Hwang claimed his
stem cells did not result from parthenogenesis, but George Daley, head of the study, showed that the genome of Hwang's
cell line has a genetic signature that indicates it sprang from a
parthenogenetic embryo.
As a result, in late June, more than a year after Science retracted the 2004 paper, researchers at ISC were able to claim the discovery of human
parthenogenetic cell lines as their own in the journal Cloning and
Stem Cells.
The group reported growing multiple
parthenogenetic embryonic
stem cell lines by incubating eggs in a warm, low - oxygen culture medium.
According to a new analysis, the
cell line they created represented the first example of
parthenogenetic human embryonic
stem (ES)
cells.
