]]> Comment on Zebrafish used to visualize blood stem cell generation by Stem Cell Clinic http://masonposner.com/afisheyeview/2010/03/zebrafish-used-to-visualize-blood-stem-cell-generation/comment-page-1/#comment-9546 Stem Cell Clinic Sat, 08 May 2010 18:47:18 +0000 http://masonposner.com/afisheyeview/?p=388#comment-9546 What is interesting is that we have already treated a number of patients with heart failure and other vascular diseases such as critical limb ischimia with great success using adult stem cells. The source of the cells is the patients own fat or bone marrow or in some cases blood from the umbilical cord left over after a baby is born. None of these have any ethical issues and the stem cells havested are able to repair blood vessels and the heart itself in real people. This has been verified not only by improvements in symptoms, but, also objective lab tests such as the ejection fraction which falls so low before heart failure becomes fatal.

I am curious how you did it. I work on flies. Now, we want to use zebrafish to test the gene in blood or blood vessel. I totally have no idea. I am wondering if I can have your email address or request some zebrafish. Thank you for sharing your research! It is a really nice movie. I am curious how you did it.

We loved having all of you at the house. Smart students with wonderful professors make fine guests! The Outer Banks hopes you all return soon! Thank the 2 Rachels for me for their nice notes!

It's from a real student, and sitting in a colleague's office. It is not an AU student if you were wondering. It wouldn’t be nearly as funny if it was a joke.
