There are several ways adult stem cells can be isolated, most of which are being actively explored by our researchers. Adult stem cells have been found in the brain, bone marrow , blood vessels, skeletal muscle, skin, teeth, heart, gut, liver, and other although not all organs and tissues. They are thought to live in a specific area of each tissue, where they may remain dormant for years, dividing and creating new cells only when they are activated by tissue injury, disease or anything else that makes the body need more cells. Adult stem cells can be isolated from the body in different ways, depending on the tissue.
Pros and Cons of Stem Cell Research
Adult stem cell - Wikipedia
Although commonly used and accepted, the term "adult stem cells" is a little misleading, since these cells are actually found in infants and children as well as in adults. These cells typically produce the type of tissue in which they are found. Adult stem cells are sometimes also called somatic stem cells. Various types of adult stem cells have been identified in many organs and tissues. They range from cells that are able to form many different kinds of tissues to more specialized cells that form just some of the cells of a particular tissue or organ.
Adult stem cell
Adult stem cells are undifferentiated cells , found throughout the body after development, that multiply by cell division to replenish dying cells and regenerate damaged tissues. Scientific interest in adult stem cells is centered on their ability to divide or self-renew indefinitely, and generate all the cell types of the organ from which they originate, potentially regenerating the entire organ from a few cells. They have mainly been studied in humans and model organisms such as mice and rats.

The proliferating stem cell banking industry is built on a riveting concept: Preserve stem cells while they're most potent until they are needed later in life to potentially fight disease. What started out as a market for banking stem cells from a baby's umbilical cord blood and tissue is mushrooming into an industry that now includes the preservation of adult stem cells.
