GlossaryEmbryonic Stem Cells (ESCs)

pluripotent cells from early embryos that can become any cell

Embryonic Stem Cells (ESCs) are pluripotent cells derived from the early-stage embryo, specifically the blastocyst, which is about 4-5 days post-fertilization. These cells have the unique ability to differentiate into any cell type in the body, making them invaluable for research in developmental biology, regenerative medicine, and potential therapeutic applications.
