OMRF scientists share research and hope with patients and caregivers
Sometimes, a little hope is all you need. And hope is what the 15 Oklahoma patients, caregivers and Muscular Dystrophy Association physicians and staff who visited OMRF Friday got when they spoke with scientists about new research and discoveries that hold hope for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a form of muscular dystrophy.

OMRF researchers solve decades-old riddle
Scientists at OMRF think they have solved a riddle that has puzzled researchers since the 1970s. For more than three decades, researchers have debated whether two types of pathogen-fighting cells—known as B1 and B2 cells—come from the same source. At long last, OMRF scientists appear to have found an answer. That work could have important […]
Can you hear me now? OMRF scientists find previously unknown receptors on adult stem cells Discovery could provide new weapons in fight against leukemia, autoimmune diseases
For many years, researchers believed that stem cells in the bone marrow spent most of their existence in a slumber-like state, unaware of—and unaffected by—the daily battles fought by the body’s immune system. Not so. Scientists at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation have discovered that marrow stem cells—undifferentiated cells that eventually give rise to the […]
