerase, best known for enabling unlimited cell division of stem cells and cancer cells, has a surprising additional role in the expression of genes in an important stem cell regulatory pathway, say researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine. The unexpected finding may lead to new anticancer therapies and a greater understanding of how adult and embryonic stem cells divide and specialize.

Stem cell treatment gives hope to Crohn's disease sufferers
Northern California biotech Geron made history this year when it received FDA approval to test its stem cell therapy in people with spinal cord injuries. Now that the federal ban on using government money to support embryonic stem cell research has been lifted, local scientists hope to see their early stage research reach the clinic, too.
Before the federal government decides on the process for approving applicants, the state will begin loaning money to for-profit biotechs with promising new applications for stem cell research.
