Human chemical cloned
United Press International
BOSTON - Harvard researchers said yesterday that they have isolated and cloned a chemical that generates blood vessels, calling it the first substance shown to generate organs.
The new protein, named angiogenin, was isolated from a human tumor, colon adenocarcinoma, the same type of tumor that was removed from President Reagan's intestine in August.
Many lay people do not think of the circulatory system as an organ, but scientists do, and thus the Harvard
It was used to cause blood vessels in the cornea of a rabbit and in a chick embryo to divide and multiply.
"Generation of organs has been the stuff of scientific dreams for decades. It is now a reality," said Bert L. Vallee, who led the team of research scientists.
researchers consider their discovery the first time an organ-generating substance has been found.
The announcement at a news conference coincides with the publication in the journal Biochemistry of three articles by team members that describe the results of 12 years of research leading to the discoveries.
At the moment, it is exceedingly difficult to produce angiogenin, and researchers have turned their attention to producing the chemical in quantity so that it can be studied further, said James F. Riordan, a team member.
Neo-Nazi leader identified
SEATTLE — The leader of the neo-Nazi group The Order was identified yesterday by a teller as the lone gunman who herded bank employees into a vault, wished them a Merry Christmas and walked off with more than $25,000 in 1983.
City Bank teller Tammy Hyidahl
testified in the federal racketeing trial of 10 white supremacists charged with plotting a right-wing revolution financed by robberies and counterfeiting schemes.
The prosecution alleged The Order also committed two murders and planned assassinations of top Jewish leaders, liberals and others they considered "race traitors."
Hydahl identified Robert Mathews, the one-time leader of The Order, as the man who walked into a Seattle branch of City Bank on Dec. 20, 1983, showed her a handgun stuffed into his waistband and ordered her and other employees into the vault.

"He was mannerly and wished us a Merry Christmas." Hydlal testified.
