ANOTHER Adult Stem-Cell Break Through!

J.J. Jackson* | November 17, 2006

People trying to push Embryonic Stem-cells as a justification for murdering human babies are struggling to find a use for their franken-science. But adult stem cells continue to show progress that they would rather you not hear about.

Well, I’m telling you anyway:

Stem Cells Help Dogs With Muscular Dystrophy

Dogs with Duchenne muscular dystrophy experienced a return of muscle strength after receiving stem cell therapy, say scientists from Italy and France.

…

The scientists gathered mesoangioblasts - stem cells which turn into muscle cells. Mesoangioblasts were collected from healthy dogs and dogs with MD. The mesoangioblasts from the MD dogs had their genes modified so that the mutated gene was corrected. They then injected mesoangioblasts into the MD dogs once a month for five months.

They found that the MD dogs which received mesoangioblasts from healthy dogs benefited more than those which received ‘corrected’ mesoangioblasts.

Of six dogs with MD, four began to experienced a return of dystrophin. The same four dogs also regained muscle strength.

…

When humans with MD are eventually treated with stem cell therapy for MD, it would be ideal to use the patient’s own corrected stem cells. However, the scientists found that the dogs which received stem cells from healthy dogs did much better than those which received their own corrected cells. It is hoped that further research will overcome this difference. If a patient can receive his own cells he will not need to take immunosuppressant drugs (due to rejection).

Notice that no unborn puppies had to be aborted so that other dogs may have a potential cure?

Can we STOP lying about stem cells now? I know that without the lie that Embryonic Stem Cells are the “miracle” cure for diseases it would put probably the final nail in the coffin of pro-abortionists, but some of us care more about facts than fictions for our own political power.
