  2. Germ cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germ_cell

    As of 2018, germ cell tumors account for 3% of all cancers in children and adolescents 0–19 years old. [22] Germ cell tumors are generally located in the gonads but can also appear in the abdomen, pelvis, mediastinum, or brain. Germ cells migrating to the gonads may not reach that intended destination and a tumor can grow wherever they end up ...

  4. Germline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germline

    Cormlets of Watsonia meriana, an example of apomixis Clathria tuberosa, an example of a sponge that can grow indefinitely from somatic tissue and reconstitute itself from totipotent separated somatic cells. In biology and genetics, the germline is the population of a multicellular organism's cells that develop into germ cells.

    Human Cell Atlas; Content; Description: The Human Cell Atlas is a global consortium that is creating detailed maps of the cells in the human body to transform understanding of health and disease. Organisms: Human: Contact; Primary citation: Regev, Aviv; et al. (Human Cell Atlas Organizing Committee) (2018). "The Human Cell Atlas White Paper".

  6. Histogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogenesis

    A germ layer is a collection of cells, formed during animal and mammalian embryogenesis. Germ layers are typically pronounced within vertebrate organisms; however, animals or mammals more complex than sponges ( eumetazoans and agnotozoans ) produce two or three primary tissue layers.

  7. List of human cell types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_cell_types

    The Human Cell Atlas project, which started in 2016, had as one of its goals to "catalog all cell types (for example, immune cells or brain cells) and sub-types in the human body". [13] By 2018, the Human Cell Atlas description based the project on the assumption that "our characterization of the hundreds of types and subtypes of cells in the ...

  8. Germ layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germ_layer

    A germ layer is a primary layer of cells that forms during embryonic development. [1] The three germ layers in vertebrates are particularly pronounced; however, all eumetazoans ( animals that are sister taxa to the sponges ) produce two or three primary germ layers.

  9. Gametogonium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gametogonium

    Germ cells are specified early in development [4] and can only differentiate into gametes. [5] The segregation of germ cells is often determined by the species, with some undergoing preformation, where the germ cells are determined by maternally inherited factors before or immediately after fertilisation, and others undergoing epigenesis, where the germ cell lineage is determined from ...
