'Master cell' exempt from U.S. ban on embryo research
10.58 a.m. ET (1559 GMT) January 19, 1999 By Lauran Neergaard, Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal ban on human embryo research does not apply to studies using the new "master cell'' technology that might one day treat heart disease, diabetes and other killers, the head of the National Institutes of Health announced today.
NIH director Harold Varmus said his agency will soon finance such research.
At issue are embryonic stem cells, the basic or primordial cells from which all of a body's tissues and organs develop. With private funding, these cells have recently been derived from embryonic tissue and then grown in laboratories.
