Jim, that’s interesting. Could you provide a source/link to what “Dr Oz” said about induced pluripotent stem cells? I sincerely hope the debate is done if iPS truly works better.

Dr. Oz to Oprah and Michael J Fox: &quot;The stem cell debate is dead.&quot;

		<description>Above poster is correct.  The company by the name Advanced Cell Technology, can in fact generate human embryonic stem cells without harming the embryo.  This is not IPS, where an adult stem cell is merely induced into an embryonic-like state.  Advanced Cell Technology actually derives real human embryonic like stem cells without destruction or harm to the embryo.  It&#039;s amazing work that has gotten lots of recognition from the science community.  The controversy is in fact over, as long as politicians can come to grips with reality.</description>

		<description>Advanced Cell Technology (ACTC) is a stem cell company that has shown they can create stem cells without harming the embryo (Aug 2006).

They take a single cell from the embryo and can create stem cells.  The procedure is the same performed in IV clinics to check for gene abnormalities.

The debate is over!!!  Look at actc</description>

		<description>Godspeed to all the researchers and scientists. Don&#039;t let the religious zealots hold the progress for humanity back. they will be first in line when the therapies are ready and will forget their indignation.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m pro-life, and I can say pro-lifers do not equate umbilical stem cells with embryonic stem cells. Umbilical stem cells are not pluripotent, as are embryonic.

Pro-lifers DO say induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) stem cells are equivalent to embryonic stem cells. iPS stem cells are made by reprogramming an adult cell into an embryonic-like state. Even Oprah&#039;s famous &quot;Dr Oz&quot; said the stem cell debate is dead and the future of stem cell research lies in iPS cells -- mainly because they, unlike embryonic stem cells, are a genetic match to the patient. He also said embryonic stem cells have a tendency to form tumors.</description>
