Where does the problem stem from? A major breakthrough was made toward the identification of genes (see figure) that give stem cells their unique properties. This “stem cell molecular signature” or the “genetic blueprint” will certainly offer a powerful resource for understanding some of the stem‐cell‐related diseases and will become a basis for new experiments on the therapeutic application of stem cells.
