Essay On Therapeutic Cloning
Dear Cantwell,
My name is Briana Cibrian and I am a junior at Anacortes high school in Anacortes Washington. I approve on the subject of cloning but the kind of cloning that should be available is therapeutic cloning and not reproductive cloning.
Therapeutic cloning is the use of technology to help find possible cures, and treatments for diseases and disabilities. In addition, I want you to vote on this because therapeutic cloning can help many people. Therapeutic cloning can benefit many people in the field of medicine. According to Simon Smith ‘’..cloning may lead to a cure for heart attacks, a revolution for cosmetic surgery, and organs for organ transplantation’’.
One of the reasons that therapeutic cloning can be useful is that it can help make vital organs. This would be helpful because people suffering kidney and other disorders, who are forced to wait for years for a replacement organ (‘’The Pros’’). If we had therapeutic cloning then people wouldn’t have to wait so long for a replacement organ. The organ would be an exact match of the patient’s DNA. The vital organ would be made out of the patient's own cell, doctors wouldn’t have to worry about organ or tissue rejection by the immune system of the patient. Another reason that it …show more content…
74% of americans want to put research into therapeutic cloning, so researchers can study more about it. If we had therapeutic cloning then we would find cures for diseases like leukemia, parkinson's disease, cancer, heart attacks, alzheimer's, cosmetic surgery, diabetes, and many more. If therapeutic cloning using embryos is a success than with finding new cures we would save countless of lives and increase the life of countless others. Like for diabetes would use insulin secreting, and nerve cells in stroke for parkinson’s disease. With further advances in understanding of how organs regenerate it would increase the possible treatments that could be
