My histology textbook says the following:
The pluripotential hemopoietic stemm cell (which resembles a lymphocyte) is a member of the null cell population of lymphocytes.
It then goes on to add:
There are three types of lymphocytes:
- T cells
- B cells
- Null cells:
- Pluripotential hemopoietic stem cells
- Natural Killer cells
However, this is the only text I find that classifies Pluripotential hemopoietic stem cells as null cells. My question is: what are null cells? (and is this textbook accurate)
Thank you, jsx
stemm cell
and by this small typo of yours , it makes me wonder whether(which resembles a lymphocyte)
was added by you or was in the original quotation. You also want to cite which textbook it is (and eventually add a link to it). Are the bullets a direct quote as well? If yes, you should start the lines with>
to highlight that it is a quote. $\endgroup$
