Regenerate Newsletter – June 2019
The June 2019 of the ARMI newsletter, Regenerate, is now available to view in the ‘Resources’ section. Here are some of the highlights for ARMI in June: Understanding How We Grow: How ARMI Scientists Are Unlocking the Secrets of Bones Maddie’s Vision Furthers Research on Bone Marrow Failure Decoding DDX5: Understanding Male Fertility Finding the Founder Cells: […]
Maddie’s Vision Furthers Research on Bone Marrow Failure
Thanks to a recent grant from Bone Marrow Failure Syndrome (BMFS) charity Maddie’s Vision, ARMI’s Professor Lieschke is continuing in his efforts to improve outcomes for patients with haematological diseases. Despite being established only four years ago, Maddie Riewoldt’s Vision has already raised over $7million to fund Bone Marrow Failure Syndrome (BMFS) research. One of the recent […]
Finding the Founder Cells: Determining the Origin of Pluripotency In Vitro
In the lab, stem cells begin their life in a cell culture dish by first assembling into organised colonies. This particular colony architecture is re-established every time the cells are subdivided and expanded. However, why and how this occurs has been a mystery, until now. Recently published research involving ARMI scientists has found a distinct […]
Foetal growth restriction: How scientists are unlocking the secrets of bones
In a bid to help prevent disorders such as foetal growth restriction, researchers at the Monash University-based Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute (ARMI) are examining the body’s response to developmental defects. Severe foetal growth restriction (also known as intrauterine growth restriction) accounts for about one in 20 stillborn births in Australia. The term refers to when […]
Decoding DDX5: Understanding Male Fertility
The maintenance of sperm production is tightly controlled and coordinated, with a number of molecular mediators involved in the process. New research from ARMI has found that DDX5 is vital for male fertility, outlining the multifaceted role this protein has. Adult mouse seminiferous tubule cross-section showing nuclear expression of DDX5 in all VASA-positive germ cells. […]

Multiple Sclerosis: How ARMI’s Research Efforts are Paving the Way for New Treatments
Here at the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute, we’re investigating the potential of regenerative medicine to treat, and hopefully, one day, reverse neurodegenerative diseases, such as Multiple Sclerosis. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) affects more than 25,000 Australians and impacts more young people in the country than any other chronic progressive brain disease. With this troubling fact, it is […]
