Stem cells are preliminary body cells from which all other cells with specialized functions are generated. Under a controlled environment in the body or a clinical laboratory, these cells divide to form more cells called daughter cells. Due to the advent of modern health science, these cells play a major role in understanding the occurrence of diseases, the generation of advanced regenerative medicines, and drug discovery. There are certain sources such as embryos, bone marrow, body fats, and umbilical cord blood amongst others, where stem cells are generated.
