Experts: "Human Sheep" is not terrible human cloning may soon appear
24, British media reported, professor at the University of Nevada, Ismail - Zanjani after 7 years of research, the ultimate use of the sheep injected with human embryonic stem cell technology, successfully bred a human cell contains 15% of the sheep. The news caused great concern to domestic users, this reporter interviewed Ben Wang of China Agricultural University, cloning expert Mr. Li Ning, friends asked him to answer queries in the mind.
Reporter: Hello, Professor Lee! Will the U.S. cultivated "human sheep," the news is true?
Li Ning: Yes, the news should be reliable. As for "human sheep" whether the human cells contain 15% or 10%, 5%, it also requires more accurate detection, it is not clear at present.
China Agricultural University, cloning expert Li Ning.
Reporter: Can you tell us about the University of Nevada, of the specific situation? This outcome is in the industry a great concern?
Li Ning: University of Nevada, and Ismail - Zanjani is still influential in the industry. A few years ago, I had been to the United States University of Nevada, Professor Ismail to visit to discuss cooperation with China could clone things out; It is unfortunate that just is not in school professor, can only find his assistant. Two years ago, I already know to do this work, Professor Ismail, that time has achieved great success. Professor Ismail prestigious in the industry, but he does not like to appear in the media.
Should be said that this results in the industry a great response, even if human cells cultivated with 10% of sheep, in the international arena is quite ahead. The United States strongly support the cloning, Professor Ismail get a lot of research funding, therefore, the results achieved with the support of the Government are inseparable.
Reporter: The "human sheep" what specific technology applications?
Li Ning: mainly used for cultivating the human transplant organs.
Reporter: Currently, there are also great on the cloning controversy, that the human cells and animal cells in combination, will lead to social ethics crisis. This, how do you see? Cloning technology a blessing or a curse?
Li Ning: I definitely support the development of cloning technology, which is a step forward in human sciences, I think the human society will reach a consensus. The emergence of any new thing, both controversial: the 19th century, steam trains in Britain, do not have to cause great panic in it? Take a train that will be sucked away the soul, to be eaten. But the facts have proved that human beings are inseparable from trains, planes, cars these modern means of transport. Reproductive cloning is the essence of technology, human reproductive technology in the previous 80 years or so, has gone through four revolutions: artificial insemination, embryo transfer, IVF, and now cloning. Appear in front of several technologies have also been questioned had it, but now has become accustomed to doing this.
Cloning course, there are negative harm, like car exhaust pollution of the atmosphere will produce the same; but we can target it appears the negative, continue to be addressed one by one, this can be done. We are talking about cloning a little scared of feeling, in fact, because of its ignorance, fear of the unknown. Cloning may not be so much evil, I guess it's harmful pesticides compared to the human body, or pesticides may be more big.
Reporter: Professor Lee, you can introduce to the users current cloning research in China, and China's legislation on the cloning of the situation?
Li Ning: The Chinese in some areas of cloning research made important contributions. Cattle and other species such as cloning, China has the world's first cloned water buffalo. 2005, Shanghai Jiaotong University and the American scientists to conduct human stem cells will be embedded in goats in vivo experiments, the success of 2006. However, compared with Europe and America, the gap remains very wide. United States, Japan and other industrialized countries have cloning technology to achieve a global auction of cloned cattle species, the European Union is also making fast progress in the application.
Present, China has no specific legislation on cloning; not only the Chinese do not, Europe and the United States has no specific law. The United States is only one sector of the health sector management guidance program, China also has a Ministry of Health regulations. I do not agree with some of the experts called for the proposed cloning legislation, currently less than this time, no hurry.
Press: in the near future, human cloning in science fiction will appear in the real world?
Li Ning: the question of human cloning more involved with political, ethical and other issues, and not just a technical issue. Technological breakthroughs will not be very difficult, now pigs, cattle, sheep, horses, cats, dogs and other complex animals have been cloned successfully, and human cloning will not be too far off. However, human reproductive cloning technology is the technology, if put into practice, would produce conflicts such as the rich and poor, elite and class conflicts of civilians, excellent living and the poor living contradiction and so inequalities. Human reason is not reached such a state on the application of cloning technology, but I think once the consensus of human society, may soon appear in the future of human cloning.
