Stem cell research has the potential to affect the lives of
millions of people around the world. This research is now regularly
front-page news, and realizing the promise of mesenchymal stem
cells for yielding new medical therapies will require us to grapple
with more than just scientific uncertainties. "Mesenchymal Stem
Cells for the Heart - From Bench to Bedside" presents the
cytobiological characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells from the
isolation, culture, transmembrane ion currents, migration and
differentiation in vitro to the repairing of injured myocardium and
tissue reconstruction in vivo, including the results of basic
research and the real possibility for treatments and ultimately for
cures for cardiac diseases for which adequate therapies do not
exist. The book is intended for clinical stem cell researchers in
cardiovasology, hematology, cytobiology, molecular biology, cell
and tissue engineering, and other related fields.
Jian-an Wang, MD, PhD, Professor of Cardiology at Zhejiang
University and investigator at Loma Linda University, Southern
California, has broad expertise in the molecular and cellular
biological processes underlying cardiovascular disease. He has won
the Chinese Medical Science and Technology Medal of Honor.
