Definition
Somatic stem cells are undifferentiated cells that reside in many tissues of the adult body, where they play an important role in maintaining homeostasisand damaged tissues repair. They have a capacity for self-renewal and differentiation. Populations of somatic stem cells residing in a specific microenvironment of their cellular niche, are heterogenous and dynamic, and consisting of both active and quiescent cells. Somatic stem cells are an attractive tool for regenerative medicine, as compared to some types of immortalized or induced pluripotent cell lines, they do not carry a risk of tumor formation, do not come from embryos, and show low immunogenicity even in allogeneic systems [1] [2] [3].
