    The stem cells themselves are self-repairing and self replicating. Quoting Wikipedia:

    Due to the self-renewal capacity of stem cells, a stem cell line can be cultured in vitro indefinitely.

    Currently all embryonic stem cell research and therapies in the US are conducted using only 486 cultures.
