Multipotent Stem Cells

Multipotent Stem Cells

•  During the development of cells they become more specialized in their function.

•  The cells are committed to a single function. 
•  This process of cellular specialization is called 'Differentiation' and is controlled by the nucleus of the cell. 
•  Multipotent stem cells are a small number of partially differentiated stem cells present in adult tissues and are capable of forming a limited number of specialized cell types.
