|
Stem cells in adult blood are:
|
|
totipotent
|
|
|
multipotent
|
|
|
pluripotent
|
|
|
unipotent
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Multipotent cells can develop into more than one cell type, but are more limited than pluripotent cells; adult stem cells and cord blood stem cells are considered multipotent.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are multipotent precursors that have self-renewal capacity and the ability to regenerate all of the different cell types that comprise the blood-forming system (Bonnet, 2002; McCulloch and Till, 2005).
Detailed explanation-3: -Types of Stem Cells. Multipotent Stem Cells. – Neural Stem Cells (NSCs) – Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) – Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSCs)
