THE 10TH ANNUAL MEETING
Last Update : May 17, 2004 Peace on Earth
May the New Year bring you prosperity and joy ! Many thanks and Welcome !
Although many cancelled visits to the 9th Annual Meeting due to SARS, the meeting was able to be held in great success. We would like to express our greatest gratitude to the attendees who participated and made the meeting so beneficial under such difficult circumstances.
Now, we are planning on a new exciting program. In addition to the usual annual meeting of JSGT, we are arranging a joint symposium with Molecular Biology of Hematopoiesis (MBH). We are expecting a great many of your participation in the 10th Annual Meeting of JSGT-2004, and looking forward to seeing you again in Tokyo.

Gene Therapy and Tissue Engineering in Sports Medicine
Vladimir Martinek, MD; Freddie H. Fu, MD; Johnny Huard, PhD THE PHYSICIAN AND SPORTSMEDICINE - VOL 28 - NO. 2 - FEBRUARY 2000 In Brief: Treatment of sports injuries has improved through sophisticated rehabilitation programs, novel operative techniques, and advances in biomechanical research during the past two decades. Despite considerable progress, treatments remain limited due to poor healing capacity for anterior or posterior cruciate ligament rupture, central meniscal tear, cartilage lesions, and delayed bone fracture. New biological approaches seek to treat these injuries with growth factors to stimulate and hasten the healing process. Gene therapy using the transfer of defined genes such as those encoding growth factors represents a promising way to deliver therapeutic proteins to the injured tissue. Tissue engineering, which may eventually be combined with gene therapy, offers the potential to create tissues or scaffolds for regeneration of defects occurring from trauma. T he treatment of sports-related injuries has improved continuously during the last two decades. New, minimally invasive operative techniques, especially arthroscopy, novel instruments, modern rehabilitation and medications, as well as increasing knowledge of joint biomechanics and trauma pathophysiology, have enhanced and accelerated therapy. Despite this progress, deficits in injury treatment remain because of the limited healing capacity of certain musculoskeletal system tissues. Ligaments, tendons, menisci, and articular cartilage have a limited blood supply and a slow cell turnover. For this reason, healing is prolonged and often results in the formation of a dysfunctional scar or a tissue defect.

Gene therapy for Parkinson's disease begins
Story Tools RELATED Painkillers may cut Parkinson's risk HEALTH LIBRARY Health Library What is Parkinson's disease? NEW YORK (AP) Researchers slipped billions of copies of a gene into the brain of a Parkinson's disease patient Monday, marking the first attempt to test gene therapy in a person with that disease. The patient, 55-year-old Nathan Klein of Port Washington, New York, said he was "feeling fine" in a telephone interview a few hours after the surgery. Klein said the disease gave him a tremor in his right arm, and made him shuffle and have to catch himself sometimes from falling. Medicines offer some relief, he said, but when he heard about the new study he decided to volunteer. With the disease, "you don't want to go out," Klein said. "It's embarrassing when you're shaking a lot and you walk like an old man." Klein is the first of a planned 12 patients for the study, said the surgeon, Dr. Michael Kaplitt of Weill Cornell Medical College. The research is focused on the procedure's safety, rather than whether or not it relieves symptoms. "Our whole goal here is to prove this is safe before we move on," Kaplitt said.

Predicted Hazard of Gene Therapy A Reality
Dr. Mae-Wan Ho calls for a comprehensive review of gene therapy and other transgenic technologies, for they carry similar risks. The French team that made news in 2000 treating children with severe combined immune deficiency (SCID) had to call a halt to the gene therapy trial. One of the ten children treated has developed what looks like leukaemia. SCID is attributed to a mutation in a gene on the X-chromosome. Alain Fischer and Marina Cavezzena-Calvo at the Necker Hospital in Paris pioneered the ex vivo procedure, in which bone marrow cells taken from the patient are transformed outside the body, using a vector carrying a normal copy of the mutated gene to insert the gene into the genome. The transgenic cells are then re-introduced into the patient. This was hailed as a breakthrough for gene therapy, as it avoided most of the risks of

Some human diseases are caused by a defective gene. An example is cystic fibrosis , a disease of mucous glands throughout the body that usually develops during childhood and makes breathing increasingly difficult. IF a child receives two copies of the defective gene call the CF gene one copy from each parent then the child will develop the disease. Biotechnology is used in several ways in detecting, diagnosing and treating cystic fibrosis.
  • Genetic testing or screening enables healthy people to know whether they carry one copy of the CF gene. If both potential parents have one copy each of the CF gene, then the genetic counselor can provide information and help assess whether the couple may have a child who will develop cystic fibrosis. Genetic testing can alert parents their child has two copies of the CF gene, permitting diagnosis even before the disease develops in the child. Children with cystic fibrosis can enjoy some relief from the mucus buildup in their lungs by breathing in a mucus-breaking drug made with recombinant DNA technology. The drug contains a protein that chews up the DNA so the mucus is easier to remove from the lungs by coughing. An experimental approach to curing cystic fibrosis uses a genetically engineered cold virus that delivers to the patient's lung cells a working version of the defective gene. The new gene enables lung cells to make the protein that is lacking in cystic fibrosis patients.

    Mission Statement
    The mission of the Department of Radiation Oncology is to improve the treatment outcomes of all diseases treated with radiation and to find new medical uses of radiation. Related to these goals are the education of graduate students, post-doctoral students and residents who will enter the field of radiation medicine including the allied fields of Medical Physics and Radiation Therapy. The Department of Radiation Oncology provides state-of-the-art anti-cancer therapy for patients through the use of new technology and through the continuous review of patient treatment outcome. We will continue to evaluate and improve the therapeutic effects of radiation from five fronts: 1) Basic science research to indentify new biological modifiers and therapeutic targets.
    2) Interaction with industry (pharmaceutical, imaging and radiotherapy) to validate the efficacy of new therapeutic tools.
    3) Medical phyiscs research to improve the accuracy, precision and methods of radiotherapy delivery.
    4) Clinical research to study the benefits of new therapy treatments in patients
    5) Development of new radiotherapy facilities throughout the region to provide the best care for all patients.

    Home Search
    Gene Therapy Potent Against Advanced Prostate Cancer Researchers at UCLA's Jonsson Cancer Center have shown for the first time that immunotherapy delivered via gene therapy may prove to be a potent weapon in the fight against locally advanced prostate cancer, according to an article published Sunday (May 20) in the peer-reviewed journal Human Gene Therapy Lead author Dr. Arie Belldegrun, chief of urologic oncology at the Jonsson Cancer Center, said his early phase study suggests that intra-tumoral immunotherapy, in combination with surgery to remove the prostate, represents a new option for treating men with cancer that has spread beyond the boundaries of the prostate. Historically, prostate cancer was believed to be resistant to immunotherapy. Belldegrun said his study proves otherwise. "Based on our earlier studies in the laboratory, which were published in the journal Cancer , we suspected that this approach might work in humans," he said. "We did not know, however, that gene therapy and immunotherapy could be options for patients with locally advanced prostate cancer, a high-risk group to whom we have little to offer right now." The study outlined in the article involves injecting gene-based immunotherapy using an ultrasound guidance system directly into the diseased prostate prior to surgery or after the failure of radiation therapy.
