New Frontiers in Stem Cells Research

About This Hardback

The unspecialized cells which have the ability to become specialized cells with a more specific function, such as blood cells, brain cells, heart muscle cells or bone cells are termed as stem cells. There are various sources of stem cells such as embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells and perinatal stem cells. Research in this field focuses on understanding of how diseases occur, test new drugs for safety and effectiveness, and generating healthy cells to replace diseased cells, also known as regenerative medicine. Stem cells have applications in bone marrow tra...
