If cells are removed from the embryo they will differentiate into any cell type. These are called embryonic stem cells. Some stem cells remain in the bodies of adults as adult stem cells.
Mitosis is a type of cell division which ensures that, when a cell divides, each new cell produced has the same genetic information. Each human body cell contains 46 chromosomes. These can be ...
Resolving how cell of origin affects pathways that govern progression of precancerous lesions will ultimately allow us to develop methods to detect PDAC early, which is arguably the most important ...
A stem-cell derived human embryo model showing blue cells (embryo), yellow cells (yolk sac) and pink cells (placenta). Scientists have grown an entity that closely resembles an early human embryo ...
