  2. HeLa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HeLa

    HeLa (/ ˈ h iː l ɑː /) is an immortalized cell line used in scientific research. It is the oldest human cell line and one of the most commonly used. [1] [2] HeLa cells are durable and prolific, allowing for extensive applications in scientific study.

  3. Human–animal hybrid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human–animal_hybrid

    An artist's impression of a humanzee, or chimpanzee-human hybrid. A human–animal hybrid and animal–human hybrid is an organism that incorporates elements from both humans and non-human animals. Technically, in a human–animal hybrid, each cell has both human and non-human genetic material.

  4. Humanzee - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humanzee

    The humanzee (sometimes chuman, manpanzee or chumanzee) is a hypothetical hybrid of chimpanzee and human, thus a form of human–animal hybrid.Serious attempts to create such a hybrid were made by Soviet biologist Ilya Ivanovich Ivanov in the 1920s, [1] and possibly by researchers in China in the 1960s, though neither succeeded.

  5. Hybrid cell line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_cell_line

    Tumor hybrid cells: fusion of tumor cells with normal bodily cells. [7] [8] These tend to take on new properties which make them more difficult to treat. [9] Human-mouse hybrid cells, i.e. HeLa/mouse hybrid. [10] These can be used as a diagnostic tool for conditions such as aneuploidy, but this is a dated technique that is rarely applied ...

  6. Human chimera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_chimera

    A human chimera is a human with a subset of cells with a distinct genotype than other cells, that is, having genetic chimerism.In contrast, an individual where each cell contains genetic material from a human and an animal is called a human–animal hybrid, while an organism that contains a mixture of human and non-human cells would be a human-animal chimera.

  7. Henrietta Lacks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henrietta_Lacks

    Henrietta Lacks (born Loretta Pleasant; August 1, 1920 – October 4, 1951) [2] was an African-American woman [5] whose cancer cells are the source of the HeLa cell line, the first immortalized human cell line [B] and one of the most important cell lines in medical research.

  8. List of genetic hybrids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_genetic_hybrids

    This is a list of genetic hybrids which is limited to well documented cases of animals of differing species able to create hybrid offspring which may or may not be infertile. Hybrids should not be confused with genetic chimeras , such as that between sheep and goat known as the geep .

  9. Interbreeding between archaic and modern humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interbreeding_between...

    The modern human Oase 2 skull (cast depicted), found in Peştera cu Oase, displays archaic traits due to possible hybridization with Neanderthals. [57] The early modern human Oase 1 mandible from Peștera cu Oase (Romania) of 34,000–36,000 14 C years BP presents a mosaic of modern, archaic, and possible Neanderthal features. [58]
