Adult stem cell research has produced countless cures and hopeful treatment for many diseases. A new finding for use of adult stem cells has been reported by scientists at University College-London.They have engineered adult stem cells to seek out and destroy cancer cells in mice. These adult stem cells were found in bone marrow and connective tissue. In the lab, these cells were able to find and kill cells from lung, squamous, breast and cervical cancer. They also injected the cells into mice with breast tumors and showed they were safely able to kill the tumors, but leave healthy tissue intact.
Wouldn't you like your tax dollars to be used for this research rather than killing an embryo for useless research?
