摘要：AbstractStem cells are neither differentiated nor specialized cells, which carry the potential to become any body tissue that one can think of. Differentiation of the cells occurs when a single fertilized egg follows the process of becoming a fully grown human. Stem cells can be stimulated under laboratory conditions to transform into specialized cells with specific functions, such as heart muscle cells, blood cells, or nerve cells when required. Researchers claim that it carries the potential to deliver beneficial treatments to a large portion of diseases where cells have been damaged. The ethical discussion relating to stem cells is closely linked with the way they can be obtained. The aim of this study is to evaluate stem cell research in ethical vision.
