Both basic research and clinical application of human embryonic pluripotent stem cells were hindered by these 3 basic problems.

这3个基本问题限制了人胚胎多能干细胞的基础和临床应用研究。

To Loring's surprise, however, the corresponding human genes did transform both animals' cells into embryonic-like stem cells called induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells).

然而令Loring惊喜的是，相应的人类基因确实能把这两种动物的细胞转换成称为诱导多能干细胞(iPS细胞)的类胚胎干细胞。

The team plans to soon use the model to see whether they can generate organs using transplanted embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells rather than mature liver cells.

该团队计划尽快使用该模型来研究他们是否能使用移植的胚胎和诱导的多向干细胞而不是成熟的肝细胞来产生器官。

Those are called embryonic stem cells, they are self-renewing, and they are pluripotent, meaning they have many potencies.

这些称为胚胎干细胞,它们可以自我更新,且是多能干细胞,即它们有多种潜能

Defenders of embryonic stem cell work say that it is important even in understand adult stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells, which resemble the embryonic cells but can be created without destroying embryos.

What remains to be seen is whether these cloned embryonic stem cells are more useful therapeutically than the noncontroversial induced pluripotent stem cells, and questions linger about their effectiveness.

That technique for generating embryonic-like stem cells (called induced pluripotent stem cells, or iPS cells) bypassed the need for transferring the cells into eggs, as Wilmut had done, and also averted the ethical issues attached to extracting stem cells from embryos as Thomson had done.
