What is meat? You might say it's simple: water, fat, muscle, connective tissue you know, all that tasty-sounding stuff.

But those at the forefront of developing cell-cultured meat have a different idea. Maybe meat is the product not of killing animals but of cultural consensus.

At the center of Chase Purdy's briskly paced and quietly bold Billion Dollar Burger: Inside Big Tech's Race for the Future of Food is Josh Tetrick, a San Francisco-based entrepreneur and CEO of Just Inc. Tetrick's company and a handful of others like it are growing cell-cultured meat that tastes, feels and looks like the livestock-harvested meat that people are used to except without the farms and killing of animals. And before anyone raises a skeptical brow: Yes, it's actually meat. Technically, at least. The struggle for mainstream acceptance of cell-cultured meat is real. Convincing the American public that cells grown in "serum" in a big vat is meat will be challenging, but it could happen and sooner than you might think.

Meat, it seems, is all about what consumers are used to. For the sake of the planet and the future of food sustainability, it might be time to reconsider meat harvested from dead animals. If we're going to eat meat at all, eliminating the need to kill an animal that consumes food resources humans could otherwise be using and that's also captive to an industry that pollutes the air and soil and deforests broad swaths of the planet might be a good start.

One of Purdy's strengths is his ease in exposition. He can even be charmingly teacherlike at times. Take, for instance, how he describes how cell-cultured meat is grown, starting with cells taken from a live animal.

"The scientists at cell-cultured meat companies identify which cells are stem cells. Whereas ordinary cells have limited utility, stem cells can divide and multiply many times, and they can transform into any of the more than two hundred types of cells that operate within animal bodies.

Think of our cells as individuals on a building construction site. Some are assigned to lay cement, some are trained as carpenters, and another might be an electrician. Together, they work harmoniously to build different components of the larger structure. But it is possible to pluck a cement worker from her job, send her to classes where she'll learn about wiring, plugs, and sockets. Then she can be sent back into the field as a newly trained electrician. The same thing can happen on a molecular level."

That's not all though. Scientists grow those cells in a kind of liquid. Because lab-grown meat doesn't have blood to circulate nutrients like living bodies do, scientists at Just and companies like it use a kind of "serum" that contains sugars, lipids, hormones and amino acids, as well as many hundreds of proteins that carry out functions such as transporting insulin, which helps grow cultured vertebrate cells, or transferrin, which delivers iron to cells. Oh, and all this takes place in vats that can look straight out of a brewery.

In covering the business side of cell-cultured meat, Purdy could have written a hagiographic account of Tetrick and Just; refreshingly, he chose not to. This could have been another Steve Jobs-type story no one needs, where a visionary has a great idea that will change the world and then, after the world gets changed wait for it said visionary gets really rich too. Then, as Americans, we're left undecided as to whether we admire the accomplishment or the wealth more. Instead, Purdy's book reads more realistically, like the teasing out of a tangled dance among entrenched meat producers, a few ambitious start-ups, early pioneers, regulatory complications and consumer skepticism.

It's the lack of heroes that, in part, makes this such an interesting story and topic. Tetrick knew from his early years that he cared about animal welfare and that he wanted to do something good for the world. He drifted through law school and still was unsure about a proper course for his life. He decided on cell-cultured meat as a cause and business because he saw opportunity and it aligned with his values and so he decided to take it. And in the depiction of Tetrick, Purdy is careful to allow him to tell his story, as well as capture others' stories of him, some of which are unflattering. Meat, however, stays front and center in this story. It keeps you hungry.

Still, there's the moral and ethical matter of manipulating nature to serve human ends. Sure, other forms of this kind of manipulation go by the names "civilization" or "technology," but the issues arising from cell-cultured meat aren't minor. Essentially it's cloning. Purdy asks Peter Singer, a Princeton University bioethics professor and the author of Animal Liberation, whether growing meat in vats violates the natural order and if he has a problem with it. "No, I don't, to be honest," Singer says. "I think we can and always have striven to do better than nature. ... I don't think nature is in any way a gold standard."

Alice Waters, famous chef of Chez Panisse in Berkeley, Calif., sees things differently. She tells Purdy: "I really think of my food as deeply connected to nature. It has to do with seasonality; it has to do with a complexity of soil that grows the vegetables that the animals eat. I think it's what nourishes us." This might be true, but most people don't (and can't) get their meat locally sourced, even if that would be ideal. Sustainable consumption of meat might just require more cell-cultured meat than its livestock-harvested antecedent.

Purdy rightly leaves the humans vs. nature debate aside, though, after teasing out the positions, and gets back to the big question: What is meat? Philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche wrote that "there is no feast without cruelty," but he clearly did not live to see the still ambiguous but encouraging promise of cell-cultured meat. Meat, oddly enough, might just be what we agree meat is. Heretofore it was the flesh of a dead animal. Now it can be engineered in a lab to have the same properties that a living animal's flesh would have.

If the taste and texture are the same and if the cost is manageable, why not? Now, when someone says, "It tastes like chicken," you can say: "It is chicken." It's grilling without the killing.

Stem cells can be referred to as blank state or non-specialized cells that have the ability to become specialized cells in the body such as bone, muscle, nerve or organ cells. This indicates that these special cells can be used to regrow or establish a wide range of broken cells and tissues in the body. Stem cell therapy is therefore a treatment that aims at accomplishing tissue regrowth and can be utilized to treat health conditions and illnesses such as osteoarthritis, degenerative disc illness, spine injury, muscular degeneration, motor neuron disease, ALS, Parkinsons, heart disease and much more.

Being a treatment that is still under research study, stem cell treatment has actually not been completely accepted as a feasible treatment alternative for the above discussed health conditions and health problems. A lot of studio is currently being carried out by scientists and medical experts in various parts of the world to make this treatment viable and efficient. There are however numerous restrictions enforced by federal governments on research involving embryonic stem cells.

Currently, there have not been numerous case studies performed for this kind of treatment. Nevertheless, with the few case studies that have been conducted, one of the major issues that has actually been raised is the boost in a patients threat of developing cancer. Cancer is brought on by the quick reproduction of cells that have a tendency not to pass away so easily. Stem cells have actually been associated with comparable growth factors that may result in formation of growths and other malignant cells in clients.

Stem cells can be extracted from a young embryo after conception. These stem cells are frequently referred to as embryonic stem cells. After the stem cells are extracted from the embryo, the embryo is ended. This is generally among the significant causes of debate in the field of stem cell research study. Many people suggest that termination of an embryo is unethical and inappropriate.

New research has nevertheless shown pledge as scientists aim at establishing stem cells that do not form into growths in later treatment phases. These stem cells can therefore successfully change into other kinds of specialized cells. This treatment is therefore worth researching into as lots of clients can benefit from this innovative treatment.

Stem cells can still be gotten through other means as they can be discovered in the blood, bone marrow and umbilical cords of adult human beings. Typical body cells can likewise be reverse-engineered to become stem cells that have actually limited capabilities.

'This is the beginning of my new life'

I thought my cancer diagnosis was a death sentence, said Lynnette Williams-Briggs, 60, of Seaford, Delaware, who was diagnosed with advanced B-cell lymphoma in 2018.

Briggs cancer is now in complete remission thanks to successful chimeric antigen receptor CAR-T cell therapy she received in August atChristianaCaresHelen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research InstitutesBone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplant Program.

I can breathe again. This is the beginning of my new life, Williams-Briggs said following the treatment that restored her hope for a second chance at life.

She was the first patient to receive CAR-T cell therapy in Delaware. A second patient was treated in December 2019, and doctors are preparing several more patients for CAR-T cell transplants in coming weeks.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved CAR-T cell therapy to treat patients like Williams-Briggs with highly resistant, B-cell blood cancers, for whom other available options have failed.

CAR-T cell therapy is only available at select cancer centers with specialized expertise in cellular therapies that are recognized for quality by the Foundation for the Accreditation of Cellular Therapy.

The Graham Cancer Centers Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplant Program is the only one in Delaware that is certified to treat adult patients with advanced B-cell lymphomas and children and young adults (to age 25) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, using an FDA-approved drug.

CAR-T cell therapy is highly personalized medicine that attempts to use the bodys natural defenses to fight against cancer. The transplant team extracts millions of T cells, from the patients bloodstream, using a specialized blood filtration process called leukapheresis. The collected T cells are flash-frozen and sent to a lab for reprogramming, and then later infused back into the patient using a process similar to a blood transfusion.

The therapy is considered a living drug with potential benefits that could last for years.

When we first met Ms. Williams-Briggs, her cancer had progressed rapidly despite a third round of chemotherapy, so we knew we had to move quickly, said Graham Cancer Center Hematologist Peter Abdelmessieh, D.O. He worked closely with the bone marrow/stem cell transplant team and Graham Cancer Center leadership over the course of just eight months to develop the CAR-T cell therapy program.

It was truly a team effort to bring CAR-T cell therapy to our community so quickly, Dr. Abdelmessieh said.

CAR-T cell therapy has been extremely effective for many patients like Williams-Briggs, whose PET scan at 90 days confirmed her remission.

The supercharged T cells Williams-Briggs received were genetically modified in the lab to sprout new surface tools that improve their ability to recognize, latch onto and destroy other cells (including cancer cells) that express a specific antigen called CD19. These reprogrammed cells continue to multiply in the body after treatment, remaining on guard to seek and destroy any new cancers that might develop.

With continued success in increasing numbers of patients, it is conceivable that in the not too distant future, CAR-T cell therapy could become the new standard of care, replacing chemotherapy and stem cell transplants for many cancers, Dr. Abdelmessieh said.

The extended recovery period for CAR-T cell therapy is generally two to three months. After the infusion, patients may spend up to three weeks in the hospital to monitor treatment response and any side effects.

During the first 30 days after leaving the hospital, patients are required to remain close to the treatment center for regular follow-up care.

The ability to offer potentially life-saving CAR-T cell therapy is one more reason our patients need not travel further than the Graham Cancer Center for state-of-the-science cancer treatment, said Nicholas J. Petrelli, M.D., Bank of America medical director of the Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute.

The Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplant Program is an outstanding example of how well our clinical teams work together to drive innovation in patient care.

Although patients normally do not experience the side effects associated with chemotherapy, such as nausea, vomiting or hair loss, CAR-T cell therapy is not without risks. A common side effect, which Williams-Briggs also experienced, is cytokine release syndrome. This is an inflammatory condition that causes flu-like symptoms that may be mild or severe.

The transplant team responded quickly to manage her symptoms while she received expert care on the Bone Marrow Transplant and Oncology unit at Christiana Hospital.

From the moment I first met with my transplant team, I felt like I was part of one big loving family that extended beyond my own loved ones, Williams-Briggs said.

Dr. Abdelmessieh and my ChristianaCare family gave me hope to keep fighting when I really didnt think I would make it. I would have driven anywhere to get life-saving treatment, but I am thankful that I did not have to. I found my miracle closer to home.

First CAR-T cell cancer therapy patient in Delaware - Dover Post

Materials science company W. L. Gore & Associates Inc. (Newark, DE) has announced a joint venture with the Mayo Clinic (Rochester, MN) to further develop a therapeutic system using stem cells and bio-absorbable scaffolds to treat a condition affecting patients with Crohns disease. Avobis Bio, based in Delaware, will draw on the expertise of scientists and medical professionals from both organizations to build on the encouraging results of an investigational treatment for perianal fistulas.

A debilitating condition that affects patients with Crohns disease, perianal fistulas are painful tunneling wounds connecting the anus to the skin, explained Gore in a press release. Few healing options exist, and patients endure multiple surgeries and ongoing risk of life-threatening complications, said Gore.

"Perianal fistulas are truly life-altering for Crohn's patients, and treatment options have eluded gastroenterologists and surgeons for years," added William Faubion Jr., MD, a Mayo Clinic gastroenterologist who specializes in inflammatory bowel diseases.

The innovative treatment involves harvesting a patients own mesenchymal stem cells, which then are populated on Gore's bioabsorbable polymer scaffold and surgically implanted in the fistula. A phase I clinical trial showed that 76% of patients healed within a year. If this outcome is validated in a larger trial, Gore said that it would dramatically exceed outcomes achieved with existing treatments.

This project is the initial focus of Avobis Bio, which describes its overall mission as an exploration of the use of mesenchymal stem cells combined with enabling bioabsorbable scaffolds that enhance the effectiveness of the cells in stimulating the body to heal.

Delivering a patients mesenchymal stem cells on a synthetic scaffold that biodegrades over time may be a first-of-its-kind medical therapy, noted Joe Carlson, a reporter at the Minneapolis-based Star Tribune reporting on the joint venture. If successful, Avobis Bio may one day offer a variety of tissue and organ-repair therapies combining Mayo's stem cell expertise and Gore's medical materials, he wrote.

Gore is perhaps best known to the public for its Gore-Tex outerwear, but the privately held $3.7 billion engineering and manufacturing firm sells products in an array of industries, including a line of medical devices designed to repair nonnatural holes in body organs, added Carlson. Mayo has used Gore-made devices for many years.

Global Stem Cell Therapy Market 2019-2025 Analyzed by Business Growth, Development Factors, Applications, and Future Prospects - Technology Magazine

Article by Karen B. Roberts Photos by Evan Krape November 11, 2019

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines an inventor as one who creates or introduces something new.

Thomas Edison is one. So is Emily Day.

Edison created the incandescent light bulb and the typewriter, among dozens of other things.

Day, an assistant professor in biomedical engineering at the University of Delaware, is working on technology that may one day replace bone marrow transplants by enabling nanoparticle carrier systems to deliver medication and cargo directly to stem cells without the need to remove them from the body.

The University recognized more than 225 inventors, including Day, on Tuesday, Oct. 29, for their remarkable contributions to UD and to society at large.

The event, held at the Roselle Center for the Arts and coordinated by the UDResearch Office, celebrated researchers with discoveries in engineering, health care, energy, agriculture and many other fields.

You, our inventors, have taken nuggets of ideas, of discoveries that youve made and developed them through hard work, trial and error, failure and success. Youve shown tenacity and drive, patience and persistence, and the results are what were celebrating today, said UD Provost Robin Morgan.

Enriching the environment for entrepreneurship

Since 2008, UD researchers have generated more than 500 inventions.

Working in collaboration with its partners, the University has made a concerted effort to enrich the environment for these types of efforts in Delaware, contributing to the states economic prosperity and positively impacting the greater good.

UD research expenditures for fiscal year 2019 totaled $161 million, a record-setting 10% increase over 2018, to explore pressing topics across the sciences, engineering, humanities and social sciences.

During this same time frame, UD researchers generated 33 patent applications and secured 11 patents, with the support of the Universitys Office of Economic Innovation and Partnerships (OEIP). OEIP has licensed six UD-developed technologies to outside companies and evaluated numerous other potential inventions currently under development.

Several UD-developed technologies are now featured in the Association of University Technology Managers Better World Project, which highlights successful examples where academic research and technology transfer combine to benefit the broader world. One of these is the UD-patented microbe UD10-22, a unique strain of Bacillus subtilis that helps plants grow stronger, developed by Harsh Bais, associate professor of plant and soil sciences, and Janine Sherrier, a former UD faculty member. UD licensed the technology to BASF, a global chemical company, in 2013. After completing successful trials and regulatory clearances, the technology is now available in the market as a key component of BASFs Velondis and Nodulator Duo product lines in Canada and the United States. Trials are ongoing for the product to be available in four additional product lines and for a range of crops to be sold in several countries in South America, Europe and Asia.

We are building a dynamic and rich ecosystem to support this type of activity, now and in the future, said Charles G. Riordan, UD vice president for research, scholarship and innovation.

Continued growth of UDs Science, Technology and Advanced Research (STAR) Campus through strategic partnerships and infrastructure development is one example that firmly positions the University as an innovation powerhouse for the community, state and region. The Delaware Innovation Space, the business incubator that is a public-private partnership between the state of Delaware, DuPont and UD, is another.

Riordan reported that Delaware Innovation Space, with its 130,000 square feet of lab-based tech space for startups, already is 90% occupied, hosting 13 companies including UD startups W7energy and MCET along with serving an additional dozen companies through its virtual program. The result more than 240 jobs created or retained.

Other resources available on campus to support innovators and entrepreneurs include, but are not limited to, OEIP, competitive funding opportunities, seed funding and training programs at UDs Horn Entrepreneurship,and new and existing core research facilities.

Other UD technologies that have had success in the marketplace during the past year include Avkin, a leading manufacturer of sensor-enabled, high-fidelity, wearable technology for health care simulation education founded byAmy Cowperthwait, director of Healthcare Theatre for the College of Health Sciences.The patented devices are used for training health care workers and caregivers to perform clinical procedures, such asdrawing blood, tracheostomy care or catheter insertion. Designed to be worn by a live actor, Avkin products provide a realistic, patient-centered simulation.

Today, the UD-developed products can be found in select medical and nursing schools and health systems.The company now has five products in the market, and recently launched a new package aimed at equipping todays practitioners with the knowledge and skills necessary to prevent hospital acquired infections and to improve patient outcomes.

Isao Noda, UD affiliated professor in materials science and engineering, said it is particularly important to foster innovation and invention among students. An inventor himself, Noda is named on more than 60grantedU.S. patents.

One of Nodas inventions is abio-basedplasticmade from vegetable oilsknown asNodax, which can be used to make eco-friendlyproductsranging from biodegradable plastic straws topiezoelectricnanofibers forsensors and other electronics. Nodainventedthe material while a research fellow atProcterand Gamble. Today, UDscientistsare part of theexploratorywork onNodax, collaboratingon fundamental research to see just what elsethisnovelmaterialcan do.

In industry, invention is required. If you dont invent, you will be fired. But many graduates get jobs in industry without any of the training on how to invent, so this is amazingly important, said Noda.

Day agreed and said her approach to innovation shifted in recent years, particularly when speaking with students.

In the beginning of my academic career I was more focused on publishing papers, Day said. As my group has become more established, I now tell my students, Hey, before you go present this or publish, its important for you to submit your invention disclosure to protect your ideas.
