Is embryonic stem cells of any individual can be used for stem cell mediated therapy?

stem cell research is performed on embryo's because the stem cells within them can duplicate into almost anything in the body, which benefits terminally ill people who have a bodily defect or if something in someone's body needs to be repaired
as long as the embryo is healthy the stem cells can be used to do this
however there is still alot of controversy surrounding this because some people (and on some level i agree) believe that embro's are still humans and therefore should be protected under the human rights legislation, and thereforeshould not be experimented on
hope this helped!!

What is the major issue involving the harvesting of embryonic stem cells?
The major issue involving the harvesting of embryonic stem cells is that the embryonic stem cells can cause the destruction of an embryo.
How are adult stem cells better then embryonic stem cells?
They are not better, embryonic stem cells can become more types then adult.
How are adult body cells different from embryonic stem cells?
adult body cells have a function where as embryonic stem cells have no set function as of that stage. now there are some adult stem cells and those have little to no difference than embryonic stem cells
What are the techniques to produce embryonic stem cells and embryonic germ cells?
Sacrifice a embryo at the blastocoel stage. Obtain the stem cells from the blastomere.
Why do researchers prefer to use embryonic stem cell research instead of adult stem cells?
embryonic stem cells can differentiate into more types of cells
When was Dead Embryonic Cells created?
Dead Embryonic Cells was created in 1991.

What cells types are specifically responsible for cell mediated immunity?
The b cells are specifically responsible for cell mediated immunity.

Is using embryonic stem cells for research legally considered murder?
Using embryonic stem cells for research is not murder.
How do embryonic cells acquire their fate?
the fate of embryonic cells is in the hands of genes. they are responsible for the embryonic cells differentiation. if clitoris develops, penis is formed and male is produced. if clitoris is suppressed, vagina is formed and female is produced.
