inner cell mass A cluster of cells in a mammalian blastocyst that protrudes into one end of the cavity and subsequently develops into the embryo proper and some of the extraembryonic membranes. inositol trisphosphate (IP3) ... Full article >>>
The blastocyst has an outer layer of cells, and inside this hollow sphere, there is a cluster of cells called the inner cell mass. The cells of the inner cell mass will go on to form virtually all of the tissues of the human body. Full article >>>
to use for tissue repair studies and so forth are derived from the very early embryo at the so-called blastocyst stage, which is where the embryo has first developed a cavity within it and there's a group of cells in there called the inner cell mass. Full article >>>
blastocyst The developmental stage of the fertilized ovum by the time it is ready to implant; formed from the morula and consists of an inner cell mass, an internal cavity, and an outer layer of cells (the trophoblast). Full article >>>
