This book discusses the two different cellular approaches that are
pursued in regenerative medicine: cell therapy and tissue
engineering. It examines in detail the therapeutic application of
hematopoietic stem cells in marrow regeneration, multi-potent
mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), also referred to as mesenchymal
stromal cells. The interest in MSCs can be seen in more than 150
clinical trials, some of which have progressed to Phase III,
despite the cells' limited differentiation potential. The book also
explores how embryonic stem (ES) cells, being pluripotent in
nature, can resolve some of the problems associated with adult stem
cells, yet entail other challenges like risks of teratoma formation
and immune rejection. A separate chapter deals with the role of
noncoding RNAs in neuronal commitment of induced pluripotent stem
(iPS) cells. Chapters like "Cord blood banking in India and the
global scenario"; "3D bioprinting of tissue" and others will make
this book an extremely interesting read for all students,
researchers and clinicians working in the area of regenerative
medicine/stem cells. The book is broadly divided into two parts,
the first of which is devoted to basic information on stem cells,
and the second of which addresses potential clinical applications
in the areas of hematology, cardiology, orthopedic and immune
suppression, etc.
