1.   Proliferation and survival in culture of fetal endodermal cells, which have the pluripotent characteristics of stem cells, however, are enhanced by mesenchymal support.

2.   Trophoblast is physiologically shed into the maternal circulation, whereas, in early pregnancy, NFEs are the most common type of nucleated fetal cell in the fetal circulation.

3.   And, unlike implants of human or animal fetal cells, the Spheramine cells are not attacked by immune cells in the brain.

4.   As soon as they tried to grow fetal cells in the lab, the cells would differentiate.

5.   A Japanese researcher weakened the virus by growing it in both human fetal cells and animal cells.

6.   By virtually all scientific accounts, the potential benefits from fetal cell transplants are enormous.

7.   Differentiated fetal cells, and adult cells, in contrast, are easy to grow and genetically modify in petri dishes.

8.   Did clinical improvements have anything at all to do with growth of the fetal cells?

9.   Eyestone said he would not have tried to clone even a fetal cell because such studies had been doomed to failure in the past.

10.   Fetal cells are more amenable to cloning than adult cows.
