Anileve Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 (edited) The importance of male roles is slowly deteriorating, considering the contents of the following article. I hope you guys don’t sink into depression, from realizing that you are smoothly fading into obscurity. Just kidding. The capabilities of science are absolutely outstanding and phenomenal! And who says that soon enough we won’t be able to produce clones and repopulate another planet with them? Ok, I might be going to far here, but dammit I am just blown away by this! ========================================= Scientists have made a female mouse egg grow into an adult without fertilising it with sperm, the journal Nature says. The egg had two sets of chromosomes belonging to the mother, rather than one from the mother and one from the father as in a fertilised embryo. The phenomenon, called parthenogenesis, never occurs naturally in mammals. Some researchers say the procedures may be applied to stem cell research, but the scientists who carried out the work say it would not yet work in humans. ......... The team injected the genetic material from an immature mouse egg into a mature egg with its own set of chromosomes. They then "activated" the combined egg, prompting it to start growing as an embryo. ............... Dr Bartolomei suggested that making embryos without the need for fertilisation might allow researchers to circumvent political and ethical obstacles to using stem cells. Dr Kono also agrees that the technique could be suitable for creating stem cell lines. Full Article Edited April 21, 2004 by anileve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azat Posted April 22, 2004 Report Share Posted April 22, 2004 I sure hope they can't reproduce this in human species as the following line would have to be removed from my 2005 Tax forms(income section) if they do.
