Cloned Human Embryos Successfully Reprogrammed Using Human - But Not Animal - Eggs »

Posted By Varadinum 9 months, 4 weeks ago in Health & Fitness

Advanced Cell Technology, Inc. and its collaborators reported today that human oocytes have the capacity to extensively reprogram adult human cells. The research, which appears online ahead of print in the journal Cloning and Stem Cells (Editor-in-Chief: Sir Ian Wilmut; published by Mary Ann Liebert, Inc.) demonstrates that although human-to-human clones (human clones) and human-to-animal clones (hybrids) appear similar, the pattern of reprogramming of the donor human cell is dramatically different. In contrast to the human-animal hybrids, the gene expression pattern of the human clones was highly similar to normal human embryos. The paper is available free online at www.liebertpub.com/clo.

      What makes you think that this hasn't already been accomplished?

        Science is amazing!!
        I can appreciate the human brain and all the things we've accomplished in the last 100 years.
        But has anyone take a moment to think...whats gonna happen in another 10 or 20 years??...what if all the cloned people go crazy?? or what if it alternates the way a real human is...and humanity becomes a bunch zombie like people.
        what is the world coming to??
