INTRODUCTION An important aspect of any biotechnological processes is the culture of animal cells in artificial media. These animal cells in culture are used in recombinant DNA technology‚ genetic manipulations and in a variety of industrial processes. Now-a -days it has become possible to use the cell and tissue culture in the areas of research which have a potential for economic value and commercialization. The animal cell cultures are being extensively used in production of vaccines‚ monoclonal antibodies

Synchronizing Cells at Specific Stages of the Cell Cycle The protocols presented here describe procedures used to synchronize cells in various stages of the cell cycle (Fig. 8.3.1). Synchronization is particularly useful for investigating a particular cell cycle–regulated event or preparing cells for extraction of transient factors whose expression is dependent on cell cycle stage. Exponentially growing cultures are generally asynchronous; i.e.‚ each cell progresses through the cell cycle independently

Pluripotent Stem Cells and Embryonic Stem Cells Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells made from human somatic cells are a very recent technology of our world. They were first created using mice in 2006‚ and were created from human cells in 2007 by Japanese and US scientists. For many people‚ they represent a beautiful work of science that will help to save many lives. Induced pluripotent stem cells are human skin cells that have been reprogrammed to have the stem cells ability to differentiate

of change. Carcinogenesis is the development of cancer. Cancer cells are abnormal cells and they have characteristics that can be associated with their ability to grow uncontrollably. Cancer cells are non-specialized‚ and divide uncontrollably. Cancer in situ is a tumor located in its place of origin. Malignant tumors establish new tumor distant from the primary tumors. Cancer cells characteristics distinguish them from normal cells. They have abnormal nuclei with many chromosomal irregularities

Normal cells undergo cell division in an orderly process known as the cell cycle. In this process‚ normal cells send chemical signals to pass between neighboring cells. This keeps the rate of cell division equal to the rate of cell death. Cancer cells break free from normal constraints and follows it’s own pattern of cell division. Cancer cells divide much more often than normal cells which produces a mass of cells‚ also called a tumor. Proto-oncogenes makes proteins that encourage cell division

of stem cell research. Stem cells offer people hope by promising to greatly extend the number and range of patients who could benefit from transplants‚ and to provide novel therapies to treat debilitating diseases such as diabetes‚ Parkinson’s‚ Huntington’s‚ heart disease and stroke‚ as well as accidental damage such as spinal cord injury. So why would anyone object to research in this area? The problem is simply that a particular type of stem cell‚ which potentially could provide many cell types for
