	'''Cell potency''' is a measure of a cell's ability to [[cellular differentiation\|differentiate]] into other cell types. Cell potency for cells varies on a apectrum, from totipotency (ability to differentiate into all cell types in the organism) to unipotency (ability to differentiate into only one other cell type).		'''Cell potency''' is a measure of a cell's ability to [[cellular differentiation\|differentiate]] into other cell types. Cell potency for cells varies on a apectrum, from totipotency (ability to differentiate into all cell types in the organism) to unipotency (ability to differentiate into only one other cell type). The concept of cell potency applies to [[stem cell]]s and [[progenitor cell]]s.
