This timely volume explores tissue-derived stem cells, summarizing and evaluating the current body of knowledge. Sixteen chapters cover hematopoietic, osteoblast, skeletal, cardiac, pancreatic, epithelial, corneal, hepatic, renal, testicular, ovarian, fingernail, hair follicle and other stem cells- discussing their individual development, functions and pathologies, as well as the commonalities and interdependence between niches.
This installment of the popular Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine series delivers authoritative, international perspectives on this rapidly growing field.
Tissue-Specific Stem Cell Niche
is an ideal complementary volume to
Biology of Stem Cell Niche
and
Adult Stem Cells, Second Edition
and will be invaluable to clinicians and researchers working with stem cells as well as to postgraduate trainees who are studying them.
