Reprogrammed human fibroblasts cells grow into new blood vessels

[beholder]

Hey guys, exciting new research here:
http://www.houstonmethodist.org/methodist.cfm?xyzpdqabc=0&id=495&action=detail&ref=1295
more details in the new issue of Circulation: http://circ.ahajournals.org/

Short summary: they used a "small molecule" (whatever that is) to trick fibroblast/scar-tissue cells to activate certain genes and then used VEGF to turn these cells into endothelial cells which actually formed new arteries. Exactly what we might need btw.

Even better news for people with scars

This kind of stuff is nifty and hopefully someday can help people someday.

Such a big mouth hellouser, but too much of a pussy to answer some questions you don't like. Quite a sorry sight.

Great to see you're back with the off-topic derailing crew. It's respectless towards the people that actually want to discuss these things here, but to you its more imprtant to post the same thing over and over again in every thread.

Something for FUT scars.

I replied to your cribbing in that thread. I hope it satisfies you.

Yes, you demonstrated once again what a coward you are. Too afraid to answer four, five simple questions. But big-mouthed on an internet forum.

What's ironic is that our useless sh1t posting and your intelligent research talk get the exact same amount of work accomplished.

These forums were never meant to get THE WORK ACCOMPLISHED, if that was your main motive to join this forum thn m really sorry. We shd let people discuss what they want to discuss IMO. Keep these rants confined to the impact section.
