I keep saying I'm not going to post anything else from That's Fit for a while, but this was just way too cool to ignore.
"Scientists clone mice from hair follicle stem cell
Posted: Feb 14th 2007 10:17AM by Brian White
As stem cell research marches on these days, there is no lack of news on how using stem cells may be able to one day cur all kinds of diseases and ailments -- and to clone mammals.
The 'clone mammals' part is a little disconcerting to many, but researchers have reported as of this week that mice have been cloned using stem cells -- from the hair follicles of those same mice.
The U.S. team of researchers says that the stem cells from adult mice are relatively easy to obtain and inject. Will this be opening the door to more experimentation on the cloning of mammals from their own stem cells? Science marches on."
