Karl Oskar Illmensee (1939?)

چکیده
Karl Oskar Illmensee studied the cloning [2] and reproduction of fruit flies, mice, and humans [3] in the US and Europe during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Illmensee used nuclear transfer techniques (cloning [2]) to create early mouse [4] embryos from adult mouse [4] cells, a technique biologists used in later decades to help explain how embryonic cells function during development. In the early 1980s, Illmensee faced accusations of fraud when others were unable to replicate the results of his experiments with cloned mouse [4] embryos. Illmensee also worked with human embryos, investigating how embryos split to form identical twins.

Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer in Mammals (1938-2013)
In the second half of the twentieth century, scientists learned how to clone some species of mammals. Scientists have applied somatic cell nuclear transfer [5] to clone human and mammalian embryos as a means to produce stem cells [6] for laboratory and medical use. Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is a technology applied in cloning [7], stem cell research, and regenerative medicine [8]. Som...
متن کاملEmbryo biotechnology in reproductive medicine
Mammalian embryo biotechnology with multiple applications in reproductive and therapeutic medicine has been summarized in this review article. Risk factors at the molecular, genetic and chromosomal level that profoundly influence the outcome of reproductive cloning have been included for serious considerations. Interspecies embryo cloning has turned out to be a unique bioassay to reveal the emb...
