英下院通過“三親育子”法案

The technique of creating a baby from three persons uses a modified version of IVF to combine the DNA of the two parents with the healthy mitochondria of a donor woman.

所謂“三親育子”技術，是利用改良的人工受孕手段，將來自父母的基因與一位女性捐獻者的健康線粒體結合在一起。

The UK is set to become the first country to introduce laws to allow the creation of babies from three people. Estimates suggest 150 three-person babies could be born each year.

據(jù)悉，英國將成為首個在法律上允許擁有三名父母的嬰兒出生的國家。據(jù)估計，每年將有150名“三親嬰兒”出生。

A further vote is required in the House of Lords. If everything goes ahead then the first such baby could be born next year.

該草案還將在上議院進行表決。如果一切順利，首個“三親嬰兒”有望在明年誕生
