☆ Scientists create chimeric monkey with two sets of DNA
  + stars: | 2023-11-09 | by ( Katie Hunt | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +7 min
CNN —Scientists based in China have created a monkey chimera with two sets of DNA, experimental work they say could ultimately benefit medical research and the conservation of endangered species. It’s the world’s first live birth of a primate chimera created with stem cells, the researchers said. Scientists have created mouse embryos that are part human, and in 2021, scientists reported that they had grown human-monkey chimeric embryos. In September, researchers reported that they had grown kidneys containing mostly human cells inside pig embryos. Then they selected a subset of cells to inject into genetically distinct 4- to 5-day-old embryos from the same monkey species.

☆ Lab models of human embryos raise hopes and concerns
  + stars: | 2023-10-26 | by ( Katie Hunt | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +14 min
From the moment sperm fuses with an egg, human embryo development involves a string of complex and little understood processes. What happens during human embryo development, particularly in the crucial first month, remains largely unknown. However, 14 days is an important milestone because it is when permitted lab research on cultured human embryos routinely ends. He said, in the future, it might be possible to go as far as 40 days with human embryo models. Some in the field envision a “tipping point” wherein human embryo models might be afforded some protection like those surrounding human embryos, as scientific advances diminish the differences between the embryo models and their real-life counterparts.

☆ Israeli Scientists Create Model of Human Embryo Without Eggs or Sperm

REHOVOT, Israel (Reuters) - Scientists in Israel have created a model of a human embryo from stem cells in the laboratory, without using sperm, eggs or a womb, offering a unique glimpse into the early stages of embryonic development. "The question is, when does an embryo model become considered an embryo? At the moment we are really, really far off from that point," said team leader Jacob Hanna. "None of these models fully recapitulate natural human development but each adds to ways in which many aspects of human development can now be studied experimentally," she said. The study raises some ethical questions over the possibility of potential future manipulation in human embryo development, Hanna and others noted.

The Israeli team emphasised that they were a long way from being able to create an embryo from scratch. "The question is, when does an embryo model become considered an embryo? At the moment we are really, really far off from that point," said team leader Jacob Hanna. "None of these models fully recapitulate natural human development but each adds to ways in which many aspects of human development can now be studied experimentally," she said.

☆ Scientists grew a model human embryo in a lab without a sperm or egg, bringing humans one step closer to understanding the secrets of how our bodies are built

Scientists used stem cells to create a model of an embryo in the lab without sperm or egg. Researchers brought us one step closer to understanding those early days by making a model of a human embryo in the lab, without using sperm or eggs. How scientists grew a model human embryo without a sperm or eggAn illustration of embryonic stem cells. Stem cells are cells that form other, more complex cell types depending on what messages the body sends them. Starting with stem cells, the researchers turned them into types of cells that make up a human embryo, from placenta to fetus.

☆ Scientists Debut Lab Models of Human Embryos
  + stars: | 2023-06-24 | by ( Carl Zimmer | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
In its first week, a fertilized human egg develops into a hollow ball of 200 cells and then implants itself on the wall of the uterus. Over the next three weeks, it divides into the distinct tissues of a human body. And those crucial few weeks remain, for the most part, a black box. Dr. Hanna and a number of other biologists are trying to uncover those details by creating models of human embryos in the lab. They are coaxing stem cells to organize themselves into clumps that take on some of the crucial hallmarks of real embryos.

While much of the shortage is driven by imperfect logistics and bureaucracy rather than supply, cutting-edge research could make organs — human, pig, or synthetic — more accessible in Graham's lifetime.
