Cloned stem cells prove identical to fertilized stem cells
Scientists generally agree that all cloned animals are biologically flawed. But they don't agree about what that means for stem cells derived from cloned embryos, the basis for therapeutic cloning.   view more (2006-01-17)

UCLA researchers reprogram normal tissue cells into embryonic stem cells
Researchers at the Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Medicine at UCLA were able to take normal tissue cells and reprogram them into cells with the same unlimited properties as embryonic stem cells, the cells that are able to give rise to every cell type found in the body.   view more (2007-06-07)

Mice cloned from skin cells
Healthy and viable mice that survive until adulthood have, for the first time, been cloned from adult stem cells. Scientists from Rockefeller University, including Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator Elaine Fuchs, used cells called keratinocyte stem cells, which represent a new model... view more (2007-02-13)

Antibody-based therapies effective at controlling malaria
Passive immunization through the development of fully human antibodies specific to Plasmodium falciparum may be effective at controlling the disease, report researchers led by Dr. Richard S. McIntosh from the University of Nottingham in a paper published this week in the open-access journal PLoS... view more (2007-05-18)

New study shows that therapeutic gene expression can be sustainable for 1 year
Researchers at the Board of Governors Gene Therapeutics Research Institute at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center have shown for the first time that it is possible to sustain therapeutic gene expression in the central nervous system for up to a year, even in the presence of an anti-viral immune response... view more (2007-10-26)

Chemistry & Industry Press Release for Issue 23 - Cover Date: Monday 3 December 2001
NEWS Human Cloning -Don't Believe the Hype (p751) Claims to have cloned a human embryo are overstated, according to experts. A six-celled embryo is not a clone, says Roslin expert Harry Griffin. Is Animal Cloning Safe? (p751) The claim by American Biotech Company that the production of 24... view more (2001-11-28)

Novel antigen-cloning technique may boost efforts to develop a melanoma vaccine
In recent years, researchers have worked to develop a number of vaccines to help the immune system fight tumors. Cancer vaccines are not intended to prevent cancer; rather, they are used to boost immune responses to preexisting tumors.   view more (2007-04-16)

In a technical tour de force, Salk scientists take a global view of the epigenome
A collaboration between researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies and the University of California at Los Angeles captured the genome-wide DNA methylation pattern of the plant Arabidopsis thaliana-the "laboratory rat" of the plant world-in one big sweep.   view more (2006-09-01)

Cloned mice created from fully differentiated cells, a milestone in cloning research
