Quotes

...from animals, scientists have devised ways to skip the embryo stage and coax stem cells directly from mature human cells such as skin fibroblasts. "We have had years to develop techniques to work with induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, and it will require head-to-head comparisons to determine how these new cell lines are different, and if they are any better" Pang said

..."The technique isnt new the results are," reports Al Jazeera's Alan Fisher. "Microscopic genetic material was taken from an adult cell. It was then inserted into an egg whose own DNA had been removed. This creates human embryonic stem cells, which are capable of becoming any of the more than 200 types of cells that make up a person. Thats important because those cells could be used to treat devastating conditions such as multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries, heart disease or Parkinsons."
