WHAT ARE STEM WHAT ARE STEM CELLS?CELLS?
nonspecialized cells which have the
potential to create other
types of specific cells
Embryonic stem cells are master cells that
can morph into any
cell of the body.
Scientists believe that embryonic stem cells can provide tissues
to replace defective organ
tissues.
There could be new treatments for
diseases that are currently incurable.
Including diabetes, heart disease,
Parkinson's disease and maybe even Alzheimer's,
or new nerve connections to
restore movement after spinal injury.
Economy?All of the stem cell research
companies have shown a large loss of money between 2000-2004 due to the veto of the Stem Cell research bill
by President Bush. Job loss also
occurred.
