User:Peter Znamenskiy/Progenitor cell
Progenitor cells arise from division of stem cells but are limited in the number of cell division cycles they can go through. They divide rapidly to produce a pool cells that then differentiate and integrate into the tissue. The transit-amplifying neural progenitors of the rostral migratory stream are a characteristic example.
