    undifferentiated cells in adults that regenerate specific tissues

    Adult stem cells, also known as somatic stem cells, are undifferentiated cells found throughout the body after development. They have the ability to self-renew and differentiate into various specialized cell types of the tissue or organ they reside in, playing a crucial role in tissue repair and regeneration. Unlike embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells are limited in their differentiation potential but are less likely to cause ethical concerns or immune rejection when used in therapies.
