| News Hound  |  Ars Technica // Gene therapy success story Gene therapy has proven to be promising, but the unexpected death of one test subject a couple of years ago put some testing on hold. A recent success may get the ball rolling again. Now comes news from a German and Swiss collaboration that have successfully treated patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), an immune deficiency, by removing bone marrow-derived stem cells from the patients, inserting the working copy of the target gene, and then replacing the modified cells. Good news, especially for one of the subjects who is able to stop taking antibiotics for his condition. There's also news on Titan's volcanos, the effect of some types of pornography on sperm motility, as well as climate change. http://feeds.feedburner.com/arstechnica/BAaf?m=588 | |
