cells that differentiate into other In mammals there two broad types of stem cells
Biological can ,

embryonic stem cells which isolated from the
types of cells and can divide to produce more of ,
a re inner

type of stem cells (self renewal) cell mass of blastocyst s ,
and adult stem cells




In vivo loss of potency
2nd lineage decision :



ecto ,
endo and mesoderm




to -4 potent differentiation placenta and organism pluripotent
1




to -4potent : trophoblast and inner cell mass not most interesting ; can also form extraembryonic tissue


pluripotent : capable of differentiation into all three germlayers

multipotent :
progenitor cells (hennapoetic cell fate decisions are epi genomic based


run , potent : differentiate into one cell only because all cells contain the same DNA




Types of pluripotent cells

-


Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) : cells derived from embryo pluripotency is transient in the embryo ,




-


Epiblast stem cells (EP1 5CS) : cells derived from epiblast in culture phenomenon you fix them

-

Embryonot carcinoma cells €6s) : cells from terato carcinoma to stop differentiating
-


Embryonic Germ cells (EG Cs ) : cells derived from primordial germ cells

-
Induced pluripotent stem cell (PSG) : cell made from somatic cell
