The Ethical Implications on Stem-Cell Research for Physicians

Should life be improved at the expense of the beginners of life in the name of research ? This is the major question in stem cell research Stem cell research involves processes such as culturing and isolation of the embryonic stem cells . The embryonic stem cell was found to be suitable by scientists due to its ability to differentiate into so many different cells . This is more advantageous if compared to the adult stem cell that

only differentiate to specific cells . The embryonic stem cell is still that of a developing human being and therefore can develop into any type of cell . This is normally found in the early stage of the embryo (Monroe et al . 169

The embryonic germ (EG ) also has similar properties as the embryonic stem . These embryonic germs originate from the fetus primordial reproductive cells . This is the knowledge causing contradictions with the leaders of several churches for example catholics , and some other members of the community who believe that an embryo is already a human being . Scientists thought they made a major break through by finding out about the stem cell and the embryonic germ , but ethical implications seem to be creating some resistance to their use . Scientists did recognize the importance of these cells in the generation of more specialized cells and tissues which could help in the treatment of several diseases . Since the cells are able to develop any type of...
