$\bf\pink{therapeutic cloning :}$

✦ Therapeutic cloning involves creating a cloned embryo for the sole purpose of producing embryonic stem cells with the same DNA as the donor cell. These stem cells can be used in experiments aimed at understanding disease and developing new treatments for disease.1

$\sf{\underline{\overline{\purple{ about \: of \: therapeutic cloning :}}}}$

✦ purpose :

While the goal of reproductive cloning is the creation of a person, the purpose of therapeutic cloning is to generate and direct the differentiation of patient-specific cell lines isolated from an embryo not intended for transfer in utero.

✦ process :

In therapeutic cloning, the nucleus of a cell, typically a skin cell, is inserted into a fertilized egg whose nucleus has been removed. ... Scientists then extract stem cells from the blastocyst and use them to grow cells that are a perfect genetic match for the patient

✦ example :

Therapeutic cloning works – in mice, at least. An international team has restored mice with a condition similar to Parkinson's disease back to health, using neurons grown in the lab that were made from their own cloned skin cells
