Cells From Liposuction Function As Stem Cells?
texchanchan writes "Plastic surgeon Peter Fodor MD filtered stem cells out of fat sucked from people's oversized body parts, then cultured them into 'bone, cartilage, skeletal muscle and nerve cells.' At the rate of 10,000 stem cells per cm3 that's a lot of stem cells. Combine that with this and you might be on the road to regeneration. And, you can have your stem cells banked for later disasters after your liposuction."
That just gives "suck my ass" a whole new meaning.

This is exactly why the president put the breaks on killing human embryos - to keep the sciences looking for a better way. Idiot.
If it were done when 'tis done, then t'were well it were done quickly... MacBeth
Make some sense or go home, moron.

Eating ice cream and chocolate now will increase your life span. The only other thing you need is an artificial heart.
Start running to the fridge and hope that science will save your fat ass.
Why not say what this really means?
It was important to the German government of the early '40s to collect data on radiation by exposing people thereto. Doesn't make it right to do so.
And no, this doesn't Godwin because it's a very apt comparison.
Morons there are many different types of stem cells. Embryonic stem cells are better for several reason, then their respective adult counterparts no matter where you find them, in fat, shit, etc... Right wing religous conservatives simply can't grasp this. Embryos (at the stage they are harvested) have no brain functions, they dont even look like people at all. Using them for research IS perfectly ethical. Millions of real people die every day from diseases which we can find cures to, they are worth more too me than a bunch of cells in a dish, that you would otherwise flush down the toilet.
first u go on talking about "cloacking" all the time and even spell it wrong and now ur telling me ur making bones out of fat? uuuh hum. don't u ppl know alchemy and magic are long dead?!
;P)
--tzan
p.s.for all the ppl u who didn't realize that's a joke: go hang urself wiht ur shoelaces!
p.p.s. i will not be responisible if anybody does wht i just mentioned (nowadays u gotta b carfull
Advocates of abortion have been quick to use "science" as justification for their actions. It's an outrageous abuse of science, akin to advocating murder because the fat cells can now be used for research into stem cells. What's wrong with using rat embrios? Why butcher people for "research"? No, the abortionists don't care about anyone but themselves. Your specific issue will be useful to craven people, and it won't be true tomorrow when people figure out how to make this fat dance a little better.
Yesterday, I'm sure you would have laughed at the very idea of using liposcutioned fat cells for stem cell research. Heck, I'm still laughing, but mostly becuase it shows the abortionist argument that dead babies are the only source of stem cells as the complete bullshit.
DMCA, Hollings, Palladium. What might have sounded like paranoia is now common sense.
The use of liposcuctioned fat cells to make stem cells just goes to show how little we know and how much we are at the begining of this kind of study. Who knows what people will be able to make cells do next. The more we learn the more we can do.
I laughed out loud when I read it, but it's wonderful. Fat cells really are the undiferentiated cell mass the abortionists would like you to think an embrio is. Fat cells will never grow into a person and killing them or forcing them to grow into nerve cells is perfectly ethical.
