Description
We will describe the basic concepts about stem cells, types according to their origin and differentiation potential. We will delve into the possible applications of Regenerative Medicine to heal and repair organs and tissues through cell replacement therapy with its advantages and disadvantages.
We will study each type of stem cell according to its differentiation potential from pluripotent cells such as human embryonic stem cells to induced pluripotent cells whose discoverer was awarded with the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2012. We will analyze somatic stem cells and those that have been identified in organs and reproductive tissues: ovaries, testes, endometrium, myometrium, and umbilical cord blood.
We will study germ stem cells, which are haploid sex cells that can be obtained from embryonic stem cells or by somatic cell transdifferentiation.
We will review the legal and ethical foundations that handle studies with these cell types.

Competencies
- Describe the basic concepts of cellular and molecular biology related to stem cells as well as the different types of stem cells.
- Explain the ethical and legal principles surrounding stem cell use and research including issues of informed consent and intellectual property.
- Relate the unique characteristics of stem cells to their ability to regenerate tissues and treat diseases and their application in regenerative medicine and biomedical research.
- Analyze scientific and technological advances in the field of stem cell research and evaluate the results of preclinical and clinical studies that investigate their potential use.
- Evaluate the safety and effectiveness of stem cell-based therapies in clinical trials and preclinical studies.
- Assess the social ethical and economic implications of research and clinical application of stem cells.
