Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Main Article Content
Abstract
Stem cells are a special type of cell, which can be found in almost all types of tissue and through the entire life span of multicellular organisms. Their main function is to provide tissue development, homeostasis and to repair tissue damage. Stem cells are characterised as cells that have the capacity to self renew, multipotency/pluriopotency, clonality, and are divided into embry- onic stem cells and adult stem cells.
