in a dangerous criminalization campaign against somatic-cell nuclear transfer, which is vital to development of stem-cell therapies. Somatic-cell nuclear transfer technologies promise creation and ...

In principle, somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is a potent tool for scientists looking to produce exact genetic replicas of a particular animal. By injecting a nucleus from an adult cell into ...

The researchers then made the stem cells morph into spinal motor neurons, the very ones that die in ALS. It's a milestone ... therapeutic cloning, or somatic-cell nuclear transfer.

Using somatic cell nuclear transfer, a team of scientists led by Dr. Dieter Egli at the New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF) Research Institute and Dr. Mark Sauer at Columbia University Medical ...

New research indicates that a rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta), cloned using somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), has successfully survived for over two years. The cloning of rhesus monkeys may ...

Derivation of embryonic stem (ES) cells genetically identical to a patient by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) holds the potential to cure or alleviate the symptoms of many degenerative ...

It's the first time the technology, called somatic cell nuclear transfer, has been used to clone any close relative of humans. Sponsor Message The researchers hope to use the advance to create ...

The cloning method, known as somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) has been used to clone animals before—most notably Dolly the sheep, which was cloned in Scotland in 1996 and announced the ...

When Missouri's elected representatives arrive to work for the 2005 legislative session this week, they will have their hands full of material about the ethics and implications of a proposed statewide ...

Study confirms that somatic cell nuclear transfer, an alternate method of creating patient-specific pluripotent stem cells, can be used to reprogram adult cells. Mice have been cloned from single ...

In June 2005, Hwang and coworkers at Seoul National University 1 reported that pluripotent human embryonic stem cells can efficiently be generated by nuclear transfer from a wide variety of ...
