| Abstract | been widely and inappropriately used because of the lack of specific markers that could allow for the isolation of the true stem cell. A stem cell, by a universally accepted definition, is a cell able to proliferate indefinitely and to maintain the multipotentiality throughout its lifetime. Embryonic stem cells are true stem cells, but because of the ethical concerns they raise, they have been lately overtaken by research on stem cells isolated from adult tissues. Several laboratories have successfully isolated stem cells from many tissues: the brain, the blood, the skin, the skeletal muscle, the cord blood, and the bone marrow and many have also attempted to translate their discoveries on stem cells into clinical practice. Nevertheless, as of today, several plugs are still missing: |
