The main difference between cancer cells and normal tissue stem cells is that cancer cells are abnormal and present mutations.
Acute leukemia versus chronic leukemia. The first factor in classifying a patientâs leukemia is whether most of the abnormal cells look like normal white blood cells (mature) or look more like stem cells (immature). In acute leukemia, the leukemia cells are immature blood cells (called blasts). These leukemias are fast growing because normal blast cells divide quickly. But the leukemia cells donât divide any more often than normal blast cells do. They just donât stop dividing when normal blast cells would.
