stem cells
Never heard of, and it lacks references. I'd say it's in turn a bad translation from "stem cells". Of course the correct form would be "cellule staminali".

: maybe, however, they meant the "progenitor cells"; there's a slight difference

progenitor cells
Maybe that's what they meant.

Here's a reference from Wikipedia:
"Most progenitors are described as unipotent or multipotent. In this point of view, they may be compared to adult stem cells. But progenitors are said to be in a farther stage of cell differentiation. They are in the “center” between stem cells and fully differentiated cell."

: sorry, I don't think so: if you deal with progenitor cells you usually specify the cell line they will generate. And, this is not hte case of the present KudoZ.

Here's another bad translation, from Spanish (células troncales):

Il testo proibisce però la clonazione umana e la creazione di embrioni destinati alla ricerca utilizzando quelle tecniche atte ad ottenere cellule troncali embrionali umane, utilizzabili solo a scopo terapeutico e investigativo, senza comportare la creazione di un pre-embrione.

"Trunk" is being used here to illustrate what stem cells are. We don't talk about "trunk cells" in English when we mean stem cells.

This is clearly referring to human embryonic stem cell research in general.

Ciao Mirra, have a look at what Asker is translating. This is clearly referring to stem cells in general, not cells from the trunk of the embryo./grazie Mirra :-)

le cellule staminali del tronco embrionale....
We studied the behavior of myogenic progenitors from donor desmin+/- LacZ embryos after implantation into tibialis anterior muscle of 2-month-old mouse hosts. Myogenic progenitors were collected from 10-day post-coital mouse embryo somite dermomyotomes (DMs), forelimb buds (LBs), and trunks

In this class we will follow the path of oxygenated blood through the embryo then look at the passage of venous blood through the cardinal veins. At this stage of development the embryo trunk consists mainly of heart, liver and embryonic kidney.

Dear Sue,
I answer you here (hoping you read this :) since I have no more space in the p.c. section.
I asked for clarification and I hope that, with more context, we will be able to understand precisely what is this 'trunk' we're dealing with :))

ah ehhhhh as usual the answer lies in...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_crest :)
" Trunk neural crest
The trunk neural crest lies between the vagal and sacral neural crest and gives rise to two groups of cells. One group migrates dorsolateral and populates the skin, forming pigment cells and the other migrates ventrolateral through the anterior sclerotome to become the epinephrine-producing cells of the adrenal gland and the neurons of the sympathetic nervous system. Some cells remain in the sclerotome to form the dorsal root ganglia
Other Migration Locations:
Proximal to the spinal cord and line up symmetrically to form the dorsal root ganglia.
Into the skin to form melanocytes and Merkel cells.
Chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla.
Near the vertebral column and become sympathetic chain ganglia. "
not to be confused with the cells coming from the nerve trunk!!

here it is:
The cardiologia and the restoration of nervous linkings are very distant areas between itself in the medicine, but the two treatments that happen in Brazil have a common characteristic. They are made to the base of the most special type of cell, the calls cell-trunk. They are primitive, virgin cells, that they have the potential of if transforming into other types of cells a time diverse that are inside of the organism. For example, they can exactly be the cells of that a sick person of the heart, or a paraplégico, is needing.
The biologist Radovan Borojevic, who is titular professor of the Federal University of Rio De Janeiro, works with cell-trunk since that they had another name. In 68, then the young doctor for the University of Paris called them?células-mother. moment?Nesse I did not have the lesser idea of that this could be used one day for therapies, it remembers the biologist.
Two main types of cell-trunk exist. Type 1 is the cell-trunk embryonic, that, as the name says, they exist in the embryos. The days pass and the cell-trunk goes if differentiating, that is, if they transform into some fabrics of that new organism. Type 2 is the cell-trunk of the adults, who if hide in the óssea marrow, inside of the bones. Nobody gave much ball for them. series of discoveries practically simultaneous in some laboratories in world, that they had shown that the cells in the óssea marrow of the adult individuals have the regeneration capacity and have the capacity to restore the injuries, to regenerate the injuries in all the fabrics, as the liver, the brain, the spinal marrow, esquelético muscle and cardiac muscle, Borojevic explains.
