<p><em>"Genetically modified camels could be the key to cheaper drugs as researchers in Dubai try to lace their milk with pharmaceutical proteins.</em></p>
<p><em>According to Nisar Wani, head of the Reproductive Biology Laboratory at Dubai's Camel Reproduction Centre in the United Arab Emirates, the project hopes to reduce the price of drugs such as insulin and clotting factors for treating haemophilia in the Middle East and North Africa.</em></p>
<p><em>"We are establishing camel cells modified with exogenous [foreign] DNA, for use in producing transgenic cloned animals, or GM camels," reported Wani. "Hopefully we will transfer camel transgenic embryos to surrogate mothers for the first time later this year."</em></p>
