Document Summary
These cells are naturally developed in humans and are low in abundance. Stem cells: the process that develops these cells cause potential genetic modifications. Pluripotent stem cells: these cells develop naturally, have few immune cells, and do not require the destruction of an embryo. Umbilical cord blood stem cell: the process that creates these cells requires donor nucleus and an embryo. Embryonic stem cells developed via therapeutic cloning: these cells are produced during development and their use tends to be the most controversial. Embryonic stem cells: bone marrow transplants commonly involve somatic stem cells. Typically, cannot be made into any type of cell in the body: although multiple kinds of stem cells can become any type of cell in the body,
