When writing a research paper, do you need to cite outside knowledge?

I know that in a research paper, citations must be made for sources. Also, in a DBQ (Document Based Essay), outside information must be cited. So in a research paper, must you cite information that you already knew?
If you already know it and most people do too, then it does not have to be cited. If it is knowledge that is only found in a few places or not common knowledge, then cite it for sure.
What research has been conducted in the field of stem cells and what are the summarised results?

I want to know more about this field but need a basic knowledge. I also want to know about HOW these results were achieved. Has there been any revolutionary scientific breakthroughs either in stem cell research. And could anyone please inform me about how far we off maybe curing cancer or regrowing USABLE nerve cells and any key info on either of these subjects.
Thanks.
Stem cells include a complete set of DNA of the donor and can be rejected (as any donated tissue) by another recipient and there are concerns that they can cause malignant cancers. Much remains to be learned about them and they must be used in patients only with great caution.
