Researchers at The Ohio State University Medical Center have begun studying the effects of a vaccine in slowing the onset of Alzheimer's disease or preventing it altogether.
"Approximately five million people suffer from Alzheimer's disease and the numbers continue to increase," says Dr. Douglas Scharre, a neurologist at Ohio State's Medical Center. "The first goal is to find a way to prevent the progression of the disease. If we can't prevent it, studies have shown that delaying the onset for five years would result in a 50 percent reduction in the number of cases."

It might be possible to grow human blood platelets in the laboratory for transfusion, according to a new study at The Ohio State University Medical Center.
The findings, published in the January 1, 2009 issue of the journal Experimental Hematology, might one day enable blood banks to grow platelets continuously and in quantities that can ease the chronically tight supply of these critical blood components
