Application of Adult Stem Cells in Regenerative Medicine

Application of Adult Stem Cells in Regenerative Medicine offers a comprehensive overview of tissue engineering using adult stem cells to treat various disorders throughout the human body. The book introduces readers to adult stem cells, tissue engineering, and their application in regenerative medicine. It covers many new and up-to-date techniques, providing a solid foundation for understanding the field. Written by global leaders, this resource is invaluable for anyone studying, researching, or working in the areas of adult stem cells, tissue engineering, or regenerative medicine.The book is divided into three parts. Part One provides an introduction to adult stem cells and their application in regenerative medicine. Part Two focuses on different body organ systems, including the nervous, respiratory, digestive, urinary, circulatory, endocrine, skeletal, reproductive, muscular, and ocular systems. Part Three concludes with a review of the future of adult stem cells in regenerative medicine. This structure ensures that readers gain a thorough understanding of the current state and future potential of adult stem cells in treating various disorders.
