Living Stem Cells Discovered in 17-Day-Old Human Corpses!!
Life is a mystery, people are also a mystery, but our biological structure is more of a mystery than anything else!! This is amazing!!

Stem cells can remain alive in human corpses for at least 17 days after death, researchers say.
Stem cells give rise to all other cells in the body, a property that makes them extraordinarily valuable in potential therapies. These potent cells are often rare, only present in small numbers in tissue samples from patients and difficult to distinguish from other cell types in many cases. As such, scientists are investigating novel ways to procure stem cells and improve the viability of the ones they can get.
