What else can I help you with?
What are unspecialized human cells called?
Unspecialized human cells are typically referred to as stem cells. These cells have the potential to develop into different types of cells in the body.
Are stem cells human?
Yes, some stem cells do come from humans. The stem cells are taken from embryos. Animals also have stem cells used in research.
Are stem cells artificial cells?
No. Stem cells occur naturally in the human body. However we are trying to clone stem cells to aid in there research.
How is human tissue and stem cell similar?
Tissue is an ensemble of cells that make up the organs in the body. Stem cells are cells that can be transformed into any of the specialized cells that can be found in the tissues of the human body.
Which type of stem cell are human blood stem cells?
multiponent
What are other sources of stem cells besides human embryos?
Besides human embryos, stem cells can be sourced from adult tissues, such as bone marrow and adipose (fat) tissue, where they are known as adult or somatic stem cells. Additionally, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be created by reprogramming adult cells, such as skin or blood cells, to an embryonic-like state. Other sources include umbilical cord blood and placental tissues, both of which contain hematopoietic stem cells. These alternative sources provide valuable options for research and therapeutic applications without the ethical concerns associated with embryonic stem cells.
What kind of stem cells can develop into any kind of cells in the human body?
Cells up to 8 cell stage in human embryo can develop in any kind of cell in body. Inner cell mass in blastocyst can develop into any kind of cell in human body.
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.
What sources of stem cells presents the greatest ethical problems or controversies?
Embryonic stem cells present the greatest ethical problems as they are obtained from embryos, which leads to debates about the moral status of the embryo and concerns about potential destruction of human life. Additionally, induced pluripotent stem cells, which are created by reprogramming adult cells, also raise ethical considerations due to issues related to genetic manipulation and informed consent.
Are embryonic stem cells a safe source for the generation of human gametes in vitro?
Embryonic stem cells have proved to be a safe source for the generation of human gametes in vitro.
How does cord stem cells helps people?
Cord stem cells are exactly like normal stem cells, but they do come from an aborted fetus like most stem cells. Just like normal stem cells, they can be used to create any other cell needed in the human body.
What is the specific 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.
