Scientists reveal gene-swapping technique. Should scientists be playing GOD ?
Scientists reveal gene-swapping technique. Should scientists be playing GOD ? It is a procedure that could prevent children from inheriting rare, incurable diseases such as stroke, blindness, deafness, kidney failure and heart disease. Healthy embryos are being created using two women and one man. Scientists are trying to eliminate defects that affect an estimated one in 4000 children. But it is stirring the ethics debate. There are a lot of questions about the morality of having babies with three parents, the implications for the child #39;s descendants, and the prospect of babies-to-order. The research for the new technique is being conducted at Oregon Health and Science University in the US. The procedure still needs US federal government approval to be tested on humans. In 2009, scientists were able to create eggs with DNA transplants from Rhesus monkeys. Four developed into healthy animals. The team has now used the same technique to create human embryos, with about half having abnormalities. But they say some 20 per cent of the eggs did produce embryos that would have been suitable for transfer back into the mother. So is science creating so-called designer babies? And should scientists be allowed to interfere with nature? To discuss this on Inside Story with presenter Zami Zeidan are guests: Josephine Quintavalle, the director of Core-ethics, a public interest group focusing on the ethics of human reproduction; Laurie Zoloth, a professor in biotechs and medical ...From:Conspirafied0Views:45 0ratingsTime:25:02More inNews Politics

FMR1 Gene May Control Women’s Fertility Life Cycle, According to Research from Center for Human Reproduction
Research from a leading New York infertility center suggests that the FMR1 gene influences the age at which a woman reaches menarche.
New York, NY (PRWEB) October 22, 2012
The study, conducted by researchers from the Center for Human Reproduction (CHR), a leading fertility center in New York City, and the Medical University of Vienna in Austria, compared the age of menarche (start of menstruation) and the number of CGG tri-nucleotide repeats on the FMR1 gene. Among the 222 women studied, a significant relationship was identified between the age of menarche and CGG counts. Specifically, women with at least one FMR1 allele with CGG counts higher than 34 were more likely to reach menarche after age 13 compared to women with CGG counts on both FMR1 alleles below 34.
The FMR1 gene has long been associated with neuro-psychiatric conditions, but only in recent years it has been shown to have controlling effects on womens ovarian function. While for neuro-psychiatric risks, the FMR1 gene is considered normal up to CGG repeats of 55, the CHR investigators defined CGG counts between 26 and 34 as normal (norm) in regards to ovarian function, with CGG counts higher than 34 being defined as high and those lower than 26 as low. In a number of prior publications, the same group demonstrated genotypes and sub-genotypes of the FMR1 gene to be statistically associated with different ovarian aging patterns and IVF pregnancy rates.
This study revealed that women with at least one high FMR1 allele tend to start their reproductive life later than women with low or norm alleles, explains Norbert Gleicher, MD, Medical Director and Chief Scientists of CHR. The finding further strengthens our hypothesis that the FMR1 gene has a significant influence on how a womans ovaries reach maturity, and then decline with age, defining her reproductive life cycle over her lifetime.
Further studies are needed to better define how to predict a womans reproductive potential as she moves through life, based on FMR1 genotypes and sub-genotypes. Currently, prediction of female reproductive potential is difficult, and often impossible. Utilization of FMR1 genotypes and sub-genotypes may potentially open up new opportunities.
About Center for Human Reproduction
The Center for Human Reproduction (CHR, http://www.centerforhumanreprod.com/), located in New York City, is one of the worlds leading fertility centers. Because of its worldwide reputation as "fertility center of last resort, CHR has a worldwide patient following among women with DOR, whether due to advanced age, or due to premature ovarian aging (POA). Dr. Gleicher is available for further comments.

Herbal supplements in pregnancy: unexpected results from a multicentre study
STUDY QUESTION
How common is the use of herbal supplements during pregnancy and does it adversely affect the pregnancy outcome?
SUMMARY ANSWER
The use of herbal products during pregnancy is very common and daily almond oil spreading is associated with preterm birth (PTB).
WHAT IS KNOWN AND WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS
Herbal drugs are often promoted as ‘natural’ and ‘safe’ and such claims attract pregnant women. More than a quarter of Italian pregnant women consume herbs every day for at least 3 months during pregnancy. We raise an alert over the habit of daily almond oil spreading since it seems to be associated with PTB.
DESIGN
A multicenter retrospective cohort study performed over a 15-month period.
PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING
Seven hundred women interviewed within 3 days of childbirth, in three public hospitals in northern Italy.
MAIN RESULTS AND ROLE OF CHANCE
One hundred and eighty-nine women were considered ‘regular users’, since they consumed herbs every day, for at least 3 months. Almond oil, chamomile and fennel were the most commonly used herbs. Both length of gestation and birthweight were affected by herb consumption. Almond oil users showed more pre-term birth (29 of 189) than non-users (51 of 511). After adjusting for multiple pregnancies, smoking, advanced age and drug intake, almond oil users maintained an increased risk to give birth <37th week (odds ratio = 2.09, 95% confidence interval: 1.08–4.08).
BIAS, CONFOUNDING AND OTHER REASONS FOR CAUTION
The association between daily spreading of almond oil and PTB only raises a hypothesis that requires confirmation in larger trials devoted to this topic. The relatively small sample size did not allow the investigation of other adverse pregnancy outcomes in herb users.
GENERALIZABILITY TO OTHER POPULATIONS
The population under investigation did not significantly differ from the general population attending the same hospitals.
STUDY FUNDING/COMPETING INTEREST(S)
No conflict of interest exists. The study has been supported by a public grant from the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia.
TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER
None
