Abstract
Stem cells are cells found in most of the multi-cellular organisms. They have ability to renew themselves through mitotic cell division and differentiating into a diverse range of specialized cell types.1 Once the healthy stem cells are infused into the patient's blood stream, the cells move from the blood vessels to the center of the bones where they begin making new blood cells. Starting from the beginning, cells are the basic unit of all life. They contain DNA , which is all of the cell’s genetic material. They also have the ability to undergo cell division and replication.The harvesting of stem cells from surplus embryos is prepared for in-vitro fertilization procedures in fertility clinics.“The cord in placental mammals that joins the embryo and the placenta together, where the placenta provides nutrients to the embryo via the umbilical cord while at the same time transporting the waste material from the baby.Stem cells are self- renewing cells.The supply of these cells is maintained by stem cells, which replicate many times and then differentiate into the specialized cells that are needed. In this way, cells are continuously replenished as they die. Stem cell application is a new field with lots of promises to offer. Stem cell research is a new field with unlimited scope. Stem cells hold the key to replacing cells lost in many diseases that are caused by loss of functioning cells. The unique capability of this cell to form various tissues under definite signals received from the body, makes this cell an of extensive research.
