Results Our artificial antigen-presenting cells expanded both polyclonal T cells and MART-1-specific CD8+ T cells in a more efficient manner than the other systems. Stimulation with artificial antigen-presenting cells allows for the generation of viable T cells displaying an immunophenotype consistent with in vivo potential for persistence, without increasing the frequency of regulatory T cells. The starting specificity of anti MART-1 CD8+ T cells was preserved after stimulation with artificial antigen-presenting cells and it was statistically greater when compared to the activity of the same cells expanded with the other systems. Finally, our artificial antigen-presenting cells proved to be suitable for large-scale application, minimizing the volume and the costs of T-cell expansion. ...

The Vatican had praise Saturday for this weeks announcement that scientists had created the worlds first synthetic cell, calling it an interesting result that could help cure disease.

A proposed solution to this problem is the idea of Encapsulated Cell Therapy (Galletti, 1995). It basically works as follows: The cells used can be either human or other animal cells. These cells are genetically altered to produce whatever it is that is needed in the body (insulin, other needed proteins, hormones, etc.). The cells are then protected from the immune system in a very clever capsule system made of a polymer material. This polymer has specially designed pores that are large enough to allow the desired excretion of therapeutic substances, but small enough to keep out the bodys immune system. In effect, we have a cybernetic system here, in which an isolated colony of foreign cells lives, protected, inside the humans system. This colony feeds off of the humans blood, and excretes its wastes and its specially designed products into the humans circulatory system.. There are other applications for this type of technology such as pain control systems and treatment of otherwise ...

This study investigated the effect of the biochemical and biophysical properties of the plasma membrane as well as membrane morphology on the susceptibility of human red blood cells to the cholesterol-dependent cytolysin pneumolysin, a key virulence factor of Streptococcus pneumoniae, using single cell studies. We show a correlation between the physical properties of the membrane (bending rigidity, surface and dipole electrostatic potentials) and the susceptibility of red blood cells to pneumolysin-induced haemolysis. We demonstrate that biochemical modifications of the membrane induced by oxidative stress, lipid scrambling and artificial cell aging modulate the cell response to the toxin. We provide evidence that the diversity of response to pneumolysin in diabetic red blood cells correlates with levels of glycated haemoglobin (Hba1c) and that the mechanical properties of the red blood cell plasma membrane are altered in diabetes. Finally, we show that diabetic red blood cells are more ...

While these patents have yet to be granted, the claim shows the extent to which some synthetic biologists are testing the limits in the battle to control the fundamental building blocks of life and actual living organisms. While it is likely this specific patent applications scope will be limited to cover only bacterial cells, such a patent would still grant Venter and company an exclusive license to create synthetic fuel-producing bacteria and the tools to create such organisms. Conveniently, Venters company, Synthetic Genomics, has contracts with both Exxon Mobile and BP to produce next-generation biofuels from synthetic cells (or at least genetically engineered cells that contain synthetic DNA sequences ...

Group Website: http://www.littlelab.pitt.edu/ Researchers in the Little Labs seek to develop new and innovative medical treatments by mimicking living cells, tissues, and organs through engineering principles. Specifically, current research relates to the rational design and fabrication of drug delivery systems from nanoparticles, microparticles, hollow fibers, gels, and coatings. This is accomplished using some of the first mathematical models capable of predicting controlled release from systems composed of biodegradable polymers using simple parameters such as polymer chemistry, fabrication, and drug type from proteins, to peptides, to DNA, to small molecules. Further, surface modification is being used through microfabrication and nanotechnology to produce synthetic cells and tissues that can communicate like living biological entities. In this way, researchers in the Little Labs aim to produce medicine that imitates life. This work has application to the fields of regenerative medicine ...

Worlds first synthetic cells: J Craig Venter Institute (JCVI) via BBC News. Later Venters lab distinguished itself by building a small bacteriums genome with man-made DNA fragments, piece by piece - another milestone. It was both milestone achievements that, combined, led the team to the synthetic cell disclosed today. The researchers started out by combining two small species of Mycoplasma with a chemically synthesized goat germ genome, and finally transplanted that into a living cell from a different Mycoplasma species. The team encountered an obstacle here and they eventually had to spell check (!) the DNA fragments of the synthetic genome to make sure there were no errors. The delay in the achievement of their goal was about three months, but finally, they learned the spell checker found a typo in the genetic code!. Once it was fixed, the synthetic DNA and its cytoplasm, having been tagged to distinguish it from the DNA of the natural Mycoplasma, started to produce its own proteins. ...

So Craig Venter has created the first synthetic cell, but should he be able to patent it? The short answer is yes. But his patent applications are too broad.

The final goal is the construction of a vesicular system that contain the minimal and sufficient number of genes and other components to be defined as living (self-sustaining + self-reproduction + evolvability).

Netrukus po tėvo mirties, Dizzy šeima pervažiavo į Filadelfiją. Ten vaikinukas nuo 18-os grojo įvairiuose bigbenduose. Viename iš orkestrų jis pakeitė ten grojusį savo „dievaitį Roy Eldridge, kuris išvyko į Niujorką. Po kelerių metų (20-ies) į Niujorką išvyko ir pats Gillespie, kur trumpai grojo Cab Calloway bigbende (karjera ten greitai baigėsi, nes konflikto su Cab Calloway metu Dizzy jam įpjovė peiliu...). Galiausiai Dizzy vėl viename bigbende pakeitė tą patį Roy Eldridge. Siekis prilygti vyresnįajam kolegai, nuolatos vertė lavinti smulkių natų ir aukšto registro techniką. Pastangos nenueidavo veltui - Eldridge rekomenduodavo jauną trimitininką geriems džiazo orkestrams ne tik kaip puikų trimitininką, bet ir pradedantį džiazo kompozitorių. Gillespie kurį laiką grojo Chik Webb orkestre kur tuo metu dainavo Ella Fitzgerald. ...

AU - Glatter, Otto. AU - Tsuchida, Eishun. PY - 2009/6/18. Y1 - 2009/6/18. N2 - Hemoglobin vesicle (HbV) is an artificial oxygen carrier that encapsulates solution of purified and highly concentrated (ca. 38 g dL-1) human hemoglobin. Its exceptionally high concentration as a liposomal product (ca. 40% volume fraction) achieves an oxygen-carrying capacity comparable to that of blood. We use small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) to investigate the hierarchical structures and dynamics of HbVs in concentrated suspensions. SAXS data revealed unilamellar shell structure and internal density profile of the artificial cell membrane for Hb encapsulation. The SAXS intensity of HbV at scattering vector q , 0.5 nm-1 manifests dissolution states of the encapsulated Hbs in the inner ...

Synthetic biology is a highly interdisciplinary field, which combines biology, chemistry and physics with engineering. Its goal is to design molecular factories and synthetic cells with novel properties or functions for applications in healthcare, industry, or biological and medical research. Such artificial systems are in the nanometer scale and are built by combining and assembling existing, synthetic or engineered building blocks (e.g., proteins). Molecular systems have wide application ranges, e.g., for chemical compound synthesis, waste disposal, energy supply and medical diagnosis or treatment.. In this context, the NCCR Molecular Systems Engineering brings Swiss scientists from different disciplines together to stimulate innovation, and address existing and future challenges. The University of Bern is represented by the Fotiadis laboratory in the NCCR MSE.. Nanomachines for energy conversion. Energy-providing building blocks are essential to power molecular systems. Light-driven proton ...

The production of artificial life is supposedly just around the corner. But ever since the famous 1953 Miller and Urey experiment failed to spark life in the laboratory just from chemicals, that corner has proven painstakingly long to get around.. In August, biologist Craig Venter of the J. Craig Venter Institute in Maryland was reported as predicting that artificial life is just months away.1 His team had cloned, added to, and modified the DNA of a simple bacterium called Mycoplasma mycoides (a prokaryote).. The complex procedure they used involved taking plasmid sequences from yeast (eukaryote) and adding them to the Mycoplasma chromosome. This engineered chromosome was swapped for the yeast genome, making a reproducing, yeast-like bacterium. This series of steps promises to expedite the transfer of an artificially synthesized genome into a cell. Researcher Sanjay Vashee said that his team had achieved a major advance in our effort to create a synthetic cell.1. A number of questions, ...

A large selection of MEM formulations. Minimum Essential Medium (MEM), developed by Harry Eagle, is one of the most widely used of all synthetic cell culture media.

In the early 1940s in Norway, while on the run from the Nazis, Wilhelm Reich was observing, via high-magnification microscopy, the disintegration of organic materials into small energy vesicles, which he called bions. These bions, upon further observation and as documented with time-lapse movies, would organize themselves into basic life forms such as amoeba and paramecia. Various control procedures, involving high temperature, pressurized sterilization, demonstrated the reality of this natural organization of protozoa. Reich came to believe that life did not originate only in some ancient, dark corner of history, but that life is being recreated every day, right under our noses, through the specific process of bionous disintegration and reorganization. He observed bions develop not only from organic materials, but also from inorganic materials as well. Before and since Reich, other scientists have also discovered what Reich called bions, giving them other names. However, Reich had one of the ...

Video - Lynn Hoffman (social worker, link) talks about a shift that has been taking place in our world, a shift that simmered in the background for many years and has recently erupted onto the world stage. This shift is akin to a revolution, and often gives a renewed impetus to contemporary revolutionary movements. The shift is related to what Lynn sees as a move from the system metaphor, with its emphasis on symmetry, order and a return to the same, to the rhizome with its more messy and horizontal plane of endless relations.. Gregory Bateson and the Rhizome Century is an interdisciplinary event inspired by the vision of family therapy pioneer, Lynn Hoffman. The conference is for anyone who: Appreciates the pressing significance of honoring the complexities of our interrelations with one another, with nature, and also with our technologies; Understands that a primary responsibility for our generation is to move beyond the individualisms and negations so prominent in Western thought, towards ...

All cells share a universal, minimal set of biochemical processes, essential to all life. The search for defining this minimal set has lead to the synthetic assembly of the first minimal cell, JCVI-syn3.0: a cell with only 473 genes, the bare minimum requirements for independent cellular life. Its genetic basis was Mycoplasma mycoides; the Mycoplasmas have long been of interest to investigate fundamentals of life due to their evolutionarily reduced genomes, and at the same time represent an important class of pathogens, implicated in diseases such as pneumonia, urogenital diseases and certain types of cancer. Thus, JCVI-syn3.0 constitutes a platform to study the function of every gene that is essential for cellular life, and provides simultaneously a prototype for investigating cellular networks in a number of pathogens. The small (sub-micrometer) size and simple genome of JCVI-syn3.0, together with the timely availability of proteomics and cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) data in progress, ...

Organic chemistry has systematically probed the chemical determinants of function in nucleic acids by variation to the nucleobase, sugar ring and backbone moieties to build synthetic genetic polymers. Concomitantly, protein engineering has advanced to allow the discovery of polymerases capable of utilizing modified nucleotide analogs. A conjunction of these two lines of investigation in nucleotide chemistry and molecular biology has given rise to a new field of synthetic genetics dedicated to th

In this Selected Issues in Depth section we look at two issues. First, Dr John Glass, from the J. Craig Venter Institute, talks about key research in synthetic biology, the creation of synthetic organisms, and the contribution this research might make to medicine. He also considers some ethical and policy issues that will be central to future work in synthetic biology - and to the perception of future work in synthetic biology. Heres a link to Dr Glasss page at JCVI: http://www.jcvi.org/cms/about/bios/jglass . Second, Dr Tim Devarenne of Texas A&M University talks about the potential for using transgenic organisms to produce biofuels. (Heres a link to his lab page: http://devarennelab.tamu.edu/ ). Our first speaker, then, is Dr John Glass. Dr Glass begins our discussion of synthetic biology by outlining how DNA is used to understand cellular life. His argument is that if we can understand what factors are important in the construction and maintenance of whats called minimal

Dr. Barry Gillespie discovered the Craniosacral Fascial System, which consists of a slight motion of the brain and spinal cord pumping cerebrospinal fluid into the fascial web that connects every structural cell of the body. When physical and/or emotional traumas adversely tighten this freely moving system, tremendous pressure can be exerted on associated nerves, muscles, organs, blood vessels, lymph vessels and bones. Profound effects on body function may result as a major cause of health conditions. Read more about Gillespie Approach-Craniosacral Fascial Therapy and Dr. Barry Gillespie.. ...

Despite a rapidly accumulating clinical experience with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) as a treatment for severe refractory autoimmune disease, data on the mechanisms by which ASCT induces immune tolerance are still very scarce. In this study it is shown that ASCT restores immunologic self-tolerance in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) via 2 mechanisms. First, ASCT induces a restoration of the frequency of FoxP3 expressing CD4+CD25bright regulatory T cells (Tregs) from severely reduced numbers before ASCT to normal levels after ASCT. This recovery is due to a preferential homeostatic expansion of CD4+CD25+ Tregs during the lymphopenic phase of immunereconstitution, as measured by Ki67 and CD44 expression, and to a renewed thymopoiesis of naive mRNA FoxP3 expressing CD4+CD25+ Tregs after ASCT. Second, using artificial antigen-presenting cells to specifically isolate self-reactive T cells, we demonstrate that ASCT induces autoimmune cells to deviate from a proinflammatory phenotype ...

Replicators are fundamental to the origin of life and evolvability. Their survival depends on the accuracy of replication and the efficiency of growth relative to spontaneous decay. Infrabiological systems are built of two coupled autocatalytic systems, in contrast to minimal living systems that must comprise at least a metabolic subsystem, a hereditary subsystem and a boundary, serving respective functions. Some scenarios prefer to unite all these functions into one primordial system, as illustrated in the lipid world scenario, which is considered as a didactic example in detail. Experimentally produced chemical replicators grow parabolically owing to product inhibition. A selection consequence is survival of everybody. The chromatographized replicator model predicts that such replicators spreading on surfaces can be selected for higher replication rate because double strands are washed away slower than single strands from the surface. Analysis of real ribozymes suggests that the error ...
