Stem Cells—Therapeutic Cloning Techniques Advance, Business and Industry Trends Analysis

There are two distinct types of embryonic cloning: “reproductive” cloning and “therapeutic” cloning.  While they have similar beginnings, the desired end results are vastly different.
The clearest path to “therapeutic” cloning may lie in “autologous transplantation.”  In this method, a tiny amount of a patient’s muscle or other tissue is harvested.  This sample’s genetic material is then de-differentiated; that is, reduced to a simple, unprogrammed state.  The patient’s DNA sample is then inserted into an egg to grow a blastocyst.  The blastocyst is manipulated so that its stem cells differentiate into the desired type of tissue, such as heart tissue.  That newly grown tissue would then be transplanted to the patient’s body.  Many obstacles must be overcome before such a transplant can become commonplace, but there is potential to completely revolutionize healing through such regenerative, stem cell-based processes.
