Calif. changes tune on adult stem cells

WASHINGTON (BP)--California's stem cell program has awarded $230 million primarily to non-embryonic research, in the process implicitly admitting embryonic experiments are much further from producing therapies in human beings.
The California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) made grants to only four efforts that involve embryonic stem cells, while making 10 others to non-embryonic projects, according to The New York Times. CIRM, the $3 billion, 10-year effort approved by voters in 2004, began in response to President Bush's policy that barred federal funds for stem cell research that results in the destruction of human embryos. Extracting stem cells from an embryo destroys the days-old human being.
One project approved for funding Oct. 28 involves extracting stem cells from a person's heart and inserting them back into his heart to repair heart attack damage, The Times reported. The study leader, Eduardo Marban of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, said embryonic stem cells may not help such patients. "The last thing we want to do is grow rogue heart cells," he said, according to The Times. Embryonic stem-cell research has been plagued by the development of tumors in lab animals.
Bioethics specialist Wesley Smith said of Marban's comment, "Funny when [embryonic stem cell research] opponents used to make that very claim, they were hooted down by 'the scientists' and their camp followers in the media."...."
