Defined as, "The science about the development of an embryo from
the fertilization of the ovum to the fetus stage," embryology has
been a mainstay at universities throughout the world for many
years. Throughout the last century, embryology became overshadowed
by experimental-based genetics and cell biology, transforming the
field into developmental biology, which replaced embryology in
Biology departments in many universities. Major contributions in
this young century in the fields of molecular biology, biochemistry
and genomics were integrated with both embryology and developmental
biology to provide an understanding of the molecular portrait of a
"development cell." That new integrated approach is known as
stem-cell biology; it is an understanding of the embryology and
development together at the molecular level using engineering,
imaging and cell culture principles, and it is at the heart of this
seminal book. Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine: From Molecular
Embryology to Tissue Engineering is completely devoted to the basic
developmental, cellular and molecular biological aspects of stem
cells as well as their clinical applications in tissue engineering
and regenerative medicine. It focuses on the basic biology of
embryonic and cancer cells plus their key involvement in
self-renewal, muscle repair, epigenetic processes, and therapeutic
applications. In addition, it covers other key relevant topics such
as nuclear reprogramming induced pluripotency and stem cell culture
techniques using novel biomaterials. A thorough introduction to
stem-cell biology, this reference is aimed at graduate students,
post-docs, and professors as well as executives and scientists in
biotech and pharmaceutical companies.
