Cell Engineering and Regeneration
Gimble, Jeffrey M. / Marolt Presen, Darja / Oreffo, Richard O. C. / Wolbank, Susanne / Redl, Heinz
This reference work presents the origins of cells for tissue engineering and regeneration, including primary cells, tissue-specific stem cells, pluripotent stem cells and trans-differentiated or reprogrammed cells. There is particular emphasis on current understanding of tissue regeneration based on embryology and evolution studies, including mechanisms of amphibian regeneration. The book covers the use of autologous versus allogeneic cell sou...
