L5 - ASC Flashcards
eg of types of ASCs
haematopeitic
Mesenchymal
intestinal
neural
what does the HSC divide into
ST-HSC
where do HSC come from during the development of embyro
blood islands in the yolk sac
after generating HSC from the yolk sac, where will it generate after
aorta-gonad mesonephros (AGM) at the ventral wall of the dorsal aorta
how does the SC become generated from the dorsal aorta
the endothelium of the aorta undergo a change where it becomes round non adherant cell type
types of Mescenchymal stem cells (MSC)
stromal
parenchymal
function of stromal cells
provide support to the parenchymal cells
function of parenchymal cells
provide the main function for that tissue
example of stromal cells
multi potential bone marrow stromal cells
- used as a feeder layer for HSC in vitro
what can multi potential bone marrow stromal cells differentiate into
osteoblasts > bone
adipocytes > fat
chondrocytes > cartilage
where are the MSC found
in the perivascular cells surrounding the blood vessel
