In February 2020, Cadila Healthcare decided to develop a DNA plasmid based COVID-19 vaccine at their Vaccine Technology Centre (VTC) in Ahmedabad. [6] The vaccine candidate was able to pass the pre-clinical trials on animal models successfully. A report of the study was made available via bioRxiv and later published in the journal Vaccine.
Hwang claimed to have created eleven different patient-specific stem cell lines. This would have been the first major breakthrough in human cloning. [7] However, in 2006 Science retracted both of his articles on account of clear evidence that much of his data from the experiments was fabricated. [8]
Sinogene, a Beijing, China-based biotechnology company, was reported in December 2017 to have cloned Apple, a gene-edited dog, named "Longlong". In 2019, the first batch of monotocous cloned police dogs was born. [36] [37] [38] Argentine president Javier Milei owns five English mastiffs who are clones of his now-deceased dog Conan. [39]
From the early outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, rumors and speculation arose about the possible lab origins of SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of the COVID-19 disease. . Different versions of the lab origin hypothesis present different scenarios in which a bat-borne progenitor of SARS-COV-2 may have spilled over to humans, including a laboratory-acquired infection of a natural or engineered vi
The monkey clones were made to study several medical diseases. [81] [82] Black-footed ferret: (2020) A team of scientists cloned a female named Willa, who died in the mid-1980s and left no living descendants. Her clone, a female named Elizabeth Ann, was born on 10 December.
The post Owner Spends $50,000 on Cat Clones, Receives Two Genetic Copies appeared first on CatTime. In a story that blends science and heartache, a Canadian woman has achieved the extraordinary ...
The first documented COVID-19 infection was in a worker at a seafood stall in the Huanan market. [78] Sequences from that patient have not been published; however, SARS-CoV-2 belonging to lineage B/L were detected in environmental samples from the patient's stall. [ 78 ]
Controversy surrounds human ESC work due to the destruction of viable human embryos, leading scientists to seek alternative methods of obtaining pluripotent stem cells, SCNT is one such method. A potential use of stem cells genetically matched to a patient would be to create cell lines that have genes linked to a patient's particular disease.
