Stem Cell Research Legislation and Related Legal Issues DeVry University The first embryonic stem cells were first isolated from animals in 1981 by Sir Martin Evans. However it wasn’t until 1998 that James Thompson first isolated human embryonic stem cells. Since then continuing research with stem cells has shown to be sensitive issue because of the perception of morality by humans. For this reason stem cell research legislation has been enacted and has been ever changing throughout time. Therefore

to research ways to make life for people. In 1998‚ scientist learned how to remove stem cells from human embryos and grow the cells in laboratories (Stem Cell Information‚ n.d.). The potential benefits of using human embryonic stem cells to treat disease and injuries is exciting but the controversy on the moral implications of destroying embryos is casting a shadow. This paper will‚ while explaining what stem cell research is‚ outline the moral problem

Embryonic Stem Cell Research is an important process that is already allowing scientists to test new drugs and figure out the cause of birth defects. The process is very delicate because scientists must work with a four to ten day old blastocyst to get the stem cells. They put the stem cells into a petri dish along with proteins and enzymes. The stew of cells‚ enzymes‚ and proteins is what helps regenerate the bad tissues that cause diseases. “Blastocysts can also potentially be created from a donor

Can Stem Cell Therapy Cure Kidney Failure? Stem cells‚ often described as core building blocks of the human body‚ have the unique capacity to self-renew and replicate when activated into almost any cell in the body given the right environment. Stem cells can thus be used to repair or replace diseased or damaged tissues‚ offering enormous potential for curing many diseases. Therefore it is no wonder that stem cell therapy has been a subject of intense research over the years. Today stem cell therapy

against the use of stem cells in medicine? Stem cells – often referred to as “the building blocks of the human body” are like the basic ingredient needed in order to create a human being. This is why large amounts of stem cells can be found in early stage embryos in comparison to the adult human body where there are not as many present. Stem cells are “unspecialized” cells which have the potential to produce different types of specialist cells such as brain‚ muscle‚ or tissue cells. On January the
