Induced pluripotent stem cell

Blewitt text and the reading by Sylwester. Broderick and Blewitt open the chapter by explaining the intricate process of how the brain is formed and how it develops throughout gestation. Once the brain structure itself has formed in the womb, nerve cells called neurons begin to form (Broderick & Blewitt, 2010). The brain sends information to the rest of the body through neurotransmitters that are housed in terminals at the end of axons (Sylwester, 1995). Sylwester gave an interesting analogy…

From stem cell research to cryonics to artificial organs, mankind has gained immense knowledge.Considering today's circumstances with research done, the possibility of Frankenstein's monster being successful is much more…

Embryonic stems cells are cells that can be mutated or change, possibility allowing scientist to discover cures to disease and illness. These cells are the very beginning of human creation, or an embryo, but is not a human. The more to the left someone is on the ideological spectrum, the more likely they are to support the research of stem cells. The goal of the left side of the ideological spectrum is to change to the status quo or designed it policies better. The more to the left you are on…

When HeLa cells started to be sold, do you think Dr.Gey should have stepped in to assure that Henrietta Lacks’ family was compensated in some way? Do you think they should be compensated at all? Dr. Gey should have looked out for the Lacks family and let them know about the cells back in 1951. The lives of Henrietta’s children would have been greatly improved had they had that money. The Lacks family deserves compensation not only because Henrietta’s cells were taken without permission, but…

An author is expanding he or her ethos and logs in a scholar journal and popular article by quotation. The quotation is used in order to expand the knowledge of the paper and established a credible of a topic. According to Linton, Madigan and Johnson scientific paper stay away from using direct quotation for two reason “First the practice of rephrasing minimizes explicit attention to the language in which ideas are expressed and contributes to what George Dillon has called “the rhetoric of…

Embryonic Stem Cell Research The world of medical science has advanced greatly over the past decade. Using various methods, scientists have been able to do research to find cures for diseases and other ailments. One such method involves the use of embryonic stem cells. Along with the success in the field of medical science, there has come a moral backlash of using preborn children for research. Although the benefits of embryonic stem cell research may outweigh the disadvantages, does the ends…

animal testing, the science world and society have always disagreed on many subjects. One of those controversial subjects that science and society still hasn't agreed on is Therapeutic Cloning. Therapeutic cloning is the practice of producing embryonic cells to replace or repair a damaged tissue or organ (Henry, 2010). Therapeutic cloning is a long and complicated process, which has also experienced many failures. The process…

This form of communication can be used to directly resolve a situation between members of staff regarding a sample or inform a member of staff about information they have acquired. For example, if a stained bone marrow smear is not adequate for a cell morphology study, the consultant can directly ask me for a restrain of the same bone marrow aspirate smear or the staining of a completely new smear from the same patient. While vocal dissemination of information can be easy to express, it also can…

Stem cell transplantation, sometimes referred to as bone marrow transplant, is a procedure that replaces unhealthy blood-forming cells with healthy cells. Stem cell transplantation allows doctors to give large doses of chemotherapy or radiation therapy to increase the chance of eliminating blood cancer in the marrow and then restoring normal blood cell production. Researchers continue to improve stem cell transplantation procedures, making them an option for more patients. The basis for stem…

of embryonic stem cells: Growing cells within the laboratory is thought as cell culture. Human embryonic stem cells ar generated by transferring cells from a preimplantation-stage embryo into a plastic laboratory culture dish that contains a nutrient broth called matter. The cells divide and cover the surface of the dish. The inner surface of the culture dish is often coated with mouse embryonic skin cells that are treated in order that they won't divide. This coating layer of cells is named a…
