The use of fetal tissue in vaccine development is the practice of researching, developing, and producing vaccines through growing viruses in cultured (laboratory-grown) cells that were originally derived from human fetal tissue. [ 1] Since the cell strains in use originate from abortions, [ 2] there has been opposition to the practice and the ...
MRC-5 ( Medical Research Council cell strain 5) is a diploid cell culture line composed of fibroblasts, originally developed from the lung tissue of a 14-week-old aborted Caucasian male fetus. [ 1][ 2] The cell line was isolated by J.P. Jacobs and colleagues in September 1966 from the seventh population doubling of the original strain, and MRC ...
Planned Parenthood 2015 undercover videos controversy. In 2015, an anti-abortion organization named the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) released several videos that had been secretly recorded.

Photos of what pregnancy tissue from early abortions at 5 to 9 weeks actually looks like have gone viral.. The images, which were originally shared by MYA Network — a network of physicians who ...
WI-38 cells (Left: in high density. Right: in low density) WI-38 is a diploid human cell line composed of fibroblasts derived from lung tissue of a 3-month-gestation female fetus. [ 1][ 2] The fetus came from the elective abortion of a Swedish woman in 1963. The cell line was isolated by Leonard Hayflick the same year, [ 3][ 4] and has been ...
Fetus in fetu (or foetus in foetu) is a rare developmental abnormality in which a mass of tissue resembling a fetus forms inside the body of its twin. An early example of the phenomenon was described in 1808 by George William Young. [ 1] There are two hypotheses for the origin of a "fetus in fetu". One hypothesis is that the mass begins as a ...
Intact dilation and extraction ( D&X, IDX, or intact D&E) is a surgical procedure that terminates and removes an intact fetus from the uterus. The procedure is used both after miscarriages and for abortions in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy . In United States federal law, it is known as a partial-birth abortion. [ 1][ 2]
e. Human embryonic development or human embryogenesis is the development and formation of the human embryo. It is characterised by the processes of cell division and cellular differentiation of the embryo that occurs during the early stages of development. In biological terms, the development of the human body entails growth from a one-celled ...
