  • Stem cells: What they are and what they do
    Adult stem cells. These stem cells are found in small numbers in most adult tissues, such as bone marrow or fat. Compared with embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells have a more limited ability to give rise to various cells of the body. Adult cells altered to have properties of embryonic stem cells.

  • Adult stem cell
    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 (from Greek σωματικóς, meaning of the body), they can be found in juvenile, adult animals, and humans, unlike embryonic stem ...

  • Stem Cell Basics | STEM Cell Information
    Researchers study many different types of stem cells. There are several main categories: the “pluripotent” stem cells (embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells) and nonembryonic or somatic stem cells (commonly called “adult” stem cells).

  • Adult Stem Cell
    Unlike ESCs, adult stem cells are multipotent progenitor cells possessing limited differentiation potential or are unipotent, capable of generating only a single specific cell type. Adult stem cells are located in specialized vascular microenvironments, referred to as the stem cell niche.
