Japan's government on Friday gave its seal of approval to the world's first clinical trials using stem cells harvested from a patient's own body.
Health Minister Norihisa Tamura signed off on a proposal by two research institutes that will allow them to begin tests aimed at treating age-related macular degeneration (AMD) Lamarr Houston Texans Jersey , a common medical condition that causes blindness in older people, using "induced Pluripotent Stem (iPS) cells".
Stem cell research is a pioneering field that may offer a cure for conditions that are presently incurable, and scientists hope these clinical trials on a treatment for AMD may offer hope to millions of people robbed of their sight.
A government committee last month approved proposals for the tests, which will be jointly conducted by the Riken Center for Developmental Biology and the Institute of Biomedical Research and Innovation (IBRI) Hospital in the western city of Kobe.
Riken will harvest stem cells Jeremy Lane Texans Jersey , using skin cells taken from patients, a spokesman said.
The trial treatment will attempt to create retinal cells that can be transplanted into the eyes of six patients suffering from AMD, replacing the damaged part of the eye.
The transplant may be conducted as early as the middle of next year at the IBRI Hospital, he said.
AMD Benardrick McKinney Texans Jersey , a condition that is incurable at present, affects mostly middle-aged and older people and can lead to blindness. It afflicts around 700,000 people in Japan alone.
Stem cells are infant cells that can develop into any part of the body.
Until the discovery of iPS cells several years ago, the only way to obtain stem cells was to harvest them from human embryos.
This is controversial because it requires the destruction of the embryo Kevin Johnson Texans Jersey , a process that religious conservatives, among others, oppose.
Groundbreaking work done in 2006 by Shinya Yamanaka at Kyoto University, a Nobel Laureate in medicine last year Nick Martin Texans Jersey , succeeded in generating stem cells from adult skin tissue.
Like embryonic stem cells, iPS cells are also capable of developing into any cell in the body, but crucially their source material is readily available.

ISLAMABAD, Nov. 10 (Xinhua) -- The Pakistani Foreign Ministry said here Thursday that India intends to "further escalate tensions and undermine regional peace and security," citing the Indian forces used artillery on Wednesday in its cross Line of Control (LoC) shelling.
According to a statement by the ministry, the foreign secretary "deplored the use of artillery" by the Indian forces in Shahkot and Jura sectors on the LoC on Nov. 9 and highlighted that such weaponry had been used after 13 years, reflecting "India's intention to further escalate tensions and undermine regional peace and security."
Meanwhile, the foreign secretary called on the United Nations Military Observers Group for India and Pakistan (UNMOGIP) to maintain peace and tranquility at the LoC and the working boundary since it has the UN mandated responsibility, according to the statement.
"While Pakistan is fully cooperating and providing full access to UNMOGIP, we urge India to permit the UNMOGIP to visit and observe the LoC and the working boundary," the Pakistan top diplomat said.
He also urged India to investigate the continued incidents of unprovoked ceasefire violations on the LoC and the working boundary and ensure respect for the 2003 ceasefire understanding, in letter and spirit.
The statement again highlighted that "the indiscriminate firing and shelling" from the Indian side "deliberately" targeted villages and civilian populated areas in the last two months and has resulted in death of 26 civilians and injuries to 107, including women and children.
Pakistan on Thursday summoned Indian High Commissioner on the issue and condemned the continued unprovoked firing and ceasefire violations by the Indian forces on the LoC and the working boundary.
Escalation along the LoC in the disputed Kashmir region has been seen since the militants attacked an army base in the Indian-controlled Kashmir in September, killing 19 soldiers.
