  2. Cellular differentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_differentiation

    Cellular differentiation is the process in which a stem cell changes from one type to a differentiated one. [2][3] Usually, the cell changes to a more specialized type. Differentiation happens multiple times during the development of a multicellular organism as it changes from a simple zygote to a complex system of tissues and cell types.

  3. Human embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_embryonic_development

    Human embryonic development or human embryogenesis is the development and formation of the human embryo. It is characterised by the processes of cell division and cellular differentiation of the embryo that occurs during the early stages of development. In biological terms, the development of the human body entails growth from a one-celled ...

  4. Gametogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gametogenesis

    Gonochorism. Hermaphrodite. v. t. e. Gametogenesis is a biological process by which diploid or haploid precursor cells undergo cell division and differentiation to form mature haploid gametes. Depending on the biological life cycle of the organism, gametogenesis occurs by meiotic division of diploid gametocytes into various gametes, or by mitosis.

  5. Development of the human body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_the_human_body

    Human growthand development. Development of the human body is the process of growth to maturity. The process begins with fertilization, where an egg released from the ovary of a female is penetrated by a sperm cell from a male. The resulting zygote develops through mitosis and cell differentiation, and the resulting embryo then implants in the ...

  6. Development of the nervous system in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_the_nervous...

    t. e. The development of the nervous system in humans, or neural development, or neurodevelopment involves the studies of embryology, developmental biology, and neuroscience. These describe the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which the complex nervous system forms in humans, develops during prenatal development, and continues to develop ...

  7. List of human cell types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_cell_types

    An extensive listing of human cell types was published by Vickaryous and Hall in 2006, collecting 411 different types of human cells (with 145 types of neuron among those). [11] The Human Cell Atlas project, which started in 2016, had as one of its goals to "catalog all cell types (for example, immune cells or brain cells) and sub-types in the ...

  8. Epigenetics in stem-cell differentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epigenetics_in_stem-cell...

    Embryonic stem cells were also analyzed morphologically to observe the formation of embryoid body formation as one of the measures of cell differentiation. The 10nM TSA treated cells failed to form the embryoid body by Day-6 as observed in the control cell line. This implies that the ES cells treated with TSA lacked the deacetylation on Day-1 ...

  9. Organogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organogenesis

    Organogenesis. Organogenesis is the phase of embryonic development that starts at the end of gastrulation and continues until birth. During organogenesis, the three germ layers formed from gastrulation (the ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm) form the internal organs of the organism. [1]
