is CoQ10? CoQ10 is an essential nutrient that resides in the mitochondria, which are the tiny “energy factories” inside each of your cells. It’s the catalyst that sparks the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is…
These advancements could help and save many people. For example the author of the article Scientists Clone Human Embryos To Make Stem Cells said that “Ever since human embryonic stem cells were discovered, scientists have had high hopes for them because the cells can morph into any kind of cell in the body. That ability means, in theory,…
about what happened, but don’t let it get you down! I heard that you’re apprehensive about the stem cell therapy your doctor was pitching to you, and well, it sounds like it has real promise. There was even a paralyzed man who regained his ability to walk after a knife attack separated his spinal column. He owes his recovery to a pioneering procedure that implanted stem cells from his nose and nerve cells from his ankles to his spinal cord. I really believe that jumping on this clinical trial…
In the story Becoming Dr. Q we are taken through vivid memories of triumph and despair. There is much to be seen in these stories shared by Dr. Q, most speak on cases that boggle the world of medicine as a whole while others are common cases that are yet to be uncured by science. It is in those respects that I feel a recurring theme of this life story is that of the personal effect that every patient has had on Dr. Q. He often speaks about the impact that these lives have had on him both in a…
1635-1702 a physicist named Robert Hooke was the first inventor of the microscope. He first observed thin slices of cork, which he described to be as small rooms, the ones that were similar to the small rooms in monasteries. He only saw the cell wall because cork cells are not alive. After the discovery of the microscope in 1635-1702 by Robert Hooke, another microscope inventor named Anton Leuwenhoek, he discovered the microscope that can magnify things in 1675, and he also discovered the world…
somatic (adult) stem cells research be conducted in New Zealand. Biological ideas - Describing and explaining the biological ideas related to the question or purpose by making multiple links between relevant biological ideas. Scientists and doctors are constantly researching news ways to make modern medicine more personalized for every individual. One way they are is doing this is by using Stem Cells. Stem…
In a Vanderbilt article “Funding the Future: Embryonic Stem Cell Research” it says “the opportunity to clearly define regulations for ethical research”(Stan/2017/Vanderbilt/“Funding the Future: Embryonic Stem Cell Research”). This quote proves that the research can lead to health benefits. In an NPR article “Stem Cell Research: An NPR Special Report” it says “private sector research may lead to ethical abuses”(Arti K. RaI/2017/NPR/“Stem Cell Research: An NPR Special Report”). Shows that publicly…
People have always believed that Embryonic Stem Cell Research has the potential to lead to great medical discoveries that may allow the recreation of medicine. Through embryonic stem cell research, stem cells can be created and modified so that these cells can transform into specific cells that may be used to treat incurable diseases, or create therapies for incurable diseases, such as diabetes. However, there are also several ethical issues that are looked down upon by various civilian and…
not producing healthy blood cells. She is on the brink of death and doesn’t have much time left. Her body is creating excess white blood cells and limited healthy cell causing sever bruising, fever and high risk of infection. What can be done to save her? One of the newest and most effective way to prolong the life a leukemia patient is too extract adult stem cells from bone marrow to generate new blood cells coded to her DNA (Katz and Walker 1). Without new blood cells she would die. The…
Stem cell research is a global topic within the science community. There have been numerous discoveries in this field worldwide, and these findings have many scientists jubilant about the possible future implications. Most of the research is associated with the topic of cloning. In the scientific community, the term cloning is broken down into two categories: Therapeutic and Reproductive. In Therapeutic Cloning, the nucleus of an unfertilized egg is removed and replaced via injection with the…
