cellfatebeslut
Cellfatebeslut is a Swedish term that refers to the critical decisions made during embryonic development that determine the fate of individual cells. These decisions are fundamental to the formation of different cell types and tissues in an organism. The process involves a series of molecular signals and genetic regulations that guide undifferentiated stem cells to differentiate into specialized cells, such as neurons, muscle cells, or skin cells.
The concept of cell fate determination is central to developmental biology and is influenced by factors like
Research into cell fate decisions has significant implications for regenerative medicine, cancer biology, and developmental disorders.
In Sweden, research in this field is supported by institutions like Karolinska Institutet and the Swedish Research
