Biomaterial Control of Therapeutic Stem Cells (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Covering both human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs), this book bridges the gap between biomaterials research of stem cells and their use in clinical trials. The differentiation of human pluipotent stem cells (hPSCs) can be regulated by biological and physical cues from the biomaterials they are cultured on. This book provides a systematic treatment of stem cell culture and differentiation on specific biomaterials covering: 2D and 3D culture of hPSCs; differentiation of stem cells into cardiomyocytes, osetoblasts, neural lineages and hepatocytes; and biomaterials for clinical trials of stem cell therapies. A closing chapter looks at future trends. Written by an international leader in the field, this book is suitable for researchers working in biomaterials science, bioengineering, regenerative medicine and drug design.
