Guidelines for human embryonic stem cell research

Article Abstract:

The US National Academies set up a committee to develop guidelines for the appropriate conduct of the human embryonic stem (hES) cell research in response to the concerns among the scientific community that the field is progressive without adequate guidance. The scientific community and its supporting institutions are urged to adopt the voluntary guidelines in order to establish a common framework for this important field.

Embryonic stem cells without embryos?

Article Abstract:

Robert Lanza and colleagues from the biotech company Advanced Cell Technology, shows that single blastomeres can be extracted from mouse morulae at the eight-cell stage, aggregated with pre-existing embryonic stem (ES) cells and then developed into independent ES cell lines. It is demonstrated that the remaining seven-cell embryo remains capable of implantation and full development until birth.

Characterization of human embryonic stem cell lines by the International Stem Cell Initiative

Article Abstract:

A systematic and comparative analysis of similarities and differences in the expression of different used standards of hES cell lines established and maintained worldwide is done and 59 human embryonic stem cell lines from 17 laboratories worldwide are characterized by the International Stem Cell Initiative.
