Stem Cell HistoryStem Cell History
Stem Cell – Definition
A cell that has the ability to
continuously divide and differentiate
(develop) into various other kind(s)
of cells/tissues
Stages of Embryogenesis
blastocyst Blastocyst inner mass cells
8-cell stagecleavage
Blastocyst Diagram
Embryonic Stem Cells (ESC): received from:
Embryos created in vitro fertilization
Aborted embryos
Adult Stem Cells (ASC): can be received from:
Limited tissues (bone marrow, muscle, brain)
 Discrete populations of adult stem cells generate replacements for
cells that are lost through normal wear and tear, injury or disease.
• IPSC’s reprogrammed cells
This cell
Can form the
Embryo and placenta
This cell
Can just form the
embryo
Fully mature
• Skin
• Fat Cells
• Bone marrow
• Brain
• Many other organs
& tissues
Adult Stem Cells
An undifferentiated cells found
among specialized or differentiated
cells in a tissue or organ after birth
Bone Marrow
Found in spongy bone where blood cells form
Used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with
healthy bone marrow stem cells.
treat patients diagnosed with leukemia, aplastic anemia,
and lymphomas
Need a greater histological immunocompatibility
Umbilical cord stem cells
Also Known as Wharton’s Jelly
Adult stem cells of infant origin
Less invasive than bone marrow
Greater compatibility
Less expensive
Factors known to affect stem cells
Low stress levels
Regular exercise
Enriching experiences
Learning new information
Healthy diets: rich in antioxidants
Avoid excessive drinking

“I have thought a lot about stem cells , and I am sure that
when the historians will look back at the 20th
century…the
greatest scientific achievement will not be from the field of
space technology or computer technology but will be from the
tissue engineering and genetic medicine.”

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Stem cells are different from other cells of the body in that they have the ability to differentiate into other cell/tissue types. This ability allows them to replace cells that have died. With this ability, they have been used to replace defective cells/tissues in patients who have certain diseases or defects.
  2. The early stages of embryogenesis are the point at which embryonic stem cell lines are derived. The fertilized egg (day 1) undergoes cell division to form a 2-cell embryo, followed by 4-cell, etc. until a ball of cells is formed by the fourth day. The ball becomes hollow, forming the blastocyst. This is the stage at which pluripotent embryonic stem cell lines are generated. Following the blastocyst stage, the tissues of the embryo start to form and the cells become multipotent.
  3. CLICK! This diagram will eventually show the entire range of development, from fertilized egg to mature cell types in the body. Each cell in the 8-cell embryo, here in red, can generate every cell in the embryo as well as the placenta and extra-embryonic tissues. These cells are called CLICK! TOTIPOTENT stem cells. Why are they called totipotent? (wait for answers) Because one red cell can potentially make all necessary tissues for development. CLICK! During In Vitro Fertilization, can parents choose whether their baby is going to be a boy or a girl? (wait) Yes, there is a widely-practiced procedure called pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, where one cell is removed from the 8-cell embryo and its DNA is examined. What might you look for when trying to identify the embryo’s sex? (wait) If there’s an X and Y chromosome it’s a boy and if there are two X’s it’s a girl. The parents can decide whether to implant it. Also parents with a genetic disease might want to see if their baby has any identifiable genetic disorders and decide whether to implant based on this information. Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis doesn’t destroy the embryo. Scientists are attempting to adapt this pre-implantation genetic diagnosis procedure and use it to create a stem cell line from one single TOTIPOTENT cell, without destroying the embryo. The embryonic stem cells inside the blastocyst, here in purple, can generate every cell in the body except placenta and extra-embryonic tissues. These are called CLICK! PLURIPOTENT stem cells…why? (wait for answers) Because they can differentiate into all the 200+ cell types in the body, but they do not form the placenta. CLICK! Pluripotent stem cells can be isolated and grown in culture, or left to develop into more specialized cells in the body. CLICK! Adult stem cells or tissue-specific stem cells have restricted lineages. Adult stem cells show up when the three distinct layers form in the 14-day-old embryo, and are present in the fetus, baby, child, and so forth. Adult just means they’ve gone further down their lineage pathway than the initial stem cells in the embryo. They are called CLICK! MULTIPOTENT stem cells because they will only become mature cells from the tissue in which they reside. Adult stem cells are present throughout your life and replace fully mature CLICK!, yet damaged and dying cells. So to review (if time): TOTIPOTENT stem cells come from embryos that are less than 3 days old. These cells can make the TOTAL human being because they can form the placenta and all other tissues. PLURIPOTENT stem cells come from embryos that are 5-14 days old. Embryos and fetuses that are older than 14 days DO NOT contain pluripotent cells. These cells can form every cell type in the body but not the placenta. MULTIPOTENT stem cells are also called adult stem cells and these appear in the 14 day old embryo and beyond. At this point these stem cells will continue down certain lineages and CANNOT naturally turn back into pluripotent cells or switch lineages.
  4. 1990s that scientists agreed that the adult brain does contain stem cells that are able to generate the brain's three major cell types—astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, which are non-neuronal cells, and neurons, or nerve cells. A. Where are adult stem cells found, and what do they normally do? Adult stem cells have been identified in many organs and tissues, including brain, bone marrow, peripheral blood, blood vessels, skeletal muscle, skin, teeth, heart, gut, liver, ovarian epithelium, and testis. They are thought to reside in a specific area of each tissue (called a "stem cell niche"). In many tissues, current evidence suggests that some types of stem cells are pericytes, cells that compose the outermost layer of small blood vessels. Stem cells may remain quiescent (non-dividing) for long periods of time until they are activated by a normal need for more cells to maintain tissues, or by disease or tissue injury. Typically, there is a very small number of stem cells in each tissue, and once removed from the body, their capacity to divide is limited, making generation of large quantities of stem cells difficult. Scientists in many laboratories are trying to find better ways to grow large quantities of adult stem cells in cell culture and to manipulate them to generate specific cell types so they can be used to treat injury or disease. Some examples of potential treatments include regenerating bone using cells derived from bone marrow stroma, developing insulin-producing cells for type 1 diabetes, and repairing damaged heart muscle following a heart attack with cardiac muscle cells. B. What tests are used for identifying adult stem cells? Scientists often use one or more of the following methods to identify adult stem cells: (1) label the cells in a living tissue with molecular markers and then determine the specialized cell types they generate; (2) remove the cells from a living animal, label them in cell culture, and transplant them back into another animal to determine whether the cells replace (or "repopulate") their tissue of origin. Importantly, it must be demonstrated that a single adult stem cell can generate a line of genetically identical cells that then gives rise to all the appropriate differentiated cell types of the tissue. To confirm experimentally that a putative adult stem cell is indeed a stem cell, scientists tend to show either that the cell can give rise to these genetically identical cells in culture, and/or that a purified population of these candidate stem cells can repopulate or reform the tissue after transplant into an animal.
  5. So if growth factors and hormones affect stem cell functions, then our lifestyles…. our experiences and behaviors…. are also likely to influence homeostatic stem-cell related processes—for example, regular cell turnover in blood and skin, wound healing throughout the body, and even our sensory and cognitive abilities when it comes to adult stem cells in the brain. So not surprisingly, what is good for your body (point to bullets) is good for your stem cells…. and so, what’s good for your stem cells is also good for your body. Why? Because the regulation of stem cells not only plays a really important role in various disease states but also these proliferative cells actively participate in maintaining our overall health. If you’re good to your stem cells, they’ll be good to you. (This is a single mouse embryonic stem cell on silicon nanotubes.)
  6. Cells stick and respond to molecules embedded in their extracellular environment (top left). They also respond to chemicals or molecules floating around in the liquid surrounding them (middle left). Cells can feel and communicate with each other (bottom left), and also can respond to forces. How might an embryonic stem cell respond if it touches a bunch of muscle cells? (wait for answers) It might differentiate into a muscle fiber. How do you think that same stem cell would respond to culture with a bunch of neurons? (wait) It’ll turn into a neuron. Here, this stem cell is going to make a decision to self-renew or differentiate based on the individual components and combinations of these factors in the extracellular environment.
