Furthermore,
stem -
cell lines from mice begin to lose their ability to
produce many types of
cells after as few as 20 generations, and researchers assume the same will prove true for
stem cells from humans.
In the current study, the approach involved genetically manipulating such
stem cells to become stable immortalized
lines of platelet -

cells, the investigators
produced only 30 blastocysts (week - old embryos), from which they coaxed just one
stem cell line into being.

stem cell lines in which human embryos have already been destroyed, they also explicitly forbid funding for research on
stem cell lines that have been
produced by SCNT (see section V. part B).
KOMP2 and IMPC researchers will begin by creating
lines of knockout mice from embryonic

produces very few
stem cell lines.
Prior to the advent of iPSCs in 2007 the only method researchers may have had to
produce a genetically matched
stem cell line from a patient's own cells was Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer (SCNT), i.e., clon
cell line from a patient's own
cells was Somatic
Cell Nuclear Transfer (SCNT), i.e., clon
Cell Nuclear Transfer (SCNT), i.e., cloning.

stem cell line, e.g., had a success rate of under six percent, using 71 eggs to
produce four
stem cell lines from the embryos they created and destroyed.
One of those teams created a cloned embryo from the somatic
cells of a diabetic patient; this embryo was then destroyed in order to generate an insulin -

stem cell line.
Each
stem cell line they
produce gets submitted to a national registry — a clearinghouse to let scientists know which
lines are available for them to study using federal research grants.
Finally, he opened the door to funding research involving
stem cell lines created by
producing human embryos by somatic
