Toward People" by Christopher Mario Perhaps the most famous part of the Sistine Chapel ceiling is called "The Creation of Man," where God and Adam sail through the clouds with arms outstretched, the tips of their index fingers just barely touching. Standing in Rome beneath the ceiling your eye is drawn inexorably to that point of contact, the few square inches of plaster and paint that is Michelangelo's illustration of humanity's most enduring mystery: the transmission of the spark of life. The British scientists who cloned Dolly, the most famous sheep in the history of the world after all the media coverage last week, also used a spark to jump-start their creation. But lacking the hand of God, they employed an altogether more prosaic jolt of electricity to coax a sheep ovum the DNA-containing nucleus of which they had replaced with a mammary gland cell taken from a six-year-old ewe to life.

The new laws, drawn up to close a legal loophole in Britain after the High Court ruled that cloning humans was not illegal, would not have outlawed the American research. The private U.S. research company Advanced Cell Technology (ACT), based in Worcester, Massachusetts behind Sunday's breakthrough said its scientists had produced "preimplantation embryos" but were aiming to use them for research to treat disease, not to create a cloned human being.

The company that funded the first successful cloning of a domestic cat two years ago has gone commercial. An e-mail sent in early February to the company's gene-banking clients offered to clone up to six cats. The cost? U.S. $50,000 each. Clients had less than a month to take advantage of the offer, which ended Friday, February 27. A cloned cat is a unique, newborn animal that shares genes and possibly behavioral tendencies with its genetic predecessor. Ben Carlson, vice president of communications for Genetic Savings and Clone, said four clients signed up to duplicate their cats, and work to reproduce the pets will begin immediately. The privately held company based in Sausalito, California, plans to present the clones to owners in November. Three cats owned by the company will also be copied. The cats and their genetic donors will be displayed at the American Veterinary Medical Association conference next year, Carlson said, to give veterinarians an opportunity to see them and learn about the technology.

Time.com People Fortune EW InStyle Business 2.0 What's at stake in the 'cloning wars'? By Jeffrey P. Kahn, Ph.D., M.P.H. Director, Center for Bioethics University of Minnesota (CNN) We may have gotten a glimpse this week of what's at stake in the "cloning wars" taking shape on Capitol Hill. News came out of London that an 18-month-old boy named Rhys Evans had been successfully treated by gene therapy for a deadly genetic defect in his immune system. Rhys was suffering from severe combined immune deficiency, SCID for short. It's a failure in the immune system caused by a single mistake in his genetic makeup. The disease is also known as "boy in the bubble" disease and was made famous by a movie starring John Travolta as a boy with the disease. Rhys' case and those of a few other children in France are the first successes in the longtime efforts to treat disease at the genetic level, done by inserting a corrected copy of the defective gene into their bone marrow. So what's the connection between gene therapy and the "cloning wars"? What may be at stake is the next generation of research on genetic diseases, since this is exactly the sort of research at issue in the cloning and stem cell research debates.

Time.com People Fortune EW Human cloning easier than thought? DURHAM, North Carolina (CNN) Cloning "may be less complicated in humans than in sheep" because of a subtle genetic difference between humans and most other animals, according to researchers at Duke University. The finding, published Wednesday in the journal Human Molecular Genetics, suggests that humans and primates might not be susceptible to the danger of clones growing dangerously large in the womb. "This is the first concrete genetic data showing that the cloning process could be less complicated in humans than in sheep," said Keith Killian, a molecular evolutionist at Duke University Medical Center who is the first author of the study. Some researchers who say it is not safe to clone humans have told CNN they fear those who do will use the Duke study to validate their claims that cloning a human will not create a grotesquely disfigured baby. RESOURCES On the Scene: CNN's Elizabeth Cohen puts cloning report in perspective EXTRA INFORMATION In-Depth: The stem cell debate Timeline: A chronology of cloning Animation: The cloning process RESOURCES Message board Dr. Randy Jirtle, a professor of radiation oncology at Duke who also authored the study, said: "We don't clone here, we're not planning to clone here and we're not advocating human cloning. We're just interested in the phenomenon of genomic imprinting."

19 May 2005 Cloning of Human Stem Cells Speeds Up Scientists have created nearly a dozen new lines of human embryonic stem (ES) cells that for the first time carry the genetic signature of diseased or injured patients. The breakthrough represents a dramatic increase in the efficiency of creating such lines and may eventually pave the way for treating conditions such as spinal cord injury with stem cell transplants.

Through practice with cow eggs ( above ) and other means, Korean researchers have increased their efficiency at cloning human embryos to create stem cells ( inset CREDIT: Lee Jin-man/AP; (inset) Hwang  et al Last year, a group led by veterinarian Woo Suk Hwang and gynecologist Shin Yong Moon at Seoul National University reported the first derivation of ES cells from human nuclear transfer ( Science , 12 March 2004, p. 1669)a process that involves replacing an oocyte's nucleus with one from a different cell, and then chemically kick-starting development of the egg. But those efforts yielded just one cell line from more than 200 tries. In the new study, reported online today in
