neutral  liz askew: The source text = celúlas precursoras.//No,there is a subtle difference between "precursor cell" and "stem-cell". As the references show.
30 mins
  -> The translation is stem cells, at least in the US. Your links poit to pages in the UK, maybe the usage there is different?

agree  Steven Huddleston

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