NeoStem, Inc. (NYSE:NBS ("NeoStem" or the "Company"), an emerging leader in the fast growing cell therapy industry, today announced that it has been awarded a two year grant totaling $1,221,854 for "Repair of Bone Defects with Human Autologous Pluripotent Very Small Embryonic-Like Stem Cells (VSEL)", grant number 2R44DE022493-02A1, from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), a division of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This peer reviewed grant is to support a Phase 2 investigation and first approved NIH clinical study of VSELsTM in humans. The study will be headed by Denis O. Rodgerson, Ph.D., Director of Grants and Academic Liaison for NeoStem, in collaboration with co-investigators Drs. Russell Taichman and Laurie McCauley of the University of Michigan. Enrollment for this study is expected to begin in 2013.

This award will fund the evaluation of VSELTM stem cells as a potential treatment for periodontitis. The product candidate, an autologous therapy derived from a patient's own stem cells, is to be developed for use in the regeneration of bone tissue damaged by this disease. The award includes $706,682 for the first year and $515,172 for the second year of the project, and will cover the cost of the Investigational New Drug (IND) submission to the FDA for the product candidate.

Dr. Denis O. Rodgerson, Director of Grants and Academic Liaison for NeoStem, said, "We are pleased and honored that NIH has agreed to support further studies on bone regeneration by using VSELTM stem cells. This is an extension of our successful NIH funded collaboration with Dr. Taichman showing the production of human bone from human VSELsTM in a mouse model."

Periodontal disease is prevalent in the U.S. and affects up to 90% of the world population. The most severe cases of periodontal disease affect between 5% and 15% of the U.S. population, or between 15 and 47 million Americans. The incidence of periodontal disease is estimated to be between 1 and 3 million Americans annually, and growing at a 7% rate each year. Studies have shown that periodontal inflammation could have a role in the initiation or progression of coronary heart disease and stroke. Market research experts have estimated that severe periodontal disease represents a market between $1.25 and $1.5 billion annually.

Dr. Russell Taichman, Major Ash Collegiate Professor and Co-Director of the Scholars Program in Dental Leadership, Department of Periodontics & Oral Medicine, University of Michigan stated, "I am thrilled for the possibilities that this award opens. The chance to continue to partner with NeoStem to further develop regenerative therapies is significant. The validation that this award brings and the opportunity to establish a proof of concept, which may impact human health, is truly rewarding." Dr. Laurie McCauley, The William K. and Mary Anne Najjar Professor, Division of Periodontics Department of Periodontics and Oral Medicine, University of Michigan added, "This novel cell based therapeutic approach looks to validate scientifically sound pre-clinical studies and provide a vital translation to improved human patient care."

NeoStem has a worldwide exclusive license to VSEL technology which uses very small embryonic-like stem cells, a heterogeneous population of stem cells found in adult bone marrow that have properties similar to those of embryonic stem cells. NeoStem has shown that very small embryonic-like stem cells can be mobilized into the peripheral blood, enabling a minimally invasive means for collecting what it believes to be an important population of stem cells that may have the potential to achieve the positive benefits associated with embryonic stem cells without the ethical or moral dilemmas or the potential negative biological effects associated with embryonic stem cells.

Dr. Robin L. Smith, Chairman and CEO of NeoStem, added, "We are very excited about this important step of funding for what will be the first human clinical study for our VSELTM technology. Not only will this study expand our knowledge of how autologous cell therapy can treat periodontitis and other bone defects, but it represents a milestone for NeoStem as we move our development of VSELTM technology beyond animal models and into the clinic, paving the way for other potential VSELTM trials."

NeoStem Receives Notification Of $1.2 million NIH Grant Award For First Clinical Study Of VSELTM Technology In Humans

MANILA, Philippines - A ranking official of the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) considers immoral the embryonic stem cell therapy reportedly being used by politicians and actors for aesthetic purposes.

In an interview with Radio Veritas, CBCP-Episcopal Commission on Bioethics Chairman and Malolos Bishop Jose Oliveros said this medical procedure is against the belief of the Church. He said they are still assessing if the same could be said for stem cells from animals.

Pero yung sinasabi nila na pampabata sa mga politician at celebrities na sumailalim sa stem cell therapy ay immoral. Puwede namang ma-improve ang mukha ng isang tao, but it should be moral. Kapag gumamit ka ng immoral ay mali na yun, he said.

Embryo is still a maturing fetus.

He said the CBCP will come out with a pastoral statement regarding the matter once they are able to clarify certain matters with the Department of Health (DOH).

The DOH earlier warned people from using stem cells from aborted babies and human embryos.

The Philippine government will not allow the use of aborted fetuses or human embryosThere is a need to ensure that the biological raw materials are documented and validated and follow infection-free procedures, the DOH earlier said.

There is also a need to know if the materials to be injected came from animal or human tissues, it added.

SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwire - Nov 19, 2012) - Medistem ( PINKSHEETS : MEDS ) announced today appointment of Alexander Gershman, MD, Ph.D to the company's Scientific Advisory Board.Dr. Gershman is an internationally-renowned opinion leader in urological surgery having pioneered numerous minimally invasive procedures using laparoscopic techniques.

"The future of regenerative medicine lies not only in having the best stem cell product, but also being able to practically deliver it in a manner that can be integrated into existing medical practice,"said Dr. Alan Lewis, CEO of Medistem. "Through working with respected physicians such as Dr. Gershman, our aim is to develop novel delivery methods so that our cellular product can be utilized in numerous disciplines."

Medistem is currently running a Phase II clinical trial in heart failure patients using its Endometrial Regenerative Cell (ERC) product delivered through a 30-minute minimally invasive patent pending procedure.The company seeks to develop similar minimally invasive procedures for the field of urology in collaboration with Dr. Gershman.

"It is obvious that stem cell medicine is the future of medicine.Although great strides have occurred in clinical entry of stem cells, a major hurdle to commercialization is practical implementation,"said Dr. Gershman. "I commend Medistem for having discovered what appears to be the most potent blood vessel generating stem cell, the ERC, as well as having the foresight to think practically about optimum methods of delivery."

Dr. Gershman is one of the first surgeons in the world to apply the method of laparoscopic surgery and robotic-assisted surgery to urology.He currently holds numerous hospital appointments, including the following: Director of Institute of Advanced Urology at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center; Director of Urologic Laparoscopy in the Division of Urology, Harbor-UCLA Medical Center; Head of Endourology Division, Department of Surgery, VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System; Attending Surgeon, Laparoscopic Renal Transplant Surgery, St. Mary Medical Center; Attending Surgeon at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center; and Attending Surgeon at the Harbor-UCLA Medical Center.

What Are Stem Cells and Stem Cell Therapy Stemenhance
http://www.stemcellproduct.net This video gives you the definition, facts, and understanding on what are stem cells, that there are two of them embryonic and adult stem cells, how they work and the uses of stem cell when the tissue is affected in your body and how messengers signal the bone marrow to release adult stem cells to help in the repair of the injured tissue. Why this information is exciting for me to do a video is because I see stemcells as the best way of how to produce optimal health in your body. The way I look at it is that optimal health equals the number of healthy cells in your body and the only way the body repairs a damaged area is by creating and sending adult stem cells to that area. That #39;s why I #39;m introducing a stem cell product from a nutrition company who patented a stem cell enhancer which supports the release of adult stem cells. What will also excite you too is that Stemtech (the stemcell company) has also come out with two other products that will also optimize the circulation of these stem cells and other nutrients and aid in the ability for them to move and migrate into the affected tissue where they can transform and duplicate into fresh, healthy new cell tissue. So in my eyes having products like these will help anyone in my pursuit of health and wellness. I know it #39;s helping me strengthening my cells in my body after being diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome 20 plus years ago because I know how important nutrition and cell help to gain my ...From:Jennifer MarksViews:1 0ratingsTime:06:37More inHowto Style

Yoshiki Sasai is not just an ordinary tissue engineer who tries to coax stem cells to grow into fully formed bodily structures. It is true that Sasai has made his mark by taking on big projects like using stem cells to whip up a retina, cortical tissue and the cerebellum, involved with balance and movement. But his research has gone deeper by delving into the way stem cells organize themselves into complex structures under the influence of genes and the prenatal environment.

In the womb, a ball of identical cells gives rise to varied cell types that ultimately form highly ordered structures and then the full panoply of organs in the human body. The process advances according to an internal biological script that directs each fold and crease of tissue to assume exactly the proper shape and dimension.

The California stem cell agency said
today it does not plan to reactivate the $25 million loan to assist
in Geron's spinal injury clinical trial despite an impending deal that would turn the effort over to BioTime, Inc.

“That (earlier) loan was specific to
Geron and when the trial was ended the loan ended too. Of course if
Biotime and Geron do complete their deal then Biotime would be free
to apply to us for a new disease team grant.”

Geron Corp., which once pioneered human
embryonic stem cell research, is close to selling off its hESC business in a complicated deal involving two former CEOs of the company and
BioTime, Inc., of Alameda, Ca.

“ BioTime would contribute
to BAC $5 million in cash, $30 million of BioTime common
shares, warrants to purchase eight (8) million common shares
of BioTime at a pre-specified price, rights to use certain
human embryonic stem cell lines, and minority stakes in two of
BioTime’s subsidiaries. In addition, a private investor would
invest $5 million in cash in BAC. 

“Following consummation of the
potential transaction, Geron stockholders would receive
shares representing 21.4% of the common stock of BAC as well as
warrants to purchase 8 million shares of BioTime common
stock at a pre-specified price. BioTime would own
approximately 71.6%, and a private investor would own approximately
7.0% of the outstanding BAC common stock for their $5
million investment. BioTime would also receive
warrants that would enable it to increase its ownership in BAC by
approximately 2%, which would reduce the Geron stockholders’
ownership in BAC to 19.2%. BAC would also be committed to pay
to Geron royalties on the sale of products that are
commercialized in reliance upon Geron patents acquired by
BAC.”

“The offer couldn’t come at a
better time for Geron, which in recent months has started to feel
pressure from its shareholders to boost its stock price and move
products through the pipeline. Since last November, when the company
announced its decision to shutter its hESC and regenerative medicine
business and funnel its resources into developing telomerase-related
treatments for cancer, the stock price has dropped more than 50
percent to $1.30 a share. Geron claimed the move was simply to save
money, but many took the decision—which effectively terminated a
clinical trial of an hESC treatment for spinal cord injury—as a
setback for the entire field." 

News coverage of yesterday's
announcement was light. Here is a link to a piece by Ryan McBride on
Fierce Biotech.

For Dr. Robert Janson-Mller, the science of fresh cell therapy is in his blood.

His grandfather, Dr. Philipp Janson was one of the few doctors who introduced the treatment in Germany. His father, Dr. Wolfgang Janson-Mller continued the work that was eventually passed on to him.

He was exposed to the revolutionary world of fresh cell therapy early on in life. The treatment uses live young cells from a donor animal like sheep to help regenerate damaged cells in the body. Dr. Mller practically grew up in his grandfather and father's clinic where he met the former's patients, some of whom still go to him for their regular treatments.

''A child always wants to grow up like his father and do the same thing. My father left it open for me. He told me I could do whatever I want, the same thing I am doing now for my daughter. I'm also head of a clinic in Munich. This is what I do besides cell treatment. We have a family practice. That is my main job,'' shares the 46-year-old German doctor who recently visited the Philippines to acquaint Filipinos with the science of fresh cell therapy.

Dr. Mller, who owns a fresh cell therapy laboratory and works as head doctor of Med Activ clinic in Munich, says that despite the growing market for it in America and Asia, there are only five doctors in Germany practicing the science. The treatment is known to deter degenerative diseases such as arthrosis, rheumatism and neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis. But it is most popular as an anti-aging treatment. Recently, it has also been used to treat children with autism and Down syndrome.

Yet, Dr. Mller points out that fresh cell therapy is not a miracle cure for aging or these diseases. Some bodies accept the treatment while some don't. And, it doesn't treat every disease known to mankind.

Nevertheless, patients from all over the world still flock to his private clinic at the Prinzregent Hotel in Edenkoben, Germany to avail themselves of the treatment, which does not come cheap. One session would cost about $12,000 or R624,000.

''I don't treat patients with cancer, tuberculosis, AIDS, or those who are pregnant. We don't treat patients with acute inflammations like appendicitis. Aside from that, I need to see if it makes sense. If I don't see a possibility, I say no,'' he explains.

In this 60 Minutes interview, Dr. Mller shares how fresh cell therapy really works and how it can take more than just one, two, 20, 60 or even 100 treatments to get it right. Some may start as young as eight months old or continue the treatment at 99 years old. This just proves that a patient is never too young nor too old for this revolutionary treatment. (Angelo G. Garcia)

STUDENTS AND CAMPUSES BULLETIN (SCB): A lot of people are confused about the difference between stem cell and fresh cell therapy.
