EMERGENCE OF STEM CELLS. THE DEVELOPMENT OF MULTICELLULARITY AND ITS QUANTITATIVE CHARACTERISTICS
Abstract:
A new approach to the description of the stem cells emergence in the development of multicellular organisms has been proposed based on a formalized description of the formation of elementary units of multicellularity — «gistions» by purchasing and implementing potentials for implementation of the procedure of division of functions between the cells. The system of gistions is shown in the form of the periodic table, which allows to predict the structure of the development and to measure it. The laws of conservation potentialities in gistions were suggested, explaining the origin of the stem cells. For the quantitative characteristics of development the experimentally determined parameters were described. Using it one can not only find a common pool of potentials, but also divide them into separate species and, thus, to talk about the structure of the pool and characterize changes in its development.
