[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The dog named Long Long has become China's first completely self-bred somatic-cell cloned dog, and the world's first gene-edited cloned [url=http://www.enread.com/news/sciandtech/107185.html]dog[/url]. Somatic cells are any cell of a living organism other than the reproductive cells.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"This is a breakthrough, marking China as only the second country in the world to independently master dog-somatic clone technology, after South Korea," says Lai Liangxue, a researcher of Guangzhou institute of biological medicine and health with the Chinese academy of sciences.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Speaking to Science and Technology Daily, he explained that dogs had long been considered as one of the most difficult animals to be cloned, as the quality of their ovary cells are relatively poor, and the process of cloning embryo preparation is challenging.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]In addition, dogs don’t come on heat often, which makes it's hard to synchronize the cloned [url=http://www.enread.com/news/sciandtech/107185.html]embryos[/url] with the reproductive cycle of a surrogate mother. [/size][/font]
