embryonic stem cell lines

Embryonic stem cell lines are groups of cells derived from early-stage embryos that have the unique ability to develop into any type of cell in the body. These cells are collected and grown in laboratories, where they can be kept alive and undifferentiated for extended periods. Researchers use embryonic stem cell lines to study human development and explore potential treatments for diseases, as they can be directed to become specific cell types needed for therapy or research. Their versatility makes them an important resource in regenerative medicine and biomedical research.
