Stem cells from 'dead' embryo

NEW YORK -- Scientists say they have created a stem cell line from a human embryo that had stopped developing naturally, and so was considered dead. Using such embryos might ease ethical concerns about creating such cells, they suggested.

Mouse embryos created through a "virgin birth" process called parthenogenesis show that egg cells can be a source of valued embryonic stem cells, researchers said on Thursday.

Scientists have developed an easy-to-use technique for reprogramming a skin cell of a mouse back to the embryonic state, which could have implications for regenerative medicine in humans.
