The field of neural transplantation is at a crucial stage, with
important clinical trials on transplantation in patients with
Parkinson's disease nearing completion and novel, alternative
approaches to fetal transplantation being developed.
This timely book brings together leading neuroscientists,
clinicians, and cell and developmental biologists to discuss the
use of neural transplants in neurodegenerative disorders, such as
Parkinson's disease, Huntington's chorea, amyotrophic lateral
sclerosis, multiple sclerosis and spinal cord injury. There is also
extensive coverage of the potential alternatives to freshly derived
fetal tissue as the source of transplants, for example xenografts,
encapsulated cells and immortalized stem cells. With authoritative
contributions and lively discussion sections, this book presents
much new and exciting work in this field and identifies promising
new research directions.
