American scientists were first able to grow in laboratory a healthy human embryo that can develop by full cycle.
According to The Daily mail, an artificial embryo was raised at Oregon University of Health and Science.
Scientists are going to use their technology to extract stem cells that are needed to treat serious illnesses, among which Alzheimer’s disease, brain damage and diffuse sclerosis.
The details of the method for growing human embryos, scientists do not disclosed. However, they told how to artificially create stem cells by opening them.
According to the medical development of scientists, to start growing stem cells need a patient skin sample and a donor egg healthy woman. Scientists remove DNA from the egg, after which inject one skin cell into it.
Under the influence of electric discharge, the patient’s skin cell begins develop and share. An embryo with stem grows in 6 days cells that can be implanted to the patient.
“Our discovery allows us to grow stem cells for patients with serious diseases and organ damage. Of course, there is still a lot to do before safe and reliable way to treat stem cells. But ours work is a sure step towards meeting regenerative medicine, “- convinced Dr. Shukharat Mitalipov.
Along with this, there are those who see the threat of illegal cloning people through the discovery of scientists in the United States. By this time clones could not develop purely in the laboratory, and so to raise a child, a surrogate mother was needed.
According to Dr. David King, with new technology to clone people without the participation of female volunteers became possible. Therefore her should be banned internationally.
