Band of Federally Funded Fetal Tissue Research
Congress bands almost all research of federal funded fetal tissue. But the National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research requires guidelines. -
Cells found in Human Cord Blood
Dr. Gregor Pindull announce a finding of a stem cell in the human cord blood. He had found a type of stem cell called haematopoietic. This produces more cells for a medical reason. -
Cancer Stem Cell
A new cancer stem cell was discovered. Leukemia was found inside a stem cells. With this, it may produce more cells spreading the disease. It mostly starts from tumors in many organs. -
New Cell Generator
At Kyoto University, an embryonic stem cell was created and generated. It introduced 4 genes into a connective tissue cell or skin cell. Soon they named the cell induced pluripotent stem cells. -
Blindness Treatment
2 patients of blindness and were treated with stem cells. Within 4 months there eyes eased having a little vision. They recieved retinal pigment epithelial cells. these were made from human embryonic stem cells. -
Recovery of Stem Cells
From cloned human embryos, scientis recovered teh stem cells. It was a long lasting goal to treat diseases. It can lead into cures for illnesses such as Parkinson's Disease or even diabetes.
