Multipotent Stem Cells

Multipotent stem cells are a type of stem cell that can develop into a limited range of cell types within a specific family or tissue. Unlike pluripotent stem cells, which can become any cell in the body, multipotent stem cells are specialized for certain functions, such as blood, bone, or tissue repair. They play a crucial role in maintaining and healing tissues by generating new cells of their designated types. These cells are found in various tissues and are essential for regenerative processes, helping the body repair damage and maintain health within their specific biological scope.
