MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
Recently, expectations of the potential of regenerative medicine have risen because of the exciting results obtained in various areas of research. This book contains contributions from leading researchers in the field who describe their successes and the problems that remain in converting the hopes into concrete therapies. The focus of the book is on the role of stem cells in two main areas -- reproduction and the brain -- described from molecular, cellular, in vivo and clinical perspectives.
Feature:
Contributions from leading researchers in the field of stem cell therapy

Aus den Rezensionen:
"In Stammzellen … werden große Hoffnungen für die Therapie gesetzt. Doch welches Potential haben diese Zellen und was tun Forscher, um die Entwicklungsfähigkeit von Zellen zu steuern? Eine Menge fundierter Informationen dazu sind in dem englischsprachigen Symposiumsband ‘Stem Cells in Reproduction and in the Brain‘ zu finden. … In dem Band beschreibt zudem ein Pionier des Klonens, Dr. Teruhiko Wakayama aus Kobe, wie sich Klonen, also durch die Übertragung eines Zellkerns in eine entkernte Eizelle, embryonale Stammzellen herstellen lassen …"
