1.   ACT researchers are currently continuing their efforts to clone human cells to create embryos from which primitive stem cells can be harvested.

2.   His report last February that he had made the leap to cloning adult cells was more credible because of his previous work in the field.

3.   If you then clone these cells, all the offspring should have the desired characteristics.

4.   If it was a fetal cell that generated the Dolly clone, the outcome would not be startling because Wilmut had already demonstrated that fetal cells could be cloned.

5.   Last year, proposed legislation for a federal ban was scuttled after scientific research groups argued that it might hamper legitimate uses of cloning human cells.

6.   One is a religious cult that believes in UFOs and aliens whose leaders say they will soon try to clone cells from a recently deceased young child.

7.   Research on cloning them continues, because being able to clone such cells could help treat paralysis and spinal cord injury.

8.   The announcement that South Korean scientists have cloned a cell from a woman to make an embryo that is genetically identical to her has yet to be verified.

9.   The embryo cells could be cloned by adding their DNA to the DNA of eggs that would otherwise be discarded, because they failed to fertilize, for example.

10.   The idea would be to grow pig cells in the laboratory, add human genes and then clone those cells that best expressed the genes.
