2. Adult stem cell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adult_stem_cell

   A stem cell possesses two properties: . Self-renewal is the ability to go through numerous cycles of cell division while still maintaining its undifferentiated state. Stem cells can replicate several times and can result in the formation of two stem cells, one stem cell more differentiated than the other, or two differentiated cells.

3. Adult neurogenesis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adult_neurogenesis

   Adult neurogenesis is the process in which neurons are generated from neural stem cells in the adult. This process differs from prenatal neurogenesis . In most mammals, new neurons are born throughout adulthood in two regions of the brain: [ 3 ]

4. Induced pluripotent stem cell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induced_pluripotent_stem_cell

   Induced pluripotent stem cells were first generated by Shinya Yamanaka and Kazutoshi Takahashi at Kyoto University, Japan, in 2006. [1] They hypothesized that genes important to embryonic stem cell (ESC) function might be able to induce an embryonic state in adult cells.

5. Neurogenesis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurogenesis

   In the adult SVZ, the primary neural stem cells are SVZ astrocytes rather than RGCs. Most of these adult neural stem cells lie dormant in the adult, but in response to certain signals, these dormant cells, or B cells, go through a series of stages, first producing proliferating cells, or C cells.

6. Neural stem cell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_stem_cell

   Neural stem cells differentiating to astrocytes (green) and sites of growth hormone receptor shown in red. There are two basic types of stem cell: adult stem cells, which are limited in their ability to differentiate, and embryonic stem cells (ESCs), which are pluripotent and have the capability of differentiating into any cell type.

7. Stem-cell therapy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem-cell_therapy

   There is other stem cell research that does not involve the destruction of a human embryo, and such research involves adult stem cells, amniotic stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells. In January 2009, the US Food and Drug Administration gave clearance to Geron Corporation for the first clinical trial of an embryonic stem-cell-based ...
