Adult stem cells are undifferentiated cells, found throughout the body after development that multiply by cell division to replenish dying cells and regenerate damaged tissues. Also known as somatic stem cells, they can be found in juvenile as well as adult animals and human bodies.

What about the application of human adult stem cells?
Adult stem cells are undifferentiated cells, found throughout the body after development that multiply by cell division to replenish dying cells and regenerate damaged tissues. Also known as somatic stem cells, they can be found in juvenile as well as adult animals and human bodies. Creative Bioarray provides adult stem cells from various tissue/organs of human, mouse and rat.

Are Adult stem cells as useful as Embrionic stem cells?
Yes and No. The only big difference is the procedures used in harvesting adult stem cells is considered legal and safe. There's no need to kill a human embryo. Adult stem cells can be harvested from cord blood or human bone marrow. But embryonic stem cells are able to make more kinds of cells than adult stem cells.
Where at in the human body are stem cells?
There are adult stem cells and there are embryonic stem cells. Adult stem cells are found in many body tissues such as in the brain, neural stem cells, and in bone marrow. Also the embryonic stem cells, as you can tell by the name, are from the embryo which starts to develop into more recognizable specialized stem cells within three to four weeks after fertilization.
Are fetal cells only source of stem cells?
There are 2 type of stem cells * embryonic stem cells * and adult stem cells fetal stem cells are grouped into the adult stem cell category
What do embryonic stem cells have over adult stem cells in medical research?
Human embryonic and adult stem cells each have advantages and disadvantages regarding potential use for cell-based regenerative therapies. ... Adult stem cells are thought to be limited to differentiating into different cell types of their tissue of origin. Embryonic stem cells can be grown relatively easily in culture.
What is the primary role of the undifferentiated cells?
Adult stem cells
What are adult stem cells and what could you use them for?
Stem cells are those which could make up new tissues. Eg. bone marrow stem cells make up blood organelles. Adult stem cells could be used to make tissue that could then be transplanted into human beings.
How are adult stem cells better then embryonic stem cells?
They are not better, embryonic stem cells can become more types then adult.
What advantages do embryonic stem cell have over adult stem cells in medical research?
Human embryonic and adult stem cells each have advantages and disadvantages regarding potential use for cell-based regenerative therapies. ... Adult stem cells are thought to be limited to differentiating into different cell types of their tissue of origin. Embryonic stem cells can be grown relatively easily in culture.
Why not just study adult stem cells?
adult stem cells are to big to study.
How do stem cells maintain their populations within tissues that consist of mostly differentiated cells?
Within the human body, stem cell niches maintain adult stem cells in a quiescent (inactive) state.
