I was watching an interview with Michael J. Fox tonight, and he said that there are two types of stem cells - embryonic and adult - and that adult stem cells were not undifferentiated, but rather were "older" and had a tendency to become a certain kind of cell.
I thought the answer was that even adult stem cells were undifferentiated. I thought I read on this site an article that mentioned adult follicular stem cells being investigated for the use of treating other conditions. I figured this implies that adult stem cells can still become any type of cell.
Anybody know?
