  2. Embryonic stem cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryonic_stem_cell

    Embryonic stem cells is one of the sources that are being considered for the use of tissue engineering. [19] The use of human embryonic stem cells have opened many new possibilities for tissue engineering, however, there are many hurdles that must be made before human embryonic stem cell can even be utilized.

  3. Knockout mouse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knockout_mouse

    The embryonic stem cells that incorporated the knocked-out gene are isolated from the unaltered cells using the marker gene from step 1. For example, the unaltered cells can be killed using a toxic agent to which the altered cells are resistant. The knocked-out embryonic stem cells from step 4 are inserted into a mouse blastocyst. For this ...

  4. Stem cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem_cell

    Some stem cells form tumors after transplantation; [106] pluripotency is linked to tumor formation especially in embryonic stem cells, fetal proper stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells. Fetal proper stem cells form tumors despite multipotency. [107] Ethical concerns are also raised about the practice of using or researching embryonic stem ...

  5. Cloning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloning

    The goal is not to create cloned human beings (called "reproductive cloning"), but rather to harvest stem cells that can be used to study human development and to potentially treat disease. While a clonal human blastocyst has been created, stem cell lines are yet to be isolated from a clonal source. [14]

  7. Embryoid body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryoid_body

    Embryoid bodies (EBs) are three-dimensional aggregates formed by pluripotent stem cells. These include embryonic stem cells (ESC) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) EBs are differentiation of human embryonic stem cells into embryoid bodies comprising the three embryonic germ layers. They mimic the characteristics seen in early-stage embryos.

  8. Embryomics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryomics

    The cells of the inner cell mass (embryoblast), which are known as human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), will further differentiate to form four structures: the amnion, the yolk sac, the allantois, and the embryo itself. Human embryonic stem cells are pluripotent, that is, they can differentiate into any of the cell types present in the adult ...

  9. Somatic cell nuclear transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somatic_cell_nuclear_transfer

    Embryonic stem cells are undifferentiated cells of an embryo. These cells are deemed to have a pluripotent potential because they have the ability to give rise to all of the tissues found in an adult organism. This ability allows stem cells to create any cell type, which could then be transplanted to replace damaged or destroyed cells.
