Is It Time to Give Up on Therapeutic Cloning? A Q&A with Ian Wilmut [Features]
Lundi 21 Juillet 2008 - 22:00 - 5 mois, 2 semaines depuis - 5 lectures - Presse spécialisée - Scientific American
Ian Wilmut, famed for creating Dolly the cloned sheep, announced recently that he is abandoning the technique to concentrate on a popular new approach: making induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Such cells would get around the ethical and legal issues surrounding embryonic stem cell work, of which cloning, or somatic cell nuclear transfer, has been an integral part. For the Insights story, "No More Cloning Around," in the August 2008 Scientific American, Sally Lehrman asked Wilmut about his change in focus, whether somatic cell nuclear transfer is still relevant, and what lessons he learned in his experience with Dolly. Here is an edited excerpt of that interview. [More]

Antibiotic Resistance: Blame It on Lifesaving Malaria Drug? [News]
Lundi 21 Juillet 2008 - 12:00 - 5 mois, 2 semaines depuis - 5 lectures - Presse spécialisée - Scientific American
A new study shows that overuse of a drug used to prevent and treat malaria may be contributing to growing antibiotic resistance. Researchers report in the journal PLoS ONE that Escherichia coli bacteria resistant to the antibiotic ciprofloxacin were detected in the digestive tracts of villagers from remote rainforest communities in Guyana who had been given the drug chloroquine to prevent and treat malaria, a potentially fatal disease spread by mosquitoes. This is the first study to show that resistance can emerge in individuals never exposed to the antibiotic, which is used throughout the world to treat bacterial infections, including pneumonia, urinary tract infections and sexually transmitted diseases."Ten to 15 years ago, resistance to ciprofloxacin was rare. [Now], outside of remote populations, cipro resistance in hospitals and the community at large is becoming a problem," says Andrew Simor, a senior scientist at the Sunnybrook Health Sciences Center at the University of Toronto, who was not involved in the study. "E. coli is one of the most common causes of infections in humans. A decade ago it was nearly universally susceptible to ciprofloxacin." Today, he says, as many as 30 percent of hospital patients tested have E. coli that failed to respond to ciprofloxacin, which is the drug of choice for treating these bacteria. [More]
