Nuclear transfer cloning could eventually make it possible to use cell samples from a burn or accident victim to generate his or her own replacement skin, cartilage, and bone tissue. The same technique may produce cells that can be used in cancer therapy, or to regenerate retinal or spinal cord tissue. 2, record 1, English, - nuclear%20transfer%20cloning

Transferencia de núcleos procedentes de blastómeros embrionarios o de células fetales en cultivo a óvulos no fecundados enucleados y a veces, a zigotos enucleados. El "progenitor" de los clones es el embrión o feto. 2, record 1, Spanish, - paraclonaci%C3%B3n

Paraclonación: por transferencia de núcleos de células embrionarias o fetales de un cultivo primario o de un cultivo celular. Estos núcleos se transfieren a un óvulo enucleado o a un zigoto al que se le hayan eliminado los pronúcleos. Este óvulo receptor aporta mitocondrias, y en el caso de zigoto, algo del espermatozoide. El resultado: individuos casi idénticos entre sí, pero diferentes de los progenitores del embrión que aportó el núcleo transferido. Se pierde una generación, ya que el embrión donante del núcleo se destruye. Los individuos nacidos así se parecerían (desde el punto de vista del genoma nuclear) al individuo que hubiera surgido del embrión destruido. 3, record 1, Spanish, - paraclonaci%C3%B3n

Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) cloning ... is accomplished by taking two cells – an egg cell from a female and a somatic cell from the person or animal to be cloned. The nucleus of the egg cell is removed and discarded. The nucleus from the somatic cell is then transferred to the [enucleated] egg cell. The egg cell and its new nucleus are fused together with the expectation it will grow. If cell division and growth is accomplished, the clone’s life has begun. 3, record 2, English, - somatic%20cell%20nuclear%20transfer%20cloning

Therapeutic cloning ... involves taking an egg (or oocyte) from which the nucleus has been removed, and replacing that nucleus with [the nucleus] from the cell of another organism.

On laisserait l’embryon se développer pendant quelques jours seulement, jusqu’au stade blastocyte, sur lequel on prélèverait des cellules souches qui seraient cultivées et serviraient au traitement du malade.

La clonación terapéutica consiste en fabricar células madre del paciente por el siguiente procedimiento. Se toma una célula suya cualquiera [...] Le sacamos el núcleo con los cromosomas dentro. A continuación obtenemos un óvulo sin fecundar [...] y tiramos su núcleo con sus cromosomas. Metemos el núcleo de la célula del paciente dentro del óvulo. Obtenemos así un óvulo [...] que tiene completados todos los pares de cromosomas. De alguna forma se consigue que el óvulo empiece a dividirse. [...] los descendientes de este óvulo son células madre que tienen el mismo ADN que el paciente [...] y por lo tanto no causarán rechazo cuando se le inyecten. [...] la lista de enfermedades devastadoras que se cree que se podrían curar o aliviar con técnicas similares incluye la diabetes, cirrosis, leucemia, osteoporosis [...] y otras. 3, record 3, Spanish, - clonaci%C3%B3n%20terap%C3%A9utica
