Wikipedia Trail: From Stem Cells to Collagen

Stem Cells
I started with stem cells because I am currently using that topic for my capstone topic. We are using stem cells to help patients with heart disease.

Adipose Tissue
Adipose tissue is a potential source for obtaining stem cells. I wanted to read more about the advantages/disadvantages of extracting cells from this location.

Fibroblasts
Fibroblasts play a major role in the body for wound healing. I wanted to read more into the specific role fibroblasts could play in healing the cardiovascular system.

Collagen
Collagen is the building block of the body. It is the main structural protein for connecting tissues, and it is the most abundant protein in the human body.
