Embryonic stem cell. Also called ES cells, embryonic stem cells are cells derived from the inner cell mass of developing blastocysts. An ES cell is self-renewing (can replicate itself), pluripotent (can form all cell types found in the body) and theoretically is immortal.tem cells that can give rise to all cell types that are found in an embryo, fetus, or developed organism, including the embryonic components of the trophoblast and placenta required to support development and birth.
The process by which the body produces blood is called hematopoiesis. All blood cells (RBCs, WBCs and platelets) come from the same type of cell, called the pluripotential hematopoietic stem cell. This group of cells has the potential to form any of the different types of blood cells and also to reproduce itself.This cell then forms committed stem cells that will form specific types of blood cells. Red blood cells (RBCs), also known as erythrocytes, are by far the most abundant cells in the blood.his group of cells has the potential to form any of the different types of blood cells and also to reproduce itself.
