With rennet, they argue that it’s davar chadash. Cells do not become davar chadash. You’d need to begin with cells from a cow that has been slaughtered properly, and whether or not the ensuing product is considered meat or not is questionable, since there is no bitul be shishim with a davar ha ma’amid.
