FactAdult Stem Cell: Definition = Rare undifferentiated cells within a differentiated tissue that can self-renew and have limited multipotencyFactAdult Stem Cell: Niche = A specialized microenvironment where supporting cells protect the stem cells and keep them quiescent until an activating signal arrivesFactAdult Stem Cell: Tissues where identified = Skin, liver, intestine, kidney, bone marrow, heart, lung, skeletal muscle, dental pulp and other dental tissuesFactAdult Stem Cell: Most studied populations = Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells from blood, bone marrow and adipose tissue, which are easy to access and isolate
