The Science and Ethics of Stem Cell Research Stem Cell Development Lesson 1 Stem Cell Development November 4, 2010 Warmup Which of the following is true of stem cells? (COPY THE ENTIRE STATEMENT FOR THE STATEMENTS YOU THINK ARE TRUE) 1. Stem cells are able to make more of themselves by dividing 2. Stem cells can differentiate (give rise to daughter cells that can develop into many types of cells). 3. Adult human bodies contain roughly 20-30% stem cells. 4. The word multipotent is used to describe a cell that can become ANY other type of cell in an organism. What will we learn about today? Where are embryonic stem cells found? How does their ability to differentiate change over time? NOVA video Stem Cells: Early Research http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/body/stem-cellsresearch.html Homework: Review worksheet on back of the gold sheet An Overview of Early Development modeled with Play-Dough Fertilized egg Totipotent: Can become any cell in body or placenta Pluripotent: Can become any cell in body Totipotent stem cells Fate Decision Pluripotent stem cells (3-5 days old) Blastocyst Multipotent: Can become any cell within a specific germ layer or cell lineage Embryonic stem cells come from inner cell mass of blastocyst.
