Stem Cell Research Once an egg cell is fertilized‚ it will undergo division and become an embryo. As an embryo‚ stem cells that are able to becoming many types of cells in the human body. Scientist research by getting embryos in two ways. A couple’s sperm and eggs are fertilized on a experimental dish where the egg develops into embryos‚ which after are implanted in the female. The second way in which scientists get embryos is therapeutic cloning. This technique merges a cell with a donor egg. The

Stem Cell Research and its Implications LAS 432 Perry Furgason Shannon Johnson Kelly Hanson Kimberly Houser 10/05/2014 Introduction Stem cells are unspecialized cells that have the ability through cell division to become specialized cells. These cells possess regenerative properties for longer periods of time than other cells. And‚ in certain conditions can be induced to become tissue or organ specific cells. By seeking to understand their regenerative process‚ scientists can treat

Huntington ’s disease John Doe HCS/245 10/20/2013 Prof Jane Huntington ’s disease In 1993 researchers discovered the gene that causes Huntington’s disease. (Huntington ’s disease Society of America‚ 8/27) Huntington’s disease is a disease which progressively degenerates cells in the brain slowly over time. Since the nerve cells in the brain are slowly dying it causes uncontrollable movements‚ emotion changes and other forms of determination of psychological aspects. (The Diagnosis and

Crohn’s Disease Shauna Griffin Immunology Spring 2016 April 23‚ 2016 Dr. Turner Crohn’s disease‚ also known as Ileitis‚ is a chronic‚ inflammatory disease involving the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract). The main purpose of the GI tract is to break down food in order to allow the nutrients to be absorbed effectively. This is extremely important to the body’s functioning and overall performance. The GI tract is essential for energy‚ growth and repair and it is because of these reasons that Crohn’s

Against Stem Cell Research Research on stem cells is knowledge constantly being explored about how an organism evolves from a single cell and how cells in good condition are put in place of cells that no longer work. The outcome that is anticipated from doing this research is that if scientist can fine tune stem cells into regular cells like blood or heart muscles and put it back into the body‚ then possibly they may find a cure for some of the widespread diseases that exist in our world

Stem Cell Research Products - Opportunities‚ Tools‚ and Technologies Stem cells are primitive cells found in all multi-cellular organisms that are characterized by self-renewal and the capacity to differentiate into any mature cell type. Stem cells are still a relatively new discovery‚ as the first mouse embryonic stem cells were derived from embryos in 1981‚ but it was not until 1995 that the first successful culturing of embryonic stem cells from non-human primates occurred and not until November

02 Spring 2002 March 15‚ 2002 Cloning‚ and Stem Cell Research Technology has advanced a great deal within the past few years. We have learned so much information about animal’s genes and what can be done with them. However‚ with this new information brings new questions and arguments. So far‚ scientists have successfully cloned a sheep‚ a monkey‚ a bull‚ and are working on an endangered breed of ox‚ of course cloning animals and conducting research on those animals does not concern many people
