Stem cells: controversy between the Church and the Telethon

Publication date 30/11/2006 From €100.00

Stem cells: medicine of tomorrow?

A few days before the 20th edition of the Téléthon, the controversy between the Association française contre les myopathies (AFM) and the Catholic Church has risen a notch. The Church questions the use of the funds raised for research on embryonic stem cells and the screening of sick embryos during in vitro fertilization, which she considers contrary to Christian ethics. This opposition worries the Telethon officials, who fear the repercussions on donations. Commentary on illustration images (laboratory, cells under the microscope) alternating with the interviews of Michel DUBOST, bishop of Evry-Corbeil-Essonnes, and René FRYDMAN, gynecology-obstetric service reproductive medicine, Hôpital Béclère.

Umbilical cord blood donation

Publication date 20/01/2010 From €100.00

Stem cells: medicine of tomorrow?

The cord blood contains stem cells that save patients with serious illnesses.

French researchers discover how to make blood from stem cells

Publication date 02/09/2011 From €100.00

Stem cells: medicine of tomorrow?

A team from the hospital Saint-Antoine in Paris managed to create and manufacture human blood from stem cells and even transfused it, a world first. It took six years of efforts by French researchers to produce some human blood. They took a donor of bone marrow stem cells and cultured them for three weeks to get a hundred billion red blood cells and put them back into the donor’s body: a successful experiment. Professor Luc DOUAY, researcher at the Inserm: "these red blood cells, once injected into humans, behave in the same way as the red blood cells injected during a conventional transfusion. So this is a formal demonstration that these red blood cells are functional. ' This is a breakthrough. Until now, all attempts at artificial blood transfusion have been unsuccessful. There are other steps that have to be taken. The experiment has been successful in self-transfusion. You now have to get a transfusion with two separate people. You don’t know how to make blood in large quantities. Marie Catherine GIARRATANA, research engineer at the Pierre and Marie Curie University: "It will take another 5 to 10 years, if only for the development of new technological tools. We’re working on it, so meet in 7-10 for the first massive productions." A hope. But in the meantime, blood donation will remain the only resource for transfusions. 500,000 people are transfused every year in France. We need 9000 blood bags a day.
