Pluripotent Stem-Cells<!g>Stem cells which can develop into any of the three major tissue types:
<!g>endoderm (interior gut lining), <!g>mesoderm (muscle, bone, blood), and <!g>ectoderm
(epidermal tissues and nervous system). Pluripotent stem cells can eventually
specialize in any bodily tissue, but they cannot themselves develop into a human
being.
