Genetics co. stock up after Jolie’s testing
A Utah-based genetics testing firm saw its shares rise yesterday after A-list actress Angelina Jolie went public with her preventive double mastectomy. While Jolie, 37, did not disclose the maker of the test that showed she had a BRCA1 gene mutation and thus an 87 percent risk of getting breast cancer Myriad Genetics holds patents on two genes linked to the disease. Its close to 100 percent (Jolie) took a Myriad test, said Kristen Shannon, director of genetic counseling at Massachusetts General Hospital Continue reading

Cell therapy a little more concrete thanks to VIB research
Public release date: 21-Feb-2013 [ | E-mail | Share ] Contact: Sooike Stoops sooike.stoops@vib.be 32-924-46611 VIB (the Flanders Institute for Biotechnology) Cell therapy is a promising alternative to tissue and organ transplantation for diseases that are caused by death or poor functioning of cells. Considering the ethical discussions surrounding human embryonic stem cells, a lot is expected of the so-called ‘induced pluripotent stem cells’ (iPS cells). However, before this technique can be applied effectively, a lot of research is required into the safety and efficacy of such iPS cells Continue reading

Cheap and easy technique to snip DNA could revolutionize gene therapy
Jan. 7, 2013 A simple, precise and inexpensive method for cutting DNA to insert genes into human cells could transform genetic medicine, making routine what now are expensive, complicated and rare procedures for replacing defective genes in order to fix genetic disease or even cure AIDS. Discovered last year by Jennifer Doudna and Martin Jinek of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and University of California, Berkeley, and Emmanuelle Charpentier of the Laboratory for Molecular Infection Medicine-Sweden, the technique was labeled a “tour de force” in a 2012 review in the journal Nature Biotechnology.
