A complete set of their genes, and retain the ability to express those genes under certain circumstances.
Most cells in the body are capable of undergoing mitosis, with exceptions such as mature red blood cells and certain brain cells that are terminally differentiated and do not divide. Skin cells, gut cells, and immune cells are examples of cells that regularly undergo mitosis for growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues.
Cardiac muscle cells cannot regenerate, meaning that they have limited ability to repair and replace damaged muscle tissue. This is because most cardiac muscle cells are terminally differentiated and do not undergo cell division.
Most differentiated cells in the human body tend to rarely undergo mitosis, including nerve cells (neurons) and muscle cells (myocytes). These cells have exited the cell cycle and are in a specialized state, focusing on carrying out their specific functions.
Most adult human cells that do not reproduce themselves by mitosis are nerve cells, or neurons. This is because neurons are terminally differentiated cells and typically do not undergo cell division in adults.
False
Terminally differentiated cells are cells that have lost the ability to divide. Examples of these cells in the human body include skeletal muscle cells, cardiac muscle cells, and neurons.
Undifferentiated mesenchymal cell
Well defined between tumor and surrounding tissue. Most times when the words well differentiated is used in regards to cancer it means that under microscopic examination by a pathologist the cancer cells appear to be like normal cells. This helps in grading the cancer, not staging. A well differentiated cancer is of a low grade and, at least in my instance, is not aggressive.
Yes, some cells are terminally differentiated and are no longer capable of dividing. These include mature nerve cells and muscle cells. However, most cells in the body, such as skin cells and blood cells, are capable of division.
Cells that rapidly divide are most sensitive to ionizing radiation damage, including stem cells, progenitor cells, and cells of the gastrointestinal tract, bone marrow, and skin. These cells have higher metabolic activity and are less able to repair damaged DNA compared to more differentiated cells.

Cell division would be most common among cells in the basal layer of the epidermis, where stem cells are actively dividing to produce new cells. This layer is responsible for generating new skin cells that migrate upwards to replace those that are shed from the surface. In contrast, the outer layers of the skin consist of more differentiated and non-dividing cells.
Cardiac muscle cells cannot regenerate, meaning that they have limited ability to repair and replace damaged muscle tissue. This is because most cardiac muscle cells are terminally differentiated and do not undergo cell division.
Most differentiated cells in the human body tend to rarely undergo mitosis, including nerve cells (neurons) and muscle cells (myocytes). These cells have exited the cell cycle and are in a specialized state, focusing on carrying out their specific functions.
According to the laws of Bergonie and Tribondeau, the most radiosensitive cells are those that are highly mitotic (rapidly dividing), undifferentiated, and have a long lifespan. This includes cells such as stem cells, germ cells, and certain types of epithelial cells. In contrast, mature and differentiated cells, which are less proliferative, tend to be more radioresistant. This principle is crucial in understanding the effects of radiation on different tissues in the body.
Most macrophages only live a few days wheras cell lines live longer.
Most adult human cells that do not reproduce themselves by mitosis are nerve cells, or neurons. This is because neurons are terminally differentiated cells and typically do not undergo cell division in adults.
