Ricker Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 If anyone can help me with a complete list of human cells, it wold be appreciated. You don't have to tell me what they do, just there names. I'm trying to make an entire list for my research. Thanks to anyone who will help me b/c one day I hope to be a diagnostician. Thanks ~Rick~
Mokele Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Most Anatomy & physiology textbooks have such a list.
LucidDreamer Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 I don't know how complete it is, but here is a long list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_distinct_cell_types_in_the_adult_human_body
Ricker Posted October 6, 2005 Author Posted October 6, 2005 Much thanks for the help Though I have a very hard time finding such a list in any Anat & Phsy. Books b/c they probably don't have an entire list either. Aside, I have no access to a Anatomy Book anyway.
lucaspa Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 I don't know how complete it is' date=' but here is a long list:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_distinct_cell_types_in_the_adult_human_body[/quote'] If memory serves, there are 212 distinct differentiated cell types in the human body. It looks like they are all there. Good research job! There are problably more, since "fibroblast", chondrocyte", and "endothelial cell" are probably labels for several distinct phenotypes that are not yet universally recognized.
