Single-parent stem cells may skirt cloning controversy

Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine have derived uniparental embryonic stem cells--created from a single donor's eggs or two sperm--and, for the first time, successfully used them to repopulate a damaged organ with healthy cells in adult mice. Their findings demonstrate that single-parent stem cells can proliferate normally in an adult organ and could provide a less controversial alternative to the therapeutic cloning of embryonic stem …
