| There are currently researchers working across the country transplanting embryonic stem cells into rats. |
| Scientists have long known that bone marrow stem cells regenerate blood cells. |
| Scientists were harvesting these stem cells from embryos left over from IVF treatments or using aborted embryos. |
| Recent studies indicate that mesenchymal stem cells not only differentiate into osteoblasts but also into adipocytes. |
| The radiation treatment destroys the tumor cells and suppresses the function of the stem cells in preparation for the transplant. |
| The purified stem cells normally give rise to cells that mature into red blood cells and white blood cells. |
