The term stem cell refers to the pluripotential nature of the cell. These amazing cells have the ability to transform into one of the 220 different phenotypic cell types found in humans. They also possess great regenerative power and can multiply infinitely in addition to their phenotypic capabilities. Three stem cell types exist: embryonic, adult, and induced
pluripotent stem (iPS) cells.
