DRAFT OUTLINE OF PAPER 2/23/99 An Incremental Approach to NBAC Deliberation on Human Pluripotential Stem Cells (PSC) Research
نویسنده
چکیده
[Note: Ethical concern about "uses" will heighten at the threshold of clinical trials of cell-directed therapies in humans. The scientific foundations for PSC based therapy have yet to be laid. Mouse research is the main source of clinically interesting information. Replicable therapeutic research in higher animals is needed. Leading scientists (Thomson, Hogan) predict a 5 year period to reach this threshold.]

Comparative Legal Approaches on Patenting Human Stem Cells with Emphasis on European & American Jurisprudence
Stem cells are one of the most challenging areas of patent law as one of the important medical resources for the treatment of various diseases. The scope of this challenge relying on the legal approaches of countries depends on how to satisfy substantive requirments and moral considerations, especially in the field of embryonic stem cells. Accordingly, although such cells could be considered pa...
متن کاملEthical Issues in Stem Cell Transplantation
There is great interest worldwide in discovering and developing a permanent source of tissues which would be capable of generating any cell type and which would avoid the problem of transplant rejection. Stem cells are cells that can specialize into the many different cells found in the human body. The ethical objections concerning stem cells have focused primarily on their source. Human embry...
متن کاملStem cell-based approach for the treatment of Parkinson\'s disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative brain disorder which is around 1.5 times more common in men than in women. Currently, drug medications, surgery, and lifestyle changes are common approaches to PD, while all of them focused on reducing the symptoms. Therefore, regenerative medicine based on stem cell (SC) therapies has raised a promising hope. Various types ...
متن کاملIncremental Predictive Command of Velocity to Be Gained Guidance Method
In this paper, a new incremental predictive guidance method based on implicit form of velocity to be gained algorithm is proposed. In this approach, the generalized incremental predictive control (GIPC) approach is applied to the linearized model for compensating the guidance error. Instead of using the present state in popular model based predictive controller (MPC), in the new method both pre...
متن کاملIn vitro assessment of alendronate toxic and apoptotic effects on human dental pulp stem cells
Objective(s): Osteonecrosis of the jaw, as an exposed necrotic bone in the oral cavity, is one of the adverse effects of bisphosphonates, which have an affinity for bone minerals. This study investigates the cytotoxic effects of alendronate (ALN) as a nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate, on human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). Materials and Methods: The mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), obtained ...
