Response to: Dittrich et al.: Non-Embryo-Destructive Extraction of Pluripotent Embryonic Stem Cells – Overlooked Legal Prohibitions, Professional Legal Consequences and Inconsistencies in Patent Law

Abstract: Humane embryonale Stammzellen erfahren in der Forschung Interesse für die Entwicklung neuer regenerativmedizinischer Therapien. Allerdings wird, hier am Beispiel für Deutschland gezeigt, selbst frühen Embryonen, die für die Stammzellengewinnung benötigt werden, von verschiedenen Seiten her der grundgesetzlich gesicherte Schutz der Menschenwürde und der Schutz der körperlichen Unversehrtheit zuerkannt. Die Gewinnung und Verwendung humaner embryonaler Stammzellen beschäftigt daher seit deren ersten Gewinnung und… Show more

“…The authors went on to state: "The non-embryodestructive extraction of pluripotent stem cells from the inner cell mass … is prohibited in Germany, and violations could result in criminal prosecution … These procedures are not permitted as they are not conducive to preserving the embryo." [1]. We discussed preimplantation therapy (PIT) as a potential area where the patent could be used, i.e., conditions in which genetically anomalous cells could be "repaired" in vitro to allow the embryo to become viable.…”
