PUBLIC’S ATTENTION
STEMS CELLS

INTRODUCTION OF STEM CELLS

• Ability to renew themselves through mitotic

cell division.

• Two types of stem cells – embryonic stem cell

- adult stem cell

• Grown in special form with various muscle

and tissues.
STEMS CELLS

STEM CELL RESEARCH

• Regenerating damaged cells.

• Capable of developing into other cells.

• Current medical research on embryonic an adult stem

cell.
• Embryonic:- derived from the inner cell
of blastocyst, an early stage of
embryo.

• Adult stem cell :- obtain from human beings. ( from

children without harming them or
from blood found in the
umbilical cord after delivery)
STEMS CELLS

ADVANTAGES
• Benefits in therapeutic cloning and
regenerative medicine.
• Treatments and cures to the diseases.
• Helps to transplant organs.
• Test drugs.
• Study development stages of embryo.
• Slow down aging process.
STEMS CELLS

• Embryonic :- develop any cell types of the

body.
• Adult :- always accept
- no harm
STEMS CELLS

DISADVANTAGES
• Not suitable for heart disease patients.
• Embryonic :- involves destruction of
blastocysts.
- may reject
• Adult :- pre-specialized
STEMS CELLS

ISSUES ON STEM CELLS RESEARCH

• Issue :- derivation of embryo cause

destruction of embryo.
• Embryonic stem cell research is said as
immoral activity.
• Former president of U.S.A discourage this
research.
