Researchers Turn Cloned Human Embryo into Working Stem Cell Line

 Scientists are trying to take an unfertilized egg, swap out the single set of chromosomes in the egg for the two sets of chromosomes in a patient’s adult cells, and initiate a process wherein the egg develops by  following the instructions of the new DNA.  Usually, this process fails, Cultures stop developing after a division or two. So the NY Stem Cell team went looking for the cause of failure. Through a series of experiments they found that whatever the problem is, it’s introduced during the removal of the egg’s native single chromosome DNA. So they did what most of us do they skipped a step to find the cause of the problem.  The new way  worked, and they produced an embryo that developed up to what’s known as the blastocyst stage, where the culture contains nearly 100 cells. At this point, stem cells can be extracted from the embryo. This has made a huge breakthrough when it comes to stem cells. In the future we might get a full grown baby but untill then this scientists have alot to find.
