David Russi Feb 17, 2009:
Como dice Laura, sí existe una diferencia de registro, pero tienes que estar seguro de tu público, porque fuera del mundo científico bien pocos van comprender la palabra murine, al menos en EE.UU.
Ana L Fazio-Kroll Feb 17, 2009:
Richard, depende a que tipo de audiencia va dirigido. En el medio científico se les llama murine stem cells, pero si va dirigido a un público más general, puedes decir mouse stem cells. Saludos!

Thank you and your brother ! :-)
agree Krys Williams : It seems precursors are one step up from stem (see ref). Something new learned every day!

neutral liz askew : The source text = celúlas precursoras.//No,there is a subtle difference between "precursor cell" and "stem-cell". As the references show.

The translation is stem cells, at least in the US. Your links poit to pages in the UK, maybe the usage there is different?

neutral Lisa McCarthy : Aren´t stem cells 'celulas madres'? Here they specify 'precursor cells' not stem cells.
