Handbook of Regenerative Medicine: Stem Cell-Based Approach

The Handbook of Regenerative Medicine: Stem Cell-Based Approach is a comprehensive academic reference that examines the many facets of stem cell research within regenerative medicine. Covering the biology, characteristics, and applications of mesenchymal and non-mesenchymal stem cells, it addresses potential treatments for conditions such as radiation injuries, spinal cord injuries, diabetes, osteoarthritis, Alzheimer's disease, and oral surgery complications.

The book explores neuronal stem cells for neural repair, myoblast implants for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and immunotherapy using nongenetically modified natural killer cells. It also investigates botanical leads combined with stem cell therapy, the role of stem cells in healthy aging and cancer, and the significance of cancer stem cells in chemoresistance, particularly in lung, glioma, and gynecologic cancers.

Later chapters discuss engineering mesenchymal stem cells for bone regeneration, treating intracerebral hemorrhage, cell-free scaffolding for tissue engineering, and adult stem cell disease tropism. Intended for researchers, professionals, and academicians in regenerative medicine, stem cell biology, and medical biotechnology, this first edition is published in English as a publisher PDF.
