Regenerative Therapy Using Bloodderived Stem Cells

In this book, embryonic stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, and mesenchymal stem cells are discussed. Readers are expected to gain useful information from expert contributors.

There is hardly an area of research developing so quickly and raising so many promises as stem cell research. Adult, embryonic and recently available induced pluripotent stem cells not only foster our understanding of differentiation of endo-, ecto- and mesodermal lineages to all organs of the body, but foremost nourish the hope that cells grown in culture can be used for regeneration of diseased organs such as the heart damaged by myocardial infarction.

This book represents a major contribution to the emerging science of regenerative medicine using non-fetal sources of stem cells.

This volume provides details of the recent advancements in regenerative therapies for regenerative medicine applications.

Cell Therapy, Stem Cells, and Brain Repair reviews the most compelling treatments for neurodegenerative diseases, disorders, and injuries, including Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, traumatic brain injury, and stroke.
