Magic of Stem cells…
Stem cells are the “magic” of
Stem cells are the “magic” of biology. They are the cells that give rise to all other cells in the body. They have the ability to self-renew, meaning that they can divide into new stem cells, or they can differentiate into specialized cells, such as blood cells, muscle cells, or nerve cells.
This ability to self-renew and differentiate is what makes stem cells so powerful. They have the potential to be used to repair damaged tissues or organs, or to create new tissues or organs altogether.
There are two main types of stem cells: embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Embryonic stem cells are derived from embryos, while adult stem cells are found in adult tissues and organs.
