Dr. David Prentice reports that, despite all the problems with unethical embryo-destroying research and human cloning, liberals in Congress still want to fund human cloning with your tax dollars.

 

If members of Congress really want to promote treatments and prevent human cloning they should support legislation like the Human Cloning Prohibition Act of 2009 (H.R. 1050) which is a total ban on human cloning and the Patients First Act of 2009 (H.R. 877) which prioritizes ethical forms of stem cell research which have the most potential for actual treatments and cures.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports on an exciting new way to obtain pluripotent stem cells (cells that can transform into any tissue type) from an ethical and abundant source, human blood.  Excerpts:

 

Cellular Dynamics is the first company to say it can make stem cells from something as readily available, and so representative of human diversity, as blood.

 

. . .

 

The stem cells, which scientists refer to as induced pluripotent stem cells, or iPS cells, have all the characteristics of embryonic stem cells [except they don’t involve destroying human embryos]. They can turn into beating heart cells, liver cells or any other tissue cells in the body.

The DC Examiner reports.  Excerpt:

 

Researchers at the Children's Hospital & Research Center in Oakland, California have discovered a new way to harvest stem cells from the placenta.  This technique is a good use of the placenta which at the moment serves no medicinal purpose after birth and thus is discarded. What is more, the study “finds there are far more stem cells in placentas than in umbilical cord blood, and they can be safely extracted for transplantation.”

WCCO reports.  Excerpt:

 

Desperate to help her daughter, Radde surfed the Internet for answers. That's how she found out what a doctor at Northwestern Memorial in Chicago was doing.

 

Dr. Richard Burt is using patients' own stem cells to fight MS.

 

"This therapy's designed to reset your immune system," said Burt.

 

"He's been doing these stem cell transplants and every single person that has been in this program has halted their disease," said Radde.

 

"Eighty-one percent of them are actually healing and regenerating their myelin, and that's the covering on the nerves that every MS patient wants to keep," said Jung.

NewsOn6 reports.  While this potentially life-saving form of ethical stem cell treatment is still rather expensive, couples can still choose to donate their left-over umbilical cord stem cells for the benefit of others.

Patients will receive injections containing millions of their own stem cells, which have been extracted and multiplied up in a laboratory, and can regenerate new tissue to repair damaged regions.

 

More than 1,500 race horses have been treated using the same process and follow-up data suggests a 50 percent reduction in re-injury over a three year period, compared with conventional treatment.
