...but that it would take longer for trials involving donor cells.

The embryonic stem cell fans always fail to mention the rejection headaches in transplantation medicine. The patient usually has to take immunosuppresant drugs that leaves them immunocompromised if the transplanted tissue or organs are not perfectly matched with the patient.

However, they have also attracted controversy because some are extracted from embryos.

Which has proven time and time again to be a waste of time. The real promise is in the adult stem cell research, which Obama CUT.

If Embryonic Stem cells are good for anything it is for a research tool to figure out how stem cells work so that Adult Stem cells can be used to cure people using their own cells.

The Left Has brained washed everyone in the media to think that eventually Fetal Stem Cells will be a “one size fits all all-purpose wonder putty” that will justify the harvest of millions of embryos to make this new “All purpose Soylent Goo”.

It is nothing more than an attempt add another rationalization to the practice of Abortion.

Fetal Stem cells should re-main in the laboratory and never be put in any adult due to rejection concerns. Plus a lot of initial stem cell testing can be done first on mice and Zebra fish before need to devise tests on fetal stem cells.
