Stem cells are special human cells that have the ability to develop into many different cell types, from muscle cells to brain cells. In some cases, they also have the ability to repair damaged tissues.
There are several types of stem cells that can be used for different purposes:
-Embryonic stem cells come from human embryos that are three to five days old. They are harvested during a process called in-vitro fertilization.
-Adult stem cells have a misleading name because they are also found in infants and children. These stem cells come from developed organs and tissues in the body.
-Cord blood stem cells are harvested from the umbilical cord after childbirth. They can be frozen in cell banks for use in the future.
