Question

1) What are IP Cells and Stem Cells with respect to cell death and renewal?

2) What are GAGs with respect to the extracellular matrix?

Answer 1

1. these are induced pluripotent cells which are artificially being converted into pluripotent cells. These are artificially produced cell which is followed by the map of stem cell. these are not natural cell.

they have more capacity for death and less capacity for renewal of them self.

stem cells are cells which have natural ability to convert into any kind of cells. these are undifferentiated cells which have potential to differentiate into any kind of cell of body.

they shows less death because these are natural cells and they have renewable capacity into any kind of cell of the body.

2.

glycosaminoglycans are extracellular matrix molecules which are composed of Carbohydrate and amino acids.

these are present in extracellular matrix and provides a basal support to cells and hold them. It maintains a particular defined structure which leads to maintenance of structure of tissues of various organs.
