All stem cell advances are welcome, but the door should be left open for embryonic stem cell research, advocates said Thursday.所有幹細胞的進展表示歡迎,但大門,應留待開放,為胚胎幹細胞研究,主張說,週四。

Opponents of research on embryonic stem cells say there is more potential for finding cures in research on stem cells that do not require the destruction of human embryos, which they object to on ethical grounds.反對胚胎幹細胞研究說,有更多的潛力,尋找醫治,在幹細胞研究不需要破壞人類胚胎,它們反對對道德的理由。 To bolster their argument, they point to recent research advances, including a recent study that found potential to treat disease in stem cells taken from amniotic fluid.為了加強其論點,他們指出,最近的研究進展,包括最近進行的一項研究發現,潛在的治療疾病的幹細胞取自羊水。

But those recent research advances using non-embryonic stem cells from bone marrow and amniotic fluid do not eliminate the need for continued investigation into the potential of embryonic stem cells, says, Rep. Mike Castle, R-Del., at the left-leaning Center for American Progress.但那些最近的研究進展使用非胚胎幹細胞來自骨髓和羊水不消除需要繼續調查的潛在胚胎幹細胞,說, Rep 。麥克的城堡,的R -刪除,在左傾美國進步中心。

Researchers — even many who have made advances using non-embryonic cells — say limiting their use will limit scientific progress.研究人員-甚至許多人取得了進展,使用非胚胎細胞-說,限制其使用,會限制的科學進步。

‘Adult stem cells are really useful to treat immunological disease,’ said Steven Teitelbaum, a professor of pathology at the Washington University School of Medicine. '成人幹細胞是真的有用的治療免疫疾病, '說,潘國泰特鮑姆,病理學教授在華盛頓大學醫學院的。

But there is only so much adult stem cells can do, he said.但是只有這麼多的成人幹細胞可以做,他說。 ‘This is not a contest between different kinds of stem cells — this is a contest between society and disease. '這不是一個競賽之間的不同種幹細胞-這是一個競賽之間的社會和疾病。

‘Why not let 100 flowers bloom and use every tool we have to help patients with these devastating diseases?’ '為什麼不能讓百開花,並利用每一個工具,我們要幫助病人與這些破壞性疾病呢?

Federal support of embryonic stem cell research would actually make the process more ethical because government standards could be imposed, said Jeanne Loring, principal investigator at the Burnham Institute.聯邦政府的支持胚胎幹細胞研究,實際上使這一進程更多的道德標準,因為政府可以施加說,珍妮loring ,首席調查員在伯納姆研究所。 Loring conducts research with embryonic stem cells. loring進行研究與胚胎幹細胞。
