Vatican newspaper calls new stem cell source 'future of medicine' [CNA]

[CNA_News]

Rome, Italy, Feb 3, 2010 / 07:22 pm (CNA).- The Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano republished an interview on Wednesday detailing current research on a new source of stem cells that is being called “the future of medicine.”

According to the Vatican newspaper, the pioneering research is presently taking place at the Biocell Center of Busto Arsizio in Milan and involves using stem cells taken from amniotic fluid to create a retinal regeneration therapy. This stem cell source is considered morally licit as it does not require the destruction of human embryos.

In an interview with Giuseppe Simoni, an Italian biologist and geneticist from Milan, L’Osservatore Romano’s Joseph Reguzzoni shed light on amniotic stem cells, which are now at the forefront of genetic research. The interview was originally published in September-December 2009 edition of the magazine “Communio.”

If anyone really wants to educate themselves on the stem cell issue pick up the book
called “Check with Chip on Stem Cell Research” by Chip Maxwell. He cuts through all
the technical jargon and explains it clearly in laymen terms. I highly recommend it. He
also points out the lies and misconceptions that are being perpetrated by M.J.Fox and
company.

God Bless you
