Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pennsylvania, had added language to the Labor, Health and Human Services spending bill that would have allowed couples to donate for research embryos that otherwise would have been discarded, going beyond President Bush's position on stem cells. But in a sign of the changed times, Specter and other supporters of broader federal funding for stem cell research than the administration backs agreed to defer their fight until next year.

Q: How do doctors propose to do this cloning procedure, and what is its intended purpose? Bittermann: Basically what the doctors here say is that they want to help couples who would like to have children to have children. That is one of the reasons why they have received so many hundreds of volunteers from all over the world who'd like to take part in these experiments. What they are not saying is that in fact cloning is an extremely complicated affair, and in the case of the animals that have been cloned like the sheep for instance, there have been hundreds of miscues of mistakes where a fully formed being is not created at the end of the process.

Professor Severino Antinori, who will unveil his plans before the National Association of Sciences in Washington D.C. on Tuesday, hopes to begin a human cloning programme in November using 200 infertile couples. But critics say that the process used to create Dolly the sheep in 1997 - carries a very high risk of miscarriage and deformity. Even Dr. Ian Wilmut, who led the team that created Dolly, said it took 277 tries to get it right in a sheep and does not support human cloning. Ethical and religious groups argue Antinori's team and other cloning researchers are trying to "play God." Biochemist Art Caplan, of the University of Pennsylvania, told CNN: "This procedure is just not safe."

    Extractions: Cloning is not new. Experiments with frogs and toads date back to the 1970s . And experiments involving plants and animal embryos have been performed for years. But experiments involving human beings have never been tried or thought possible, until "Dolly." Her birth shocked the scientific community and has spurred discussion about the possibility of human clones. Dr. Lee Silver, a molecular biologist at Princeton University, is optimistic that "human cloning will occur," and that "it might take five years, ten years at the outermost." Lee notes that at this time, "no ethical doctor would do human cloning" ( Clones 2 ). Although this view is predominant among many scientists, some argue that a safe technology could be developed in the future. This has led to discussion about whether human cloning should even be legally possible.

    Extractions: Human Cloning Scientists at the Roslin Institute in Scotland shocked the world last February when they announced that they had cloned the first mammal - a sheep named "Dolly". "Dolly" was cloned using a method called somatic cell nuclear transfer. Great controversy arose when it was suggested that this method could also be used to clone humans beings. The word "cloning" is used to define replication of cells, tissues, embryos, and genes. It is important to note that the greatest controversy arises from somatic cell nuclear transfer - the process that could potentially be used to clone humans.

    Extractions: CNN WASHINGTON (CNN) The White House believes all forms of human cloning should be banned, whether it's for reproduction or for medical research, an administration official told legislators Wednesday. President Bush and Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson "make very clear they oppose any and all attempts to clone a human being," said Claude Allen, deputy secretary for the Department of Health and Human Services. Allen addressed members of a House subcommittee considering two bills that would restrict cloning. One would ban all forms of human cloning, while another would restrict cloning intended to create a pregnancy but allowing some research. Without endorsing the more restrictive bill, Allen said embryos cloned for research could be used too easily for reproductive purposes. "The administration believes it's in the best interest at this time to ban both research as well as reproductive cloning because the easy step that moves us across that line we all agree is reprehensible," Allen said.

Gene back to tell you all about cloning. It's all over the news with identical sheep (as if they don't look enough alike already) and tomatoes that stay fresh on the shelves for a longer time. The words 'cloning' and 'genetic engineering' are often used by people as though they mean the same thing. Well, they have an overlapping meaning that becomes clear when we look through history. "Genetic engineering, in its broadest definition, means to manipulate a species so that a particular trait is increased in the population. A trait is how an organism looks or acts or what it does. Brown eyes is a trait. Flying in circles is a trait. Climbing trees is a trait. "The earliest forms of genetic engineering occurred on farms, where most people on earth lived at the time. They managed to do this by selecting seeds from plants that maybe had more fruit production or tastier leaves than other plants of its type.

Advanced Cell Technology Inc. of Worcester, Massachusetts, said the experiment was aimed not at creating a human being but at mining the embryo for stem cells used to treat disease. Stem cells are a kind of master cell that can grow into any kind of cell in the body. The company's study was also published in an online scientific journal. "I'm just trying to help people who are sick, and really that's our focus," said Dr. Michael West, the company's president and CEO. He called the development "the first, halting steps" toward a new area of medicine. Speaking on CNN's "Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer," West disputed the suggestion the work amounted to the creation of a human being.

Time.com People Fortune EW InStyle Business 2.0 COLUMBIA, Missouri (CNN) Researchers say they've taken a major step toward cloning pigs whose hearts, lungs and kidneys could be safely transplanted into humans. Such organs would save the lives of thousands of critically ill people who cannot get transplants because of the shortage of human organs. Using the same cloning technique that created the sheep Dolly, scientists say they produced four piglets without one of two genes that lead to the massive rejections that have plagued efforts at xenotransplantation the process of replacing human organs with animal organs. "We've knocked out one copy of the gene known to cause this immune response," said Randall Prather at the University of Missouri-Columbia, who performed the nuclear transfer that produced the piglets. "Now we have to do other studies to make the double knockout." QUICKVOTE Do you see an ethical dilemma in the development of pig organs for safe transplantation into humans?

    Extractions: Inside China's race to become the clone capital of the world. By Charles C. Mann I am peering into a laboratory microscope at what is sort of a cloned human being. Sort of a cloned human being because it's only a blastocyst, a very early stage embryo that's floating under the microscope like a tiny bit of soap foam. And also sort of because this blastocyst was created by inserting all the DNA from a human being into the egg of a rabbit. Sacha Waldman This little swimming experiment in interspecies biology is taking place not in some high tech office park or Ivy League research lab, but on the top floor of an emergency ward at a shabby hospital complex in mainland China. Downstairs, the reception area is lined with battered folding chairs occupied by patients with makeshift bandages or open wounds. Splashed across the linoleum is what looks like dried blood. But here on the top floor, the elevator opens to a world of $100,000 microscopes, sperm-washing machines, and egg-denucleating micropipettes. Major scientific journals won't publish research that has been described in the popular media, so I have promised not to divulge identifying details about the experiment or the scientist performing it, whom I'll call Dr. X. But I can say that Dr. X's laboratory is one of three I visited in China where researchers are investigating interspecies clones. And I can also say that this experiment would be illicit if not completely illegal in the United States and most of the developed world. But in China it's all legal, every bit of it, which is a big reason why Dr. X moved here after spending a decade at a public institution in the US.
