There have been tremendous strides in cellular transplantation in
recent years, leading to accepted practice for the treatment of
certain diseases, and use for many others in trial phases. The long
history of cellular transplantation, or the transfer of cells from
one organism or region of the body to another, has been
revolutionized by advances in stem cell research, as well as
developments in gene therapy.
Cellular Transplants: From Lab to Clinic provides a thorough
foundation of the basic science underpinning this exciting field,
expert overviews of the state-of-the-art, and detailed description
of clinical success stories to date, as well as insights into the
road ahead. As highlighted by this timely and authoritative survey,
scale-up technologies and whole organ transplantation are among the
hurdles representing the next frontier.
The contents are organized into four main sections, with the first
covering basic biology, including transplant immunology, the use of
immunosuppressive drugs, stem cell biology, and the development of
donor animals for transplantation. The next part looks at
peripheral and reconstructive applications, followed by a section
devoted to transplantation for diseases of the central nervous
system. The last part presents efforts to address the key
challenges ahead, such as identifying novel transplantable cells
and integrating biomaterials and nanotechnology with cell matrices.
- Provides detailed description of clinical trials in cell
transplantation
- Review of current therapeutic approaches
- Coverage of the broad range of diseases addressed by cell
therapeutics
- Discussion of stem cell biology and its role in transplantation
