University study sheds light on human embryonic stem cells’ DNA changes

****Images available***

A study on the genome of human embryonic stem cells
(hESCs) has brought scientist closer to identify and circumvent the adverse DNA
changes that naturally occur when these cells are multiplied in laboratory. The
findings could help researchers to prevent deleterious mutations in cultured
hESCs- a factor that hampers their future medical use – advancing towards application
of stem-cells-based regener...
