Tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary field that brings together the principles of the life
sciences and medicine with those of engineering. The increase in its development over the …

Despite the identified therapeutic potential of embryonic stem cells for treating human
disease and injury, a number of roadblocks, scientific and ethical, stand in the way of …

Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are pluripotent cells that have the potential to
differentiate into any tissue in the human body; therefore, they are a valuable resource for …

Background Human embryonic stem cells (hESC) offer a renewable source of a wide range
of cell types for use in research and cell-based therapies to treat disease. Inspection of …

The development and transplantation of autologous cells derived from nuclear transfer
embryonic stem cell (NT‐ESC) lines to treat patients suffering from disease has been termed …

With the isolation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in 1998 came the realization of a
long-sought aspiration for an unlimited source of human tissue. The difficulty of …

A concern recently has been raised that human embryonic stem cell (HESC) lines cultured
with currently available methods may have limited clinical usefulness due to the …

Craig Taylor and colleagues (Dec 10, p 2019) 1 estimate that about 150 human embryonic
stem-cell (hESC) lines would be needed for most of the UK population, and that as few as …

Pluripotent human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), isolated from the inner cell mass of
preimplantation embryonic blastocysts, are able to self-renew and generate every human …

Stem cell research is an important new domain of biomedical research that has the potential
