1 Stem Cell Development Lesson 1 The Science and Ethics of Stem Cell Research

2 An Overview of Early Development modeled with Play-Dough Fertilized egg Totipotent stem cells Totipotent : Can become any cell in body or placenta Fate Decision Pluripotent stem cells (3-5 days old) Blastocyst Pluripotent: Can become any cell in body Implantation Fate Decision Gastrulation (day 14) leads to Primary Germ Cells Endoderm (inner)  digestive tract, resp. track Mesoderm (middle)  bones, blood cells, heart Ectoderm (outer)  skin, CNS Multipotent: Can become any cell within a specific germ layer or cell lineage Embryonic stem cells come from inner cell mass of blastocyst. Implantation Fate Decision Gastrulation (day 14) leads to Primary Germ Cells Endoderm (inner)  digestive tract, resp. track Mesoderm (middle)  bones, blood cells, heart Ectoderm (outer)  skin, CNS Multipotent: Can become any cell within a specific germ layer or cell lineage Multipotent
