Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), owing to their potential promise to develop into any somatic cell type, have radicalised biotechnology research and application in clinical medicine. The source of hESCs has traditionally been viable cells retrieved from preimplantation stage embryos grown in culture ...
. Stem cell research seeks to further the advancement of the use of stem cells as well as to find an ethical way to study them. In November 1998, researchers found a way to isolate and culture human embryonic stem cells, (Bevington 2005). The ethics of stem cell research has been ...
The Importance of Stem Cell Research Essay Two ways scientist get embryos are from a process called in vitro fertilization, and therapeutic cloning. Vitro fertilization is when a sperm and egg are fertilized in a culture dish then implanted in the female. This technique is used mostly for women...
Embryonic stem cells Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are pluripotent and typically derived from the inner cell mass of the blastocyst-stage embryo. While ESCs are capable of self-renewing indefinitely while retaining their stemness, and generally do not undergo senescence in culture, there are several ...
After infection of cells, selection was started by adding 4 μg/mL of puromycin to E14 ESCs. ESCs were then formed to EBs and underwent differentiation in N2B27 medium. shSTRAP expression was induced by the addition 1 µg/mL of Dox to the culture medium of 11-day-old EBs....
To date, much attention has been paid to MSC-exo on account of the broader clinical application of MSCs, while embryonic stem cell-derived exosomes (ESC-exo) have been snubbed due to their tumorigenicity and the ethical issues surrounding parental cells. Nonetheless, some studies have investigated...
Though these are the key properties of the hESCs, yet they are not a property of the ICM in vivo and must be a characteristic adopted by the cells during their initial outgrowth in the culture. The use of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in cell replacement therapies (CRTs) has been ...
摘要: It is fair to say that embryonic stem (ES) cells have taken their place beside the human genome project as one of the most discussed biomedical issues of the day. It also seems certain that as this millennium unfolds we will see an increase in scientific and ethical...
The use of stem cells in generating cell-based pacemaker therapies for bradyarrhythmia is currently being considered. Due to the propensity of stem cells to form tumors, as well as ethical issues surrounding their use, the seed cells used in cardiac biological pacemakers have limitations. Very sma...
Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is receiving increasing attention in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) research. However, the roles of lncRNA in the differentiation of ESCs into pacemaker-like cells are still unclear. Therefore, the present study aims to explore
