Blandad kompott

Stig har mejlat över vår nye styrelsemedlems visdomsord taget från hanses Linkedinsida. VD för Altium Goran Dubravcic som nu formellt valts in i PHI`s styrelse. 
Han delar min syn på att HoloMonitor kommer vara central för Reg Med åratal framöver.Smart kille.
It is my honor to share with you that this week at extraordinary general meeting of Phase Holographic Imaging I was elected as a new board member. In upcoming days, months, and years it will be privilege to work closely with top professionals, my colleagues board members, to maximize shareholders value by achieving our vision – to become fundamental player in regenerative medicine and standard for science professionals that work in the world of cells!  

VD-Patrik hälsar Goran välkommen med dessa ord :

I am very satisfied that Goran will join the PHI board as he shares our vision that our none invasive technology can make a big impact on making regenerative medicine affordable, accessible and patient-safe. Besides that, his knowledge of sales and marketing will be very valuable on our road to improving global sales on our existing and future products.

För att fortsätta på Altiumspåret ser det ut som att vi redan nu får konkreta exempel på att PHI får tillgång till Altiums försäljningskanaler. Tjeckiska KRD,en återförsäljare av labbutrustning, har tagit in HoloMonitor i sin produktkatalog



Inom Reg Med sektorn kommer det löpande info om nya upptäckter att behandla svåra sjukdomar. Jag tar inte upp dem i detta inlägg. Kanske i en senare postning. Dock väljer jag ut ett litet sidospår som följt av all uppmärksamhet kring Reg Med. Forskare vid UCLA Broad Stem Cell Research Center har vid sina studier om stamceller hittat tecken på att stamceller har förmågan att "piggna" på sig även om bäraren kommit upp i ålder. Forskaren Thomas Rando m kollegor har motionerat äldre labbmöss till riktiga träningsfreak och sett hur träningen påverkat bildandet av nya stamceller.

- The study found that regular exercise reduced inflammation in mice, specifically in groups of stem cells in the blood, brain and muscle. In particular, older mice experienced inflammation reduction in skeletal muscle and restoration of communication between cells, the latter of which is vital for cell development and function.
“You can start, even in old age, the function of stem cells,” Rando said. “We end up concluding that, if these studies are generalizable, then we see that exercising old mice would also be applicable to humans.” 

Exercise reprograms the inflammatory landscape of multiple stem cell compartments during mammalian aging

Summary
Exercise has the ability to rejuvenate stem cells and improve tissue regeneration in aging animals. However, the cellular and molecular changes elicited by exercise have not been systematically studied across a broad range of cell types in stem cell compartments. We subjected young and old mice to aerobic exercise and generated a single-cell transcriptomic atlas of muscle, neural, and hematopoietic stem cells with their niche cells and progeny, complemented by whole transcriptome analysis of single myofibers. We found that exercise ameliorated the upregulation of a number of inflammatory pathways associated with old age and restored aspects of intercellular communication mediated by immune cells within these stem cell compartments. Exercise has a profound impact on the composition and transcriptomic landscape of circulating and tissue-resident immune cells. Our study provides a comprehensive view of the coordinated responses of multiple aged stem cells and niche cells to exercise at the transcriptomic level.

UCLA study investigates link between exercise and stem cell restoration

Affärstidningen Forbes har intervjuat tidigare VD för Google, Eric Schmidt, som nu sadlat om och är en stark förepråkare för den amerikanska biotech-sektorn.

Why Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt Is Betting Big On The $1T US Bioeconomy

After being at the helm for over a decade of internet juggernaut Google, former CEO Eric Schmidt has switched gears and one of his latest activities is being an advocate for the fast-growing US bioeconomy, which is valued at over $1T.

In biotech, companies like Genentech and BioNTech have demonstrated how years of lab research can turn into solutions that scale to serve billions.

“I think it’s time. It’s time to take the work of the last 10 or 20 years and make it scale to a global phenomenon that is 4-30 trillion dollars. You all will do that. That’s why I’m here.” Schmidt explained to a packed house.

Interestingly, Schmidt made it clear that to stop local companies from outsourcing their operations, the US needs to build a national, shared infrastructure that boosts the domestic bioeconomy. Put another way, the US needs to build an official governmental home for bioeconomy interests.

From a regulatory standpoint, the Bioeconomy Executive Order put into place by the Biden administration last September will systematically shift how the US coordinates and strategically advances its bioeconomy goals toward multiple objectives, including carbon management, economic development, biosecurity, biosafety, and the workforce of the future.

“One can hope that these actions will include a deliberate focus on moving engineering biology discoveries from lab to market, helping new technology developers through new loan programs for biomanufacturing infrastructure, as well as through newly streamlined, clear regulatory processes,” Schmidt remarked. /

Och slutligen en ny forskningsrapport som berättar att forskare från Taiwan hittat nya sätt att behandla en magcancer. Det genom ett flitigt användande av sitt HoloMonitor-instrument vid studier hur en kombination av diabetesläkemedlet Metformin och Lansoprazole, kan få cancerceller att stanna upp från att utvecklas till ett riktigt elände.

Synergistic Effect of Metformin and Lansoprazole Against Gastric Cancer through Growth Inhibition

Abstract
Cancer has been linked to metabolic disorders and diverse gene mutations. Metformin, which is widely used to treat type 2 diabetes, inhibits the growth of cancer cells in animal models. Here we investigated the effects of metformin on human gastric cancer cell lines. We also investigated the synergistic anticancer effect of metformin and proton pump inhibitors. Lansoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, is effective for treating gastroesophageal reflux disease. Our results revealed that metformin and lansoprazole can significantly inhibit cancer cell growth in a dose-dependent manner by suppressing cell cycle progression and inducing apoptosis. Low concentrations of metformin and lansoprazole have a synergistic effect on AGS cell growth inhibition. In summary, our findings suggest a new and safe treatment protocol for treating stomach cancers.



Cell morphology

To observe the real-time images of the cells after drug treatment, we captured time-lapse images using HoloMonitor M4 (Phase Holographic Imaging AB, Lund, Sweden). The cells were seeded in a 6-well plate at 5000 cells/well and incubated overnight. On the next day, the plate with hololid were placed on the HoloMonitor M4 after the drugs were added. The cell images were recorded every 20 min for 72 h. Finally, the holographic images were analyzed using the HoloMonitor M4 application program.

Min kommentar
Cancerforskning och HoloMonitor. Har jag skrivit vad jag anser om den kombon? 😎
Nu har vi fått fakta om att när forskarna testade olika läkemedel på en cancer,och följde utvecklingen via HoloMonitor, kom de fram till ett helt nytt sätt att ha ihjäl dessa förbaskade små cancerceller. Instrumentet är banne mig ett måste för världens alla cancerforskare, är min åsikt. Men det vet ni säkert redan.
