undifferentiated cell; anaplastic cell; indifferent cell
Biology term for a cell that has not yet developed into a specialized cell type. 'Anaplastic cell' is used in pathology for cells that have lost differentiation, often in tumors.
Undifferentiated cells have the ability to change into cells with specific functions.
幹細胞 (stem cell) is a type of undifferentiated cell that can both self-renew and differentiate into various cell types. 未分化細胞 is a broader term that includes any cell not yet specialized, including stem cells and progenitor cells.
