Wexler追踪导致亨廷顿病的基因时，我天真地以为我们已快获得这些知识了。那时我希望10年内就能找到导致精神分裂、抑郁症、自闭症的基因。从那以后科学家们为找到这些做了很多努力，走了很多弯路，只是进展甚微。在过去的几年中，遗传学的某些进展给了我们重燃希望的理由。既然现在我们能研究人类整个的基因组，那么我们就不用孤立地研究一个或几个基因。因此未来10到20年会比过去20年得到更多有意义的研究成果。一项重要发现是基因组比预计的更加变化多端，这被叫做拷贝数变异（copy

type='text'>source河北省石家庄市白求恩国际和平医院6月10日称，全球首例经储液囊脑室内干细胞移植手术在该院成功完成，患运动神经元两年多的姜先生在该院神经内科接受了此手术。 据介绍，两年前辽宁患者姜先生突然感到嗓子不舒服，后来出现言语困难，逐渐发展为全身无力、不能行走、连头都难以支撑，只能进半流食，在当地医院诊断为运动神经元病。 神经内科主任冯连元告诉记者，运动神经元病是一组病因不明的侵犯运动神经细胞的慢性进行性变性疾病，这种病被喻为“神经癌”，目前世界上没有好的治疗方法。 “神经癌”按照常规手段治疗，需通过腰穿对患者移植干细胞，这样干细胞从腰部逆流达到脑部病变部位时会衰减很多，难以保证最佳治疗效果。为了提高治疗效果，神经内科主管医生邢红艳决定采取一种新的治疗办法。6日下午，该院神经内科、神经外科联手通过经颅立体定向手术将一储液囊植入患者头皮下。10日，神经内科将干细胞通过储液囊移植到脑室内，</summary><link rel='replies'

type='text'>神经修复学中值得注意的两个技术</title><summary type='text'>欢迎到neurosociety group讨论相关话题：）这次带来的是比较NB的生物医学工程技术。人工耳蜗（cochlear implant）是上个世纪生物医学工程的一个很重要的进步（下一步会不会出现人工海马体），但是诞生之后却花了很长时间才被广泛应用。下面的文章对两种技术表达了相同的观点。一个是仿生触觉传感（biomimetic tactile sensing），另一个是植入式神经刺激器（injectable neurostimulator）。前者用来复制人类的触觉，让机器人拥有触觉的同时或许可以治疗某些疾病。后者（是块芯片）除了可以刺激有神经损伤的肌肉，或许未来还可以直接植入鼠脑（人脑？）代替生物微电极。News source从 DeviceTalk 作者：sherrieI had the pleasure of hearing industry pioneer Gerald

例，截至2009年2月，Beike使用脐带血干细胞注入法共治疗病人超过5087人次，涉及了运动失调，自闭症，肌萎缩侧索硬化症（ALS），脑外伤， 脑梗塞，脑出血，脑瘫，糖尿病，巴雷综合征，脑髓和脊髓损伤等被认为无法治疗的病症。Beike是如此之成功，它现在正在建造21500平方英尺的干细胞 储存库，并雇佣了哈佛大学等美国高校的教授。加利福尼亚的两个家庭甚至带着孩子飞往中国，治疗孩子的脑瘫。Beike的创始人Sean Hu博士满腔热情，他声称他的公司正在探索利用干细胞延长寿命的设想，使寿命能超过120年。source: solidot-------------评价：因为小布什的宗教信仰，美国在干细胞研究上落后中国了。</summary><link rel='replies'

据《科学》杂志报道，英国研究人员正计划设立世界最大的双胞胎信息登记库。   伦敦精神病学研究所行为遗传学家Robert Plomin说：“我们发展双胞胎银行已经快一年了。”他和伦敦国王学院遗传流行病学家Timothy Spector正合作推进这一项目。   Plomin表示，英国医疗保健系统资助的一项初步研究估计，至少有30万对双胞胎同意参与这一项目。这一数字将超过世界上所有双胞胎登记库全部记录的总和。确定双胞胎是同卵还是异卵，将为研究遗传和环境对健康的影响“增加巨大的价值”。   Plomin和Spector目前正在四处寻求资助。英国医学研究委员会已经决定无法支持该项目。二人预计该项目将需要耗费1200万英镑，以从自1920年以来出生的30万对双胞胎身上取样DNA。（科学网 梅进/编译）   更多阅读   《科学》相关报道（英文）  source: 科学网</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml'
