Abstract
Methods for producing stem cell banks, preferably human, which optionally may be transgenic, e.g., comprised of homozygous MHC allele cell lines are provided. These cells are produced preferably from parthenogenic, IVF, or same-species or cross-species nuclear transfer embryos or by dedifferentiation of somatic cells by cytoplasm transfer. Methods for using these stem cell banks for producing stem and differentiated cells for therapy, especially acute therapies, and for screening for drugs for disease treatment are also provided.
