Therapeutic Cloning: A Case Study

I am writing to address the problem I have with cloning. Therapeutic and Reproductive cloning is a waste of money and time. Why would you pay fifty thousand american dollars to clone something or someone that won’t be an exact copy? Every person or animal in the world is made for a reason, so why make a clone if you’re one of a kind.

I’m Michael Martinez I am writing this letter to talk about cloning and which on you should vote for. There are two different types of cloning there is Reproductive cloning and Therapeutic cloning. Reproductive cloning is creating organisms that are the same as the old one. It clones plants, animals, and humans. Human cloning is more in Therapeutic cloning it harvest embryonic stem cells for medical treatments. This could be used to to clone human tissue for surgical transplants.

The idea of finding a way to cure people of diseases with their own cells is one that scientists, physicians, and those who are afflicted by such diseases find very enticing. Therapeutic cloning is a process that scientists believe has the potential to achieve such goals in the future. While therapeutic cloning brings with it a variety of potential benefits and innovations, it also carries with it a polarizing ethical conflict that poses a strong impediment to furthering such research and development. By realizing therapeutic cloning for its great potential benefits and world changing implications and disregarding any ethical considerations that may deter such advancement, the proper focus and open-mindedness necessary to achieve success in the field would be achieved. Therapeutic cloning, like all medical endeavors, includes a multitude of challenges and flaws, but no very important medical achievements come about without extensive research and continual attempts at success.

New areas of science often raise questions about safety. Reflecting back on the past medical technologies invented, people have always opposed it but often benefit from it later on in life. The use of in-vitro fertilization, for instance, was once a controversial issue. Some people worried that society could discriminate against humans produced as a result of IVF and humans could spread diseases. Furthermore, its usefulness cannot be predicted because it is just a research tool, and so on. Today, those worries and concerns have not manifested, but instead have brought joy and happiness to families. The people born through IVF process are as happy and equal as any other average child. It is

I’m currently a junior in high school. I’m writing this letter to you to share my concern about cloning.

Stem Cells On average 20 people die each day waiting for a transplant. Which is a problem that our people deal with on a daily basis. This fact has a solution in which we can help and provide people with new organs. The solution are stem cells that are artificially created in order to replace damaged organs.

For many years there has been a large controversy over the use of cloning for therapeutic and reproductive purposes. The argument against therapeutic cloning is that creating an exact replica of one's self all for the use of harvesting its parts is considered killing another human being. However, some people are for this use so that they can survive as long as they can, and use the clones materials as a way to cure disease or heal injuries. On the other hand, reductive cloning also has two sides, for and against. People who believe that reproductive cloning is okay, want to create another version of themselves just to either have themselves as a baby or replace a loved one. But, people who are against reproductive cloning believe that it is a selfish or unreasonable act to have one birth a

Stem cell research and use is a good idea because stem cells can cure diseases, stem cells treat a lot of injuries, stem cells make people with diabetes live longer, the cells get people free from infectious agents.

Why give the money to therapeutic cloning research? Therapeutic cloning involves creating a cloned embryonic stem cells with the same DNA as the donor cells. It will help produce genetically identical copies of a biological entity.Which the stem cells for experiments aimed at creating tissues to replace injured or diseased tissues. The money should go to fund therapeutic cloning only because it will replace damaged organs, replace lost limbs and is safer than reproductive cloning.

While there are currently no approved treatments using embryonic stem cells, they remain a theoretically potential source for regenerative and tissue replacement after injury and disease. The variety of cells they can develop into makes limitless possibilities for medicine. Turning ES cells into usable cells while avoiding transplant rejection are some problems scientists will have to work through. But like for organ transplants and anti-rejection drugs it is possible these obstacles could be overcome.

There are three primary types of cloning, recombinant DNA technology or DNA cloning, reproductive cloning, and therapeutic cloning. Therapeutic cloning, also referred to as somatic cell nuclear transfer(SCNT), was first accomplished in November 2001 by the Advanced Cell Technology. Therapeutic cloning is similar to reproductive cloning, but the purpose is to harvest embryonic stem cells from a developing embryo. This Cloning was designed as treatment for diseases. In therapeutic cloning, the core of a cell, commonly a skin cell, is embedded into a prepared egg whose nucleus has been extracted. The nucleated egg starts to break down continuously to form a blastocyst. Scientists then extract stem cells from the blastocyst and use them to grow cells that are a

There are two sides to the topic of cloning. One side believes it is unethical and should be banned. The other side believes the benefits and possibilities outweigh the problems. The two most controversial types of artificial cloning are reproductive cloning, and therapeutic cloning. Reproductive cloning is the use of cells from a host to create a whole new genetic copy. Therapeutic cloning is the use of embryonic stem cells to create tissue to replace damaged tissue and whole organs.

I would like to introduce myself as Falantina Rashoo and would like to discuss the bill about the reproductive and therapeutic cloning and the process of each and weather people should be against it or with it and why you should not vote for the bill. There has been a lot of people that are alright with reproductive and therapeutic cloning. Some people do not understand that sometimes things can go wrong while cloning. people might be alright with cloning animals that are gone forever but cloning pets that just died and just because some people want another copy of their loved pet that they lost does not mean that we should play with the nature and control it by making another copy of the pet.

Cloning, can be beneficial to human society. Theres many types of cloning but, the one that benefits society today is known as therapeutic cloning. Therapeutic cloning, is the removal of a nucleus, which contains the genetic material, from virtually any cell of the body usually from the skin and its transferred by injection it into an unfertilized egg from which the nucleus has also been removed. Creating an identical DNA. By, having a cloned DNA it can help understand genetic diseases. The cells created it can later be used transplanted into the patients to treat a diseases from which the patient suffers.

Throughout the years, many diseases have been incurable due to our lack of ability to replace limbs, organs, or any form of human tissue. Stem cell research can solve this. Stem cells have the ability to create and turn into any type of specialized cell. So because of this, we have the potential to create new limbs for those who lost them in accidents (ears, eyes, noses, fingers, etc.), replace hard to reproduce tissues like bone marrow, spinal tissue, and brain tissue, and recreate organs that are hard to get when donated such as hearts. With all of this potential to cure and save so many people, this research is vital and for this reason is right to do.
