R3,944 Discovery Miles 39 440 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Stem Cells in Medicine, Volume 199 in the Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science series, provides the most topical and informative research in the field of stem cells. Sections in this new release update on an Introduction to stem cells, Stem cell engineering, Xeno-free culture and proliferation of hPSCs on 2D biomaterials, 3D scaffold preparation for stem cell culture and differentiation, GMP grade production of hPSCs, Human hepatic stem cell assay, Cardiomyocyte cell sheets derived from hPSCs and muscle cells for myocardial infarction treatment, Stem cell therapy for osteoarthritis, hPSC-derived RPE transplantation for the treatment of macular degeneration, and much more. The book provides not only fundamental aspects and cultural and production methods of stem cells, but also the critical engineering aspects of stem cells such as drug screening using hepatocytes and disease treatment by transplantation of retinal pigment epithelium and cardiomyocytes which are derived from human pluripotent stem cells.

Stem Cell Laboratory Techniques: A Guide for Researchers and Students introduces the reader to stem cell culture, handling techniques and versatile applications used by researchers. Sections introduce stem cells, including definitions, types and basic use of stem cells in biomedical science research. The book explains laboratory procedures and techniques ranging from the extraction of stem cells from animals, cell seeding and culture, harvest and maintenance of stem cells, stem cell characterization, accurate recording, quality control, and more. In addition, it guides researchers on topics such as transcriptome analysis, proliferation study analysis, and microphysiological study. Final sections cover useful and recent applications in stem cells, such as gene editing techniques and the preparation of stem cells for in vitro study, as well as stem cell lab design and equipment used in the lab. Lastly, human and animal research ethics are discussed.

Biomaterial Control of Therapeutic Stem Cells (Hardcover): Akon Higuchi Biomaterial Control of Therapeutic Stem Cells (Hardcover)

Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), which cover both human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), show promise for drug discovery and regenerative medicine applications. These stem cells cannot be cultured on conventional tissue culture dishes but on biomaterials that have specific interactions with the hPSCs. Differentiation is regulated by the biological and physical cues conferred by the biomaterial. This book provides a systematic treatment of these topics bridging the gap between fundamental biomaterials research of stem cells and their use in clinical trials. The author looks at hPSC culture on a range of biomaterial substrates. Differentiation and control of hESCs and iPSCs into cardiomyocytes, osteoblasts, neural lineages and hepatocytes are covered. The author then considers their translation into stem cell therapies and looks at clinical trials across spinal cord injury, macular degeneration, bone disease and myocardial infarction. Finally, a chapter on future directions closes the book. By using this book, the reader will gain a robust overview of current research and a clearer understanding of the status of clinical trials for stem cell therapies.
