     Extractions: Animal cloning, and more particularly pet cloning, (dogs, cats and horses) is likely to be commercially available to many animal owners within a decade. If you want a valued animal cloned or to take advantage of the many advances in genetic science not yet commercially available, You must have living cells from your animal properly preserved. By cryopreserving a small skin sample from your animal you will have the option to participate in such advances long after the animal has passed away. the growing list of successfully cloned animals... cats deer cows pigs sheep goats Learning about cryopreservation and cloning and selecting a gene bank should be fairly simple. We are one of a very few highly reputable gene banks who provide comparable services. However, Lazaron will not charge you extra for emergency, rush or deceased animal services. There is no reason to pay hundreds of dollars more to have your animals cells preserved. We believe that it is important that our potential clients have a clear understanding of cryopreservation and cloning as well as who we are at Lazaron. Before you make any decisions about genetic cryopreservation, call Lazaron and discuss your circumstances with one of our reproductive physiologists. Select one of the topics listed in the upper left margin (or at the bottom of the page) to learn more about cloning your animal and the need to preserve genetic material. Lazaron wants to help you make an informed decision while your animal is still with you.

Time.com People Fortune EW InStyle Business 2.0 Editor's Note: CNN Access is a regular feature on CNN.com providing interviews with newsmakers from around the world. CNN anchor Daryn Kagan talked Monday with Art Caplan, Center for Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania, about the ethics of human cloning. KAGAN: The first thing you've got to think is this is scary stuff, 200 people, 200 potential cloned babies running around out there. CAPLAN: It is scary. Dr. [Panos] Zavos and his group have been kind of the high-flying showbiz operators of cloning. They keep saying they're going to do this. I have to say, if you looked at the animal work that's been done and the people who really know this procedure of cloning, that is, veterinarians who try it in animals, the procedure is just not safe. And while Zavos and his group keep saying [they've] got something different, no one seems to know what it is. I'm really worried that what they're going to do here is make a dead or deformed baby, not a healthy one.

     Extractions: Recombinant DNA and Gene Cloning Index to this page Recombinant DNA is DNA that has been created artificially. DNA from two or more sources is incorporated into a single recombinant molecule. Treat DNA from both sources with the same restriction endonuclease (BamHI in this case). BamHI cuts the same site on both molecules 5' GGATCC 3' 3' CCTAGG 5' The ends of the cut have an overhanging piece of single-stranded DNA. These are called "sticky ends" because they are able to base pair with any DNA molecule containing the complementary sticky end. In this case, both DNA preparations have complementary sticky ends and thus can pair with each other when mixed. DNA ligase covalently links the two into a molecule of recombinant DNA To be useful , the recombinant molecule must be replicated many times to provide material for analysis, sequencing , etc. Producing many identical copies of the same recombinant molecule is called cloning . Cloning can be done in vitro , by a process called the polymerase chain reaction PCR ). Here, however, we shall examine how cloning is done

     http://cnn.com/2002/ALLPOLITICS/05/01/senate.cloning/index.html
     
     Extractions: WASHINGTON (CNN) After what he termed "countless hours of study, reflection and prayer," Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, Tuesday joined a bi-partisan group of senators in sponsoring a bill that would ban most human cloning but allow an exception for research purposes. "I come to this issue with a strong pro-life, pro-family record. But I also strongly believe that a critical part of being pro-life is to support measures that help the living," said Hatch, who was also one of a handful of senators opposed to abortion who supported federal funding for stem cell research. A competing bill, backed by President Bush, would ban all cloning. Hatch said he decided to co-sponsor the measure because he believes cloning for research has promise in finding cures to disease. Other sponsors of the measure include Sens. Ted Kennedy, D-Massachusetts, Dianne Feinstein, D-California, Arlen Specter, R-Pennsylvania and Zell Miller, D-Georgia. The bill would make human cloning a federal crime, with penalties up to $1 million dollars and 10 years in prison. But it would allow research cloning, or what scientists refer to as "regenerative cloning."

     Extractions: August 1, 1998 Myths About Twins: Public Perceptions Of Cloning Another theme in public perceptions of cloning is the "good-and-evil twins". Twins are feared in many cultures, and sometimes one is killed at birth. Mythological themes attached to twins include the following: l. A "good twin" must have an "evil" twin counterpart. DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE is an example of the theme, although only one person is involved. 2. Twins struggle for supremacy and inheritance. Examples are Jacob and Esau in the Bible, and Romulus and Remus, the co-founders of Rome. 3. Twins have special powers, which may be evil. Dorothy C. Wertz

     http://www.truthtree.com/clone.shtml
     
     Extractions: Dolly, the first viable clone of a sheep, was created in the following manner. A developing egg cell from the ovary of a sheep was enucleated (had its nucleus removed) and fused with a somatic mammary cell from another adult sheep. This fusion was accomplished by placing the two cells close to each other and passing an electric current through them. The resulting cell, actually a zygote, was then treated in a way similar to that used with in vitro fertilization. ( In vitro The successful cloning of a sheep aroused much interest because of the obvious implication that humans might also be cloned in a similar fashion. Many different animals have been cloned now including mice and monkeys, and it appears quite certain that humans can be cloned. Indeed, human clones may already have been produced. Any such cloning procedure would probably not be advertised because of the strident objections that have been raised against the procedure.

     Extractions: No Picture or Graphic on this site may used without written consent. March 31, 2004 The research was conducted in mice and the results of the study are published in the April 2, 2004, edition of the journal Science. Specifically, the OHSU scientists wanted to determine the effects of this early-life leptin surge on brain development. The researchers studied two types of mice: leptin-deficient mice and normal mice. Leptin-deficient mice are typically obese because they lack this important hormone that limits food intake. Bouret also tested the brain structure impacts of the hormone on adult leptin-deficient mice. In that case, leptin did not affect brain cell development. This demonstrates there is a specific window of time early in life when leptin impacts axon development in the ARH. In addition to his post at ONPRC, Simerly is a researcher in the new OHSU Center for Weight Regulation and Associated Disorders. The center conducts research into causes of and treatments for obesity. Prior to the creation of this center, OHSU has been involved in a number of key weight regulation discoveries, including the identification of specific cells in the brain involved in weight control. OHSU researchers have also identified hormones involved in weight loss and weight gain. The ONPRC is a registered research institution, inspected regularly by the United States Department of Agriculture. It operates in compliance with the Animal Welfare Act and has an assurance of regulatory compliance on file with the National Institutes of Health. The ONPRC also participates in the voluntary accreditation program overseen by the Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care International.

116. NIMR :: Mill Hill Essays 1997 :: Cloning
     cloning. by Rosa Beddington Of similarity. Novelists and film makers have not been slow to exploit the imagery afforded by cloning.  
     http://www.nimr.mrc.ac.uk/MillHillEssays/1997/cloning.htm
     
     Extractions: Since our genes dictate to a large extent what we look like, how we behave and what we can and cannot do, having identical genes, as identical twins do, ensures something more than mere similarity. Novelists and film makers have not been slow to exploit the imagery afforded by cloning. Limitless numbers of identical beings manufactured from existing or previous generations has obvious dramatic potential, although seldom of a reassuring nature. Clones traverse the cinema screen as crowds of dehumanised humans destined for monotonous drudgery, as invincible armies of lookalikes from outer space, as replicas of living megalomaniacs and, in the ultimate fantasy, as the resurrected dead - troupes of little Hitlers and herds of rampaging dinosaurs. Of course, this is science fiction. Nonetheless there is just a whiff of plausibility, a whisker of scientific credibility; enough to plant an indelible vision of what might be, or even what could be. a priori unnatural about cloning.

     Extractions: HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Advances in knowledge and related developments in the procedures of molecular biology, genetics and artificial fertilization have long made it possible to experiment with and successfully achieve the cloning of plants and animals. Since the '30s experiments have been made in producing identical individuals by artificial twin splitting, a procedure which can be improperly called cloning. The practice of twin splitting in the zootechnical field has been spreading in experimental barns as an incentive to the multiple production of select exemplars. In 1993 Jerry Hall and Robert Stilmann of George Washington University published data concerning the twin splitting they performed on human embryos of two, four and eight embryoblasts. These experiments were conducted without the prior consent of the appropriate Ethics Committee and were published, according to the authors, in order to stimulate the ethical debate.

     Human cloning Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaHuman cloning. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Understanding cloning. The meaning of human cloning is often misunderstood.  
     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloning
     
     Extractions: Cloning is the process of creating an identical copy of an original. A clone in the biological sense, therefore, is a multi-cellular organism that is genetically identical to another living organism. Sometimes this can refer to "natural" clones made either when an organism reproduces asexually or when two genetically identical individuals are produced by accident (as with identical twins ), but in common parlance the clone is an identical copy by some conscious design. The term clone is derived from , the Greek word for "twig". In horticulture , the spelling clon was used until the twentieth century; the final e came into use to indicate the vowel is a "long o" instead of a "short o". Since the term entered the popular lexicon in a more general context, the spelling clone has been used exclusively. In biology , cloning is used in two contexts: cloning a gene , or cloning an organism . Cloning a gene means to extract a gene from one organism (for example by PCR) and insert it into a second organism (usually via a vector ), where it can be used and studied. Cloning a gene sometimes can refer to success in identifying a gene associated with some
