2007年11月20日,两本权威期刊《科学》及《细胞》同时刊出一项研究报告。来自美国及日本两个研究团队在干细胞研究中有重大技术突破。两个研究小组都利用了相同的技术通过基因重新编排,使皮肤细胞具备胚胎干细胞的功能。该项研究成果一经发表,引起全球轰动,被誉为生命科学研究的里程碑,美国《时代》杂志将其评为2007年十大科学发现之首。该技术解决了利用胚胎进行干细胞研究所引发的伦理道德争议,并突破了以往只能利用卵子和胚胎的取材限制,为未来干细胞用于个体治疗带来了希望,为干细胞研究和产业转化打开了科技和财富的大门。
On November 20, 2007, two authoritative journals, Science and Cell, also published a research report. Two research teams from the United States and Japan have major technological breakthroughs in stem cell research. Both groups use the same technology to make skin cells function as embryonic stem cells by gene rearrangement. The research results once published, caused a global sensation, known as a milestone in life science research, the United States, “Time” magazine named it as the top ten scientific discoveries in 2007. This technology solves the ethical controversy stemming from embryonic stem cell research and breaks through the limitation of access to eggs and embryos in the past, offers hope for future use of stem cells for individual treatment, opens the door for stem cell research and industrial transformation Technology and wealth of the door.
