Description
Mesenchymal stem cells. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of two human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). MSCs are multipotent stromal (connective tissue) cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types, including osteoblasts (bone cells), chondrocytes (cartilage cells), and adipocytes (fat cells). The youngest, most primitive MSCs can be obtained from the umbilical cord tissue. Magnification x3000 when printed 10 centimetres wide.
