2009-06-05 Making Pig Stem Cells Raises the Possibility of Animal Organ Donors 80beats Discover MagazineNormally Im a cheerleader for this kinda thing - but we can keep a lung alive in a jar for 12 hours, and fake a pig heart being alive for surgery purposes - within ten years were more likely to have in-vitro organ cloning than in-porcine organ cloning, at least from a safety standpoint. At least, with that method you only have to worry about random cancer from the viral vectors used to induce pluripotentcy in human stem cells, and not the viral vectors + whatever happened to be living inside your host pork at the time of organ cloning. blogs.discovermagazine.com

Ensign will likely be all smiles while making a pair of campaign-style stops during his heartland jaunt.

For Big Brother and social engineering fearful types, this could be used to mark selected humans of whatever estranged class or criminal by infecting with the transgenic gene so they could be easily scanned and identified.

On the pure science tip, Lister observes that the DNA recovered from mammoth specimens is "highly degraded, broken up into little pieces. Its no longer in living cells. Its no longer even in chromosomes. Its just a whole lot of bits and pieces. We can sequence them we can find out about the mammoth. But thats an enormously simpler and smaller exercise than cloning the animal. " No problem, says Larry Agenbroad, director of the Mammoth Site of Hot Springs, South Dakota, who tells AF, "I think in another decade or so, the feasibility will be there. I dont see any reason not to. Ive already volunteered to be the godfather of the first one thats cloned. Ive had people say, Youre going to introduce some wild disease. Well, lots of carcasses defrost in the natural cycle of things, and I dont recall any pandemonium from any newly released bacteria or virus from naturally thawed animals. " www.esquire.com
