		<description>Hmm -- the &lt;a href=&quot;http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7795586.stm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;BBC article&lt;/a&gt; published at the time stated that the cells were taken from an aborted human fetus. So I guess that means our phrasing was a little off --  the researchers didn&#039;t derive the cell line from embryonic stem cells, but rather from neuronal stem cells taken from the fetus.</description>

		<description>Hey,
This blog is incorrect Embryonic Stem Cells are still in the pre-clinical research phase and are only able to be used in the UK for IVF research. The stem cells you are refering to are NEURONAL stem cells, which are not derived from embryos. Neuronal stem cells are multipotent, they can only develop into neurons; unlike embryonic stem cells, which are pluripotent and can develop into all tissue types.</description>

		<description>Has anyone considered the possibility of a woman who has had any abdominal surgeries, etc. that one of her healthy ovaries could disappear? This could thrust her into a very early menopausal changes and many other LIFE TIME health declines and EXPLOITATIONS.  Missing ovaries would not be brought to the victim&#039;s attention.  Where will the eggs come from, if they are not using the stored eggs of donors who want to become prenant and thus those extra eggs will be disposed of.  According to my information, knowledge and beliefs and a radio broadcast, only eggs which will be disposed of will be used for Embryonic Stem Cell research.  WOMEN NEED TO BEWARE of &quot;DO YOU KNOW WHAT HAD BEEN TAKEN OUT OF YOUR BODY WITHOUT YOUR KNOWLEDGE?&quot; (BTT, UP TO 2009)</description>

		<description>Hi, Doctors,
I am 61 years old man. I live in Malden-MA. In july/ 1996 I had my heard attack, then one week after I had the second one and tehe two ocasions They did the angioplasty, By 1999 I had the third heart attack
The Doctors did the catherization + anglioplasty and put a stent in, one month later, I had another heart attack because the stent broke, them they a new angioplaty put a small stent inside the broke one.But something happened that I coudn&#039;t walk, my whole body was so weak and I coudn&#039;t move my legs.
Then after 6 months the Doctors put in me a peacema- ker, but nothing happened for the better. Then I went to Brasil and I had the bypass, after that I was able to walk again. But since than I feel so weak I feel a lot fatigue, dizziness, musclepain all over my body, include inside my heart, shortbreath and I am not be able to do anything.
I hope you can do something for me, because I am this way for too long and nobody can help me.
               Thanks so much for your attention

		<description>A bit about my discovery of CELL DIVISION! ...

The cell has a nucleus with chips (nuclei) of itself in orbit.
 
Horizontally to the nuclei orbit, chips are flung out to produce a pole on each side of the orbit. 

The cell and all its chips contain the complete make up of the species.

The nuclei orbit speed and maturity will determine the strength needed for the poles to pull the cell apart. The nuclei at a pole with all the information of the nucleus of the cell centers to the mass producing a new nucleus with its orbiting chips.

The cell Earth with one orbit, rock with two some minerals and all life with three and a new species (BRAIN) with four.

Cells are separated by their aura and will maintain to be in a packed state. In the case of giving three gallons of blood to the Red Cross the blood cells that are left are no longer packed and cell division takes place replacing what was taken (thank goodness)!

A child that does not have fast orbiting cell nuclei promoting growth will suffer from the disease ?? and will at a young age, age to old age.

		<description>Hair follicles contain stem cells.
 
The same would be found in cuticles of the fingernail – The thing here is that to grow new STUPH, cell division must take place. Fast orbiting nucleus nuclei such as fetus, hair follicle or fingernail cuticle (instigating cell division) would help in cell division of cells in a packed state.

Because of inflammation again causing cell packing, the success rate of this will be low.

No matter what is used, AURA of adjoining cells will influence and change (clone) the new substance (as long as it’s same species).

The big problem is controlling inflammation. 
All that AURA of an amputee that is just going to waste, is now, with the help of New Technology and a open minded surgeon, capable of growing a new limb or whatever and stem cells of any kind are not required!

		<description>Science has been experimenting with cloning and they have not realized that there is a cell orbiting nuclei speed difference between young and old cells. The longevity of Dolly the Sheep is minimal and will find the same of cells produced by ‘T’ cells of maturity. Science, however, has realized that Stem Cells from our babies work better and won’t realize why until they read my paper.

		<description>Yes! Re-brand them! ES cells! ES cell research. Not big scary &quot;Dead Baby Stem Cells&quot; moniker we currently use. 

That&#039;s so brilliant. I will spread the word.</description>
