- Company Profile:
The replacement of genetic material (nuclear DNA) in an unfertilized egg with genetic material from an adult somatic cell (e.g., skin cell). Stem cells that genetically match the adult somatic cell donor can be derived from this process.
Industry:Medical
the use of cloning technology to help in the search for possible cures and treatments for diseases and disabilities.
Industry:Medical
Primitive (undifferentiated) cells that have the potential to become a wide variety of specialized cell types (i.e., cardiac myocytes, neuronal, pancreatic). They are pluripotent cells derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst. Embryonic stem cells are NOT embryos and cannot become a complete organism.
Industry:Medical
The developing human organism (a group of cells) that arise from a fertilized egg (after merging of egg and sperm). An embryo does have the potential to become a complete organism. The embryonic stage ends at eight weeks of development.
Industry:Medical
the process by which stem cells acquire the features of specialized adult cells such as those found in heart, brain and pancreatic tissue.
Industry:Medical
cells found in the amniotic fluid that surrounds a fetus. They are not pluripotent like embryonic stem cells, but research has shown that they can differentiate into more cell types than adult stem cells.
Industry:Medical
undifferentiated cells that have the potential to become a limited number of specific cell types. These multipotent cells are found in small quantities in umbilical cord blood and adult tissues. There is limited evidence that one type of adult stem cells can produce cells that naturally come from another type of adult stem cells.
Industry:Medical
η χρήση των τεχνικών κλωνοποίησης για τη δημιουργία ενός παιδιού.
Industry:Medical
η χρήση της τεχνολογίας για να βοηθήσει στην αναζήτηση για πιθανές θεραπείες και θεραπείες για τις ασθένειες και την αναπηρία της κλωνοποίησης.
