Summary:
WiCell Research Institute and a California company said Tuesday they have a preliminary agreement to jointly distribute a range of new embryonic stem cell lines that may be created without destroying human embryos. The cell lines would be produced using a techniquethat was developed by the company, Advanced Cell Technology of Alameda, Calif. The technique was described in a recent article in the journal Nature. The lines would be distributed provided that the federal government agrees to provide research funding for them.
Commentary: Hopefully this finding will give new momentum for efforts to pass federal stem cell funding legislation.
