"Perinatal Stem Cells, 2nd Edition "builds on the first edition to
provide an updated tutorial on perinatal stem cells, including stem
cells harvested from the amniotic fluid, placenta, maternal blood
supply, umbilical cord and Wharton's Jelly. As in the first
edition, coverage includes the underlying biology of each of the
sources of pregnancy related stem cells, cell culture, and
potential therapeutic uses, as well as insights on the impact of
these stem cells from obstetricians and gynecologists,
cardiologists, hematologists, tissue engineers, and cord blood
bankers.
Normally discarded as medical waste, perinatal stem cells offer
a powerful therapeutic tool box alternative to the controversial
embryonic stem cells. Since publication of the first edition, a
burgeoning commerical industry has developed around various sources
of perinatal cells, and the second edition now includes an overview
of this growing industry.
With contributions from some of the top academic stem cell
laboratories in the United States as well as new chapters from
international stem cell scientists, "Perinatal Stem Cells" presents
an update on the cutting-edge research in the field while
maintaining its signature clinical focus.
