There's hope," [Gavin Myshrall]'s father [Trevor Myshrall] said on Friday from his home in Dugald. "There's a chance he can show some improvement. We know he won't walk out of there and be 100 per cent, but there's a chance he can get some improvement. Because none of the costs are covered by Manitoba Health, Gavin's family is holding a "Bud, Spud and Steak" fundraiser on Friday to help pay for the treatment to China The event goes from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. Tickets cost $15.

It's a great breakthrough for all of us working on stem cells for muscular dystrophy," said researcher Johnny Huard of the University of Pittsburgh, who wasn't involved in the work. The study was published online Wednesday by the journal Nature. It used stem cells taken from the affected dogs or other dogs, rather than from embryos. For human use, the idea of using such "adult" stem cells from humans would avoid the controversial method of destroying human embryos to obtain stem cells. * These studies used so-called "adult" stem cells, which are found in the tissues of humans and animals. Much of the controversy has focused on "embryonic" human stem cells, which appear about five days after conception.

When researchers in Wisconsin and Japan announced last month that they had independently engineered skin cells to behave like embryonic stem cells, the achievement seemed to be the pinnacle of stem cell science. Until then, human embryonic stem cells could be produced only by destroying embryos. Jim Huettner, a cell biologist at Washington University, is one of the few people with firsthand knowledge of what human embryonic stem cells can and can't do. Huettner runs the only laboratory in St. Louis currently conducting research with human embryonic stem cells. Existing embryonic stem cells probably won't be used in people because they are contaminated with animal sugars that would cause the human immune system to reject them if transplanted.
