Abstract

The article reports on developments related to stem cells. The key properties of a stem cell and its potential to replace dead or damaged cells in diseased tissue were investigated. The different types of stem cells, their properties, how they were discovered, and their potential use for repair and regeneration were discussed. Explanations about the embryonic stem cells, where it was derived, what are its features, and its importance in biomedical research as experiments with mice show. Recent researches on embryonic stem cells and a discussion about stem cell differentiation and nuclear transfer proved the importance of this science for medical research.
