Somatic cell nuclear transfer works by inserting the genetic material from a patient's cell - usually from a skin cell - into an unfertilized egg from another person.
-
There are many types of cells in the body and they have been classified in several ways. basic structure (for example, cuboidal cells); tissue type (for example, hepatocytes of the liver); germinal cells (for example, ova and sperm); and somatic cells (for example, non-reproductive cells of the body).
Toxicology
-
Another important difference between plant and animal cells is that a complete, fertile plant can develop from a single somatic cell and not just from a fertilized egg.
-
Notably, these studies demonstrated that somatic cells carrying a single proviral copy of the polycistronic cassette can be reprogrammed to pluripotency, substantially reducing genomic modification of the target cell.

-
Our results indicated that culturable somatic cells could be retrieved from bovine organs that had been frozen without cryoprotectant and that the cells could be used for nuclear transfer.
