Cell Isolation Market overview, share, key players and forecast report by 2023 edited by leading research firm – WhaTech Technology and Markets News

Posted: March 26, 2020 at 8:43 pm

The global cell isolation market is projected to generate $12.6 billion revenue by 2023 by P&S Intelligence.

The primary factors propelling the cell isolation market to prosperity are the increasing demand for biopharmaceuticals, funding by the government for cell-based research, and rising number of studies on personalized medicine. The market, which generated a revenue of $4.6 billion in 2017, is predicted to progress at an 18.8% CAGR during 20182023 (forecast period), to ultimately value $12.6 billion by 2023.

For diagnostic testing and disease prognosis, cells of various types are identified and extracted from the body.

Download sample copy of this report@ http://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-ort-sample

Based on type, the cell isolation market is bifurcated into animal and human cells, of which animal cells held the larger revenue share in 2017. Animal cells, primarily those derived from mice, are heavily used in drug development to study the preliminary efficacy, toxicity, and pharmacokinetics of new drug molecules.

During the forecast period, faster growth would be witnessed by the human cell bifurcation, at a CAGR of 19.9%, owing to the rapid enhancements in the stem cell technology, which is being utilized to treat numerous diseases.

The use of biopharmaceuticals for the early detection of various cancers is leading to the cell isolation market growth. Such molecules, especially those isolated from proteins, are also being rapidly utilized in the treatment of melanoma and chronic myelogenous leukemia.

The antigens and abnormal pathways associated with these conditions are now being targeted with mAbs. With the increasing awareness of people about the advantages of such products in the treatment of cancer, their usage is rising, which, in turn, is leading to the surging adoption of cell isolation for their production.

Inquiry at@ http://www.psmarketresearch.com/send-enion-market

In 2017, North America was the largest cell isolation market across the world, with an around 38.0% revenue share. This was because a large number of biotechnology and pharmaceutical organizations, academic institutions, and research laboratories, which use the technique, are present in the region.

During the forecast period, Asia-Pacific (APAC) is expected to observe the fastest growth, at a 22.1% CAGR, due to the rising focus on applied and basic medical research here, especially in India and China, where a number of institutes dedicated to cell-based research have been founded.

Thus, with the surging requirement for biopharmaceuticals, especially those needed to treat cancer, the usage of cell isolation would continue to increase around the globe.

Dad told he has months left to live after stem cell transplant fails – Wales Online

Posted: March 26, 2020 at 8:43 pm

When Phil Huntley started experiencing cold and flu-like symptoms just weeks after his wedding, he initially thought very little of it.

But after visiting his GP and seeing an out-of-hours doctor, his condition deteriorated to such an extent that he collapsed at home.

Tests in hospital confirmed that not only did the 38-year-old have pneumonia and sepsis, but also a rare form of leukaemia which has now spread to his skin and central nervous system.

He has now been told he may have just months left to live after a stem cell transplant failed.

The most recent news has devastated us, but we remain hopeful that against all odds all will be well, said his wife Sian Huntley, 50.

We are determined to live our best lives, make every day count and be grateful for everything.

We are doing our best to make sure the absolute fear that we feel doesn't take over, and instead we breathe and live each moment with joy and gratitude.

Phil, who married Sian in December 2018, said he started suffering with severe night sweats in January 2019 before he became increasingly unwell.

I was dosing myself up on flu relief and still going to work every day. I carried on like that for a few weeks, recalled Phil, a former employee with the National Trust.

Eventually I went to my GP as I knew something wasn't right, but they just said 'something was going around' at the moment and told me to come back in a few days for a blood test if things didn't improve.

After seeing an out-of-hours GP who gave him antibiotics for a suspected chest infection, his condition deteriorated further.

One day it took until 2pm to get out of bed. I managed to find the strength to have a shower. At one point I lost my footing, but moments later everything just went black.

I woke up in Sian's arms who was on the phone to the ambulance.

In A&E at Withybush Hospital in Haverfordwest, blood tests revealed that Phil had pneumonia and sepsis, a condition which causes the body's immune to go into overdrive and start attacking healthy tissue and organs.

It was also discovered that the Solva resident had leukaemia and would need to be transferred to the University Hospital of Wales (UHW) in Cardiff.

Leukaemia was the last thing that crossed my mind, said Phil.

I think the gravity of the whole situation only hit me towards the end of my ambulance ride between Withybush and UHW.

I just felt shock - and such disbelief that I could have laughed. Between myself and Sian we have four children and all I could do is think of them.

While Phil recovered quickly from sepsis, he would need many gruelling rounds of chemotherapy to treat the leukaemia.

I was in UHW for two months to begin with, a week of which was in intensive care, Phil added.

That's all pretty much a blur, and for the first month I didn't leave my bed.

In the second month I had to learn to walk again. When I managed to get myself to the toilet for the first time on my own it was a little personal victory.

Sian added that their four children Dylan, nine; Ben, 10; Katie, 14; and Amy, 16, have all been brilliant while Phil has been unwell.

She said: They all help in any way they can. We know they are struggling and worrying about things. The two older girls have taken on some additional responsibility such as looking after Ben.

But emotionally it has really taken its toll.

Phil, who was later also found to have aspergillosis, a condition which causes major breathing problems, ended up contracting sepsis four times in total following every round of chemotherapy.

Every time he had chemotherapy we were on red alert and would need to take him to hospital, said Sian.

But the staff at Withybush Hospital were amazing and acted straight away to prevent Phil from going into septic shock.

In November 2019, nurses informed Phil that a positive stem cell match had been found for him, giving him hope that he may be cured.

It was a 27-year-old guy from somewhere in Wales and the match was 100%, he said.

But by this point I'd developed leukaemia of the skin, which is only found in around 2% of leukaemia patients. The Cardiff team hadn't really dealt with it previously.

I was in isolation for four to six weeks in UHW for chemotherapy, then I went to Velindre for radiotherapy on my skin, and then I went back to UHW for the transplant to be carried out which was done through an IV drip into my arm.

While Phil started to see signs of improvement early on after the transplant, by mid February 2020 the legions that had vanished from his skin began to reappear.

It's been horrendous, said Sian. At times none of this has seemed real.

His condition is so rare that there is currently no research or medical trials taking place.

A GoFundMe page was set up for the family by close friend Jacqueline Roberts so they can enjoy the time they have left together by going on regular trips around Wales and the UK.

To donate, go to https://www.gofundme.com/f/phil-the-super-hero

But sadly, due to the outbreak of coronavirus and Phil being classified as an extremely at risk patient, he is unable to leave his Pembrokeshire home for at least the next three months.

Sian admitted that she was terrified of picking up the virus and passing it onto her severely unwell husband.

Sian said: We wanted to make some memories as a family, but we are obviously very mindful of the current situation.

We wanted to go to Cornwall as a family but that's obviously not happening now. We are very fortunate to live in a very beautiful part of Wales anyway.

Phil, who is now having monthly injections to slow down the progress of the leukaemia, said he is looking forward to spending some time at home with his family.

I've been either in the hospital or stuck in the house for quite some time now. I just feel sorry for the children as they cannot go anywhere, he said.

Coriell Institute for Medical Research Awarded $8.6 Million Biobanking Contract from National Institute on Aging – Newswise

Posted: March 18, 2020 at 9:42 pm

Newswise The National Institute on Aging (NIA) has extended its biobanking contract with the Coriell Institute for Medical Research for an additional five years.

The newly awarded $8.6 million funding keeps Coriell in place as the trusted steward of this collection and includes the addition of new innovative products to expand the collection. The NIA Aging Cell Repository was established at Coriell in 1974 and Coriell has continuously managed this unique resource ever since.

Coriells relationship with the NIA is among its oldest and most treasured, said Nahid Turan, Coriell's Chief Biobanking Officer. We at Coriell are committed to ensuring the success of this phenomenal collection of aging-related biospecimens, and we are thrilled at the opportunity to continue this important collaboration with NIA.

The NIA Aging Cell Repository contains a collection of high quality, well characterized human and animal cell line and DNA samples, representing aged human populations, age-related diseases, and animal models of aging and has seen significant changes in the last decade.

One major focus of the collection is now to generate valuable induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines, which can be used to model aging and perform disease in a dish experiments. These stem cells are created from skin or blood cells in the NIA collection, which were reverted into a stem cell state. From there, these cells can be coaxed into becoming nearly any other cell type in the body, including neuronal or nerve cells. Seven of these important iPSC lines have been added to the collection in the last three years, representing age related neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimers disease as well as rare genetic diseases like Progeria and Werner Syndrome.

Late last year, the Repository also added more than 350 new cell lines collected from participants in a long-term study of aging known as The 90+ Study. Participants in this study all aged 90 years or older donated their DNA and agreed to answer questions over a period of time to help researchers better understand the lifestyle and biological factors which may contribute to advanced aging.

Targeting the Tumor Microenvironment – Technology Networks

Posted: March 18, 2020 at 9:42 pm

The tumor microenvironment (TME) that surrounds solid cancers has long held fascination for researchers. Yet it is only relatively recently that weve understood how important the TME is for influencing progression of the disease and response to treatment. In this article we learn why its not just the tumor itself that needs to be targeted and hear about research that aims to exploit the TME, too.

Some cancers, such as prostate cancer tend to be immunologically cold, i.e. not much is happening, the immune system is not fighting the cancer, whereas melanoma is a hot tumor where immune responses are very important and these patients respond well to immunotherapy. Tabi is investigating whether these hot or cold immune phenotypes hold true in other cancers. She is particularly interested in mesothelioma, an aggressive form of lung cancer with poor survival rates.An inflammatory environment is advantageous while an immunosuppressive environment allows the tumor to progress, she explained. Mesothelioma is interesting because there are two types of mesothelioma: one is hot and the other is cold and there is nearly nothing in between. However, because there are not many immunotherapy trials in mesothelioma, we dont really know the meaning of this yet. she says.Then it gets even more complex because there are some multifocal tumors where each lump is different so within one patient, one tumor could be immunologically cold and another hot. In this scenario, it has been observed that some of the lumps can be removed with successful immunotherapy but the others cant.To test whether an anti-tumor immune response could be achieved in mesothelioma, Tabi initiated a clinical trial in mesothelioma where the patients were vaccinated with an attenuated virus that carried cancer antigens. The patients received it together with chemotherapy and they monitored the immune changes in the blood. Of the 23 patients taking part, 22 had a marked increase in their anti-tumor response1. This kind of treatment is now being tested in a combination with other, more targeted interventions. Our trial was an important step in that direction because mesothelioma is such an aggressive disease and its nearly impossible to have a complete remission and the survival rate is very low.For the future, in addition to changing the immune profile to improve the effectiveness and general outcome of immunotherapy, Tabi also highlights another important player in the TME cellular exosomes. These tiny particles are released by cells in order to communicate with each other.Exosomes are getting a lot of attention recently, as tumor cell-derived exosomes are important in changing the normal microenvironment to make it more receptive for the tumor to spread, says Tabi. Several years ago, there was an attempt to use exosomes as a cancer vaccine. We always thought that was a bad idea. Now we have the evidence to show that, yes, they carry tumor antigens, but its not possible to use them as a cancer vaccine because they have dominant immunosuppressive effects.

All About Organoids

Organoids are 3D cell clusters with the structural and functional features of an organ, and can be generated from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) or adult stem cells acquired from a specific patient. Consequently, organoids make it possible to study the impact of a drug on a specific disease, even a persons own disease they are changing the face of research and medicine as we know it. Download this eBook to discover more about organoids including their analysis and how they are effecting personalized medicine.

Rather than look at the epithelium of these tumors and sequence them, the Grand Challenge team plans to focus on the cells that normally maintain these epithelial cells, to understand how these become distorted during inflammation and how signaling pathways between stromal cells, the extracellular matrix and the epithelium drive tumorigenesis. The team view inflammation-associated cancers as a disease process rather than individual cancer types.First, we need to characterize the stroma because its really not been done, so were probably missing lots of targets that we just dont know about, says McDonald. Then we want to use that information to try and predict which patients are going to develop cancer and which ones arent.To achieve this goal, the international Grand Challenge team will combine a broad range of technologies. First, in a discovery phase, they plan to develop maps of these chronic inflammation cancers from understanding RNA and protein expression, immune environment and creating databases to help predict or determine targets. Theyll also exploit CODEX technology (provided by Professor Garry Nolan, Stanford) which allows you to measure the expression of 60100 targets on a cell section to investigate cell-cell neighborhoods, and understand, if one cell is present how does it talk to the other cells around it?

In a subsequent development phase they will look at the targets identified from the -omics and CODEX analysis and build these into an in vitro model using organ-on-a-chip technology a model that is far more tissue-like because you can model effects such as the peristaltic motion of the bowel and blood flow on a 3D chip (Professor Don Ingber, Harvard). This will be combined with in vivo models that allow them to interrogate the effects of targeting stromal factors on stem cell biology and tumorigenesis.

McDonalds role is to take these data and apply it to patients. Well use samples from patients weve collected over time, who have progressed to cancer, and try to identify which factors predict progression and which ones dont, he explains.

One of challenges from a clinical perspective with chronic inflammation cancers is that very few people with the inflammatory condition go on to develop cancer. In Barretts esophagus, the progression rate per year is about 0.10.3% of all BO patients, says McDonald, yet every single person will go through a two- to five-year endoscopic surveillance program that is invasive, expensive and does not predict if they will develop cancer.

By looking at changes to the stroma over time, were trying to predict: how do these cell populations evolve? How do they talk to each other? Is the risk there when the patient develops the condition, and is it just a matter of time? Or is it something that changes at some point in the patients life? This would be an important advance in these types of cancers, because it helps with not only preventing cancers but also detecting the early-stage cancers that we sometimes miss.Reference1.Lester J, Casbard AC, Al-Taei S et al.

New Research On Brain Structure Highlights Cells Linked To Alzheimer’s And Autism – BioSpace

Posted: March 17, 2020 at 6:43 pm

New insights into the architecture of the brain have been revealed by scientists at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, the Wellcome-MRC Cambridge Stem Cell Institute and their collaborators. The researchers discovered that cells in the cerebral cortex of mice, called astrocytes, are more diverse than previously thought, with distinct layers of astrocytes across the cerebral cortex that provide the strongest evidence to date of their specialization across the brain.

Published today (16 March) in Nature Neuroscience, the most in-depth study of its kind is set to change the way we think about the brain and the role of cells such as astrocytes. This knowledge will have with implications for the study of neurological disorders, such as Alzheimers, multiple sclerosis and autism.

In the past 20 years, research has shown glial cells to be key players in brain development and function, as well as promising targets for better understanding neurological disorders. Alzheimers causes around two thirds of dementia cases in the UK, which affects around 850,000 individuals at present*. MS is a neurological disorder that affects the central nervous system and impacts around 100,000 people in the UK**. Autism affects around one in every hundred people in the UK***.

Glial comes from the Greek word for glue or putty. At one time, glial cells were thought of as 'brain putty' functionally similar, passive cells whose only function was to fill the space around the all important neurons. However, new studies are showing their critical importance in regulating neuron functions^. Astrocytes are a type of glial cell, so called because of their star-shaped structure^^.

Despite the wealth of knowledge on neuronal function and the organisation of neurons into layers, prior to this study there had been little investigation into whether glial cells across different layers showed different cellular properties. To answer this question, the researchers developed a new methodological approach to provide a more detailed view of the organisation of astrocytes than ever before.

Nucleic acid imaging was carried out on mouse and human brain samples at the University of Cambridge to map how new genes are expressed within tissue. These maps were combined with single cell genomic data at the Wellcome Sanger Institute to extend the molecular description of astrocytes. These data sets were then combined to create a three-dimensional, high-resolution picture of astrocytes in the cerebral cortex.

The team discovered that astrocytes are not uniform as previously thought, but take distinct molecular forms depending on their location in the cerebral cortex. They found that astrocytes are also organised into multiple layers, but that the boundaries of astrocyte layers are not identical to the neuronal layers. Instead, astrocyte layers have less sharply defined edges and overlap the neuronal layers.

Dr Omer Bayraktar, Group Leader at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, said: The discovery that astrocytes are organised into layers that are similar, but not identical to, neuronal layers redefines our view of the structure of the mammalian brain. The structure of the cerebral cortex can no longer simply be seen as the structure of neurons. If you want to properly understand how our brains work, you have to consider how astrocytes are organised and what role they play.

As well as increasing our understanding of brain biology, the findings will have implications for the study and treatment of human neurological disorders. Over the past decade glial cells, rather than neurons, have been heavily implicated in diseases such as Alzheimers and multiple sclerosis.

Professor David Rowitch, senior author of the study and Head of Paediatrics at the University of Cambridge, said: This study shows that the cortical architecture is more complex than previously thought. It provides a basis to begin to understand the precise roles played by astrocytes, and how they are involved in human neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative diseases.

Notes to Editors:

In the cerebral cortex of the mammalian brain, neurons are the cells responsible for transmitting information throughout the body. It has long been recognised that the 10-14 billion neurons of the human cerebral cortex are organised into six layers, with distinct populations of neurons in each layer that correspond to their function https://www.dartmouth.edu/~rswenson/NeuroSci/chapter_11.html

^^ Only half of the cells in the human cerebral cortex are neurons, the other half are glial cells, of which astrocytes are a type. The molecular signals that astrocytes provide are essential for forming synapses between neurons. They regulate synapse formation in the developing brain, as well as refining synapses in the maturing brain 'pruning' extra synapses to sculpt neuronal networks.

Stem cells: what do bones have to do with boosting immunity? – Health Europa

Posted: March 17, 2020 at 6:43 pm

A research team led by Professor Michael Sieweke, from the Center for Regenerative Therapies TU Dresden (CRTD) and the Center of Immunology of Marseille Luminy (CNRS, INSERM, Aix-Marseille University), has uncovered a surprising property of blood stem cells that contributes to boosting our immunity.

Not only do the stem cells ensure the continuous renewal of blood cells and contribute to the immune response triggered by an infection, but they can also remember previous infectious encounters to drive a more rapid and more efficient immune response in the future.

These cells are found within the soft tissue, or bone marrow, in the centre of large bones such as the hip and thigh bones.

The new findings should have a significant impact on future vaccination strategies and pave the way for new treatments of an underperforming or over-reacting immune system.

Stem cells in our bodies act as reservoirs of cells that divide to produce new stem cells, as well as a myriad of different types of specialised cells that are required to secure tissue renewal and function.

Commonly called blood stem cells, the hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are found in the bone marrow, the soft tissue that is in the centre of large bones such as the hips or thighs. The role of the cells is to renew the repertoire of blood cells, including cells of the immune system, which are crucial to fight infections and other diseases.

Work from Professor Michael Siewekes laboratory and others over the past years has proven the dogma that HSCs were unspecialised cells, blind to external signals such as infections, was wrong, and has shown that HSCs can actually sense external factors to specifically produce subtypes of immune cells on demand to fight an infection.

Beyond their role in an emergency immune response, the question remained as to the function of HSCs in responding to repeated infectious episodes. The immune system is known to have a memory that allows it to better respond to returning infectious agents. The present study now establishes a central role for blood stem cells in this memory.

Professor Michael Sieweke, Humboldt Professor at TU Dresden, CNRS Research Director and last author of the publication, explained how they found the memory was stored within the cells: The first exposure to LPS causes marks to be deposited on the DNA of the stem cells, right around genes that are important for an immune response. Much like bookmarks, the marks on the DNA ensure that these genes are easily found, accessible and activated for a rapid response if a second infection by a similar agent was to come.

The authors further explored how the memory was inscribed on the DNA, and found C/EBPb to be the major actor, describing a new function for this factor, which is also important for emergency immune responses. Together, these findings should lead to improvements in tuning the immune system or better vaccination strategies.

Sieweke concluded: The ability of the immune system to keep track of previous infections and respond more efficiently the second time they are encountered is the founding principle of vaccines.

Now that we understand how blood stem cells bookmark immune response circuits, we should be able to optimise immunisation strategies to broaden the protection to infectious agents. It could also more generally lead to new ways to boost the immune response when it underperforms or turn it off when it overreacts.
