I heard this earlier, I believe them thar stem cells were from a "non - embryonic" line. I could be greatly mistaken, making dinner and in and out of the room.. somebody please.. prove me right for once!
Just jokin.. I thought this was true but then FOX did that whole stupid Iranian thing With the Schlepp.. curled eyelashes at 7PM..

An infusion of stem cells scraped from blood vessels...

Sounds like a NON-embryonic source to me. An embryo (at the stage where stem cells are harvested) would not have blood vessels.

Must be adult or non-embryonic stem cells.

1-Anything I've heard is that ALL advances in SC have been along adult stem cell lines. There have been 70 or 72 major advances or breathroughs with adult stem cells.

2-There have been 0 (ZERO) advances along embryonic lines. In fact emryonic stem cells are believed tohave caused cancer and tumors and other problems.

Adult stem cells 70 Embryonic stem cells ZERO

3-If embryonic stem cells had been used, EMBRYONIC stem cells would have been stipulated and mentioned with flashing lights and fanfare. But since they're more than likely ADULT stem cells, they just use the generic "stem cell" , thus blurring the line between the two, in an attempt to confuse the unlearned and unwashed.

You are correct - they are NON-embryonic stem cells. I had a very long discussion with a co-worker today regarding this. We work in cancer research and are just appalled that these types of advances aren't clearly identified as non-embryonic. There are so many like this and next to nil on the embryonic side. Yet the MSM still likes to make it seem there is only one type of stem cell by burying it deep in the article. *sigh* It's just one of those pet peeves we have....

"stem cells were from a "non - embryonic" line."

This is a great trick of the leftist MSM. All stem cell
research is lumped into embryonic stem cells.
If your against "embryonic" stem cell use, you must also be against ALL stem cells.

They do the same with global warming. If you don't believe that man is the reason for warming, then you don't believe there is ANY warming.

It makes my blood boil !
