Introduction Leukemia has led to a significant change in the world of Science and Technology. It became the basis of research for discovering several possible cures to counter this killer disease. This is the beginning of a new medicinal era. Leukemia is a kind of cancer of the blood or bone marrow which is caused by an immature increase of white blood cells. These are called blasts. For several years‚ there are approximately 256‚ 000 children and adults around the world who have developed

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Applied to the Field of Regenerative Medicine Imagine having the opportunity to travel back in time with the power to alter the outcome of the future. As pleasing as this may sound‚ such occurrences just do not seem realistic or even possible in today’s world. Although‚ if we take a step back and look into time travel on a smaller scale‚ at the cellular level‚ it is indeed possible to revert to an earlier stage of life. Specifically focusing on terminally differentiated

Embryonic stem cells (ES cells) which are stem cells that are derived from the embryo and are capable of creating other cell types in the human body can assist the affected individuals maintain homeostasis in their bodies. Parents have the right to agree to the use embryonic stem cells as it will ensure wellbeing of the new born baby. However there are moral‚ ethical and religious matters which lead to people being against the use of ES cells. The state of “homeostasis” is

: Two arguments that goes against late-term abortion being immoral is subjectivism and utilitarianism.

According to English‚ she is arguing that‚ “Though the fetus is itself innocent‚ it may pose a threat to the pregnant woman’s well-being‚ life

Essentially‚ the Objectivist would reason that you should take the medicine anyways - even if the choice does not align with your desires - because as a human being‚ you have a duty to live for the sake (or object-given reason) of living out your life. In a less widely accepted and more cruelly (and seemingly suicidal) manner‚ Subjectivists claim that you have no reason to take the medicine or to keep on living. Accordingly‚ this counterexample defends the belief that there are in fact object-given

Embryonic Stem Cell Research: How does it affect you? Embryonic stem cell research is widely controversial in the scientific world. Issues on the ethics of Embryonic Stem (ES) cell research have created pandemonium in our society. The different views on this subject are well researched and supportive.

against the use of stem cells in medicine? Stem cells – often referred to as “the building blocks of the human body” are like the basic ingredient needed in order to create a human being. This is why large amounts of stem cells can be found in early stage embryos in comparison to the adult human body where there are not as many present. Stem cells are “unspecialized” cells which have the potential to produce different types of specialist cells such as brain‚ muscle‚ or tissue cells. On January the

And if so can scientist and doctors use this information to find a permanent cure or a better way to stop cancer? The vague knowledge about how cancer is formed is that our healthy genes are suddenly mutated. They are most likely mutated during a process called mitosis. Mitosis is apart of the cell life cycle.
