MU scientists successfully convert pig tissue into stem cells
Published July 4, 2009, 10:12 pm, Columbia Missourian
COLUMBIA — Stem cell research has been considered by some to be the next area in science that could potentially produce life-saving cures, but controversy over the issue has limited research opportunities. An MU researcher thinks he has found a way to avoid the controversy altogether. R. Michael Roberts, curator's professor of molecular biochemistry in MU's animal sciences division and a member ...
Embryonic stem cells and reprogrammed skin cells are clearly distinguishable
Published July 4, 2009, 9:19 am, New Kerala
Washington, July 4: Researchers at the University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA) have shown that there are certain molecular differences between embryonic stem cells and skin cells skin cells reprogrammed into embryonic-like cells.
UCLA Scientists Find Molecular Differences Between Embryonic Stem Cells And Reprogrammed Skin Cells
Published July 4, 2009, 3:09 am, Medical News Today
UCLA researchers have found that embryonic stem cells and skin cells reprogrammed into embryonic-like cells have inherent molecular differences, demonstrating for the first time that the two cell types are clearly distinguishable from one another.
Call For Public Debates On Future Uses Of Stem Cells Lead By Bioethicists

Salamanders, Regenerative Wonders, Heal Like Mammals, People
Published July 3, 2009, 4:07 am, Medical News Today
The salamander is a superhero of regeneration, able to replace lost limbs, damaged lungs, sliced spinal cord -- even bits of lopped-off brain. But it turns out that remarkable ability isn't so mysterious after all -- suggesting that researchers could learn how to replicate it in people.
Regenerated legs no trick for salamanders - it's down to memory
