Study Notes

Cell Types and Development

There are many cell types, including embryonic cells
Embryonic cells can give rise to multiple cell types
Fibroblast cells are one type of cell that can be used in induced pluripotent stem cell (IPSC) technology
Plasma is also involved in this process
IPSCs are a type of stem cell that can be generated from adult cells, such as fibroblasts
