Area of Science:

  • Stem cell biology
  • Regenerative medicine
  • Cell therapy

Context:

  • Stem cells are crucial for cell therapy and tissue repair.
  • Embryonic stem cells (ESCs), embryonic germ cells (EGCs), and embryonic carcinoma cells (ECCs) possess unique biological properties.
  • Adult stem cells, including hematopoietic stem cells and those in various tissues, are vital for tissue maintenance.

Purpose:

  • To review the biological properties of embryonic stem cells (ESCs, EGs, ECs).
  • To explore human embryonic stem cell applications and differentiation signals.
  • To present information on adult stem cells, their identification, transdifferentiation, plasticity, and clinical applications.

Summary:

  • This review details the biological characteristics of embryonic stem cells (ESCs, EGs, ECs) and their potential applications in human therapies.
