In cell biology, precursor cells—also called blast cells—are partially differentiated, or intermediate, and are sometimes referred to as progenitor cells. A precursor cell is a stem cell with the capacity to differentiate into only one cell type, meaning they are unipotent stem cells .
C2C12 myotubes under light microscope, 10x magnification. C2C12 is an immortalized mouse myoblast cell line.The C2C12 cell line is a subclone of myoblasts that were originally obtained by Yaffe and Saxel at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel in 1977. [1]
Polycarbonate is commonly used in eye protection, as well as in other projectile-resistant viewing and lighting applications that would normally indicate the use of glass, but require much higher impact-resistance. Polycarbonate lenses also protect the eye from UV light.
Both cells later produce one or two neural cells (N). A progenitor cell is a biological cell that can differentiate into a specific cell type. Stem cells and progenitor cells have this ability in common. However, stem cells are less specified than progenitor cells. Progenitor cells can only differentiate into their "target" cell type. [1]
The megakaryoblast is derived from colony forming units (CFU-Meg) of hematopoietic stem cells found in red bone marrow. There are biomarkers found on the surface of hemopoietic stem cells that are used as identifiers for megakaryoblasts and other precursor cells. Two of the committed biomarkers are CD34-and CD150+.

Under the pre-cell theory (Kandler 1994ff) [6] [7] [8], based on the Iron-Sulfur world hypothesis (metabolism-first scenario), [9] primordial metabolism led to the early diversification of life through the evolution of a multiphenotypical population of pre-cells, defined by Kandler as metabolizing, replicating loose entities exhibiting many of ...
Two bilateral pigment precursor cells form an equivalence group that eventually interacts to seal mutually exclusive fates (otolith and ocellus). Shown is a timeline of the developing Halocythia roretzi embryo (anterior is to the left). Pigment precursor cells (gray circles) remain equivalent until they align after neurulation.
English: Kandler's pre-cell theory (Kandler 1998, Figure 2.3, p.22) - Scheme of cellularisation (modified after Kandler 1994, p.155)ː Scenario of the early evolution and diversification of life through the development of a multiphenotypical population of pre-cells from which the founder groups (A, B, C) and then, from them, the precursor cells (proto-cells) of the three domains of life (Woese ...
