Pluripotency is the most immature stage of a stem cell. That is they could form different types of cells without losing their `stemness’. Multipotent cells are no longer stem cells, but can still form cells of different lineages. A monopotent cell is still immature, but has selected its lineage forming only one type of mature cell.
