Research: Some recent research over the disorder occurred in August of 2015 when a paper was published over some research being done by a company called "Elixergen" that claimed a new potential therapy for Down syndrome had been discovered. By introducing a gene called ZSCAN 4 into a cell line from people with down syndrome researchers had been able to produce cells containing the typical number of chromosomes. They had effectively converted an extra chromosome 21 in every cell into a mosaic syndrome, or a combination of cells, some with an extra chromosome and some without. Mosaicisms occur in some individuals with Down syndrome naturally , but this was a mosaic condition that was rather made through genetic therapy, leading to very hopeful thoughts for the future. Furthermore, in July 2013, others had claimed that a cure for Down syndrome had been discovered. Dr. Jeanne Lawrence had discovered a way to totally silence the extra 21st chromosome in a stem cell line from an individual with Down syndrome. She made clear that her discovery was in no way a “cure,” but the headlines that followed the publication of her research, caused some exchange among people regarding what a “cure” might mean for the Down syndrome community. In this way, when people attempt to find "cures" or treatments for down syndrome, it is often very controversial because many people don't believe there's anything needed to be cured and work to provide further acceptance and inclusion of those with down syndrome; however, they greatly overlook the vast majority of those with down syndrome that wish to have a "cure" or at least lessen the effects so the can live a more normal life. Some people also share these views which is why there are researchers still trying to find better, more efficient treatments despite contrasting views of others.
