John B. Gurdon and Shinya Yamanaka, who won this year&#8217;s Nobel Prize in science after they genetically altered adult stem cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) &#8212; which mirror the qualities of embryonic stem cells. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Whenever a breakthrough such as that is made, it becomes a rung on the ladder that leads to further development,&#8221; Dr. Ahmad said.  <\/p>\n<p><B>A different mechanism<\/B><\/p>\n<p>Rather than use genetic manipulation, Dr. Ahmad&#8217;s team soaks the adult limbal stem cells in an enhanced tissue culture. The soak in the solution changes the molecular make-up of the limbal cells so they become iPSCs. <\/p>\n<p>Dr. Ahmad&#8217;s team has transplanted its new IPSCs into the retinas of mice with experimental glaucoma. Early tests show that the cells have started to transform into retinal cells that degenerate in glaucoma. They have shown that these newly generated retinal cells make the neural connections needed to restore sight. <\/p>\n<p><B>Research&#8217;s promise leads to support<\/B><\/p>\n<p>Further tests will show if sight is restored, Dr. Ahmad said, but the work has shown enough promise to secure a $1.48 million, four-year R01 grant from the National Institutes of Health. <\/p>\n<p>The newly created retinal cells also can be studied to see what genes are responsible for sight degeneration and what genes fight vision loss. This could lead to drugs that block the degenerative genes or bolster the genes that fight vision loss, Dr. Ahmad said. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve shown that changing the environment around these adult stem cells can change the cells themselves,&#8221; Dr. Ahmad said. &#8220;We now seek more efficient ways to create these transformative environments to cultivate these powerful cells that may offer hope to so many.&#8221;<\/p>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"\/secure-location.php\" style=\"display: none;\" title=\"sM V zbKLSxrJ kbAX\">sM V zbKLSxrJ kbAX<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UNMC researchers have built on Nobel Prize-winning research to devise a new way to create powerful stem cells that could cure several conditions that cause blindness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":94,"featured_media":41860,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-41861","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","topic-research","department-college-of-medicine","department-ophthalmology-and-visual-sciences","department-unmc-front-page","department-unmc-today-todays-headlines"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Adult stem cell breakthrough builds on Nobel Prize winners&#039;
