This volume is a valuable resource for basic biologists, translational
scientists, and clinicians.The chapters emphasize the emerging data confirming
the role of EVs in the pathogenesis of diseases and discuss the scientific
advances that have made it feasible to characterize and engineer EVs, leading to
their use as tools in biomarker discovery and disease diagnosis, prognosis,
therapeutic application, and theranostics.
This book is a science education booklet
that explores the interior design of cells and vividly describes the processes
that take place within its organelles and structures. Each chapter includes some
review questions.

This book provides a
comprehensive overview of some of the advanced cell culture methodologies and
applications. It serves as a valuable source for scientists, researchers,
clinicians and students.
This book is an open
access collection of invited, original, peer-reviewed chapters covering a range
of topics related to stem cell biology written by top researchers in the field
at the Harvard Stem Cell Institute and worldwide. Stem Book is aimed at stem
cell and non-specialist researchers.

The book covers a wide
range of issues related to new developments and innovations in cell-based
therapies discussed in basic and clinical chapters from authors around the world
involved in stem cell studies and research. It thereby complements and extends
the basic coverage of stem cells, such as mesenchymal stem cells, effect of stem
cells on aging, cover hematopoietic stem cells, storage and cryopreservation,
issues related to clinical applications such as haploidentical transplants and
use of stem cells for the treatment of Huntingtons disease.
One of the most unique physical features of cell
adhesion to external surfaces is the active generation of mechanical force at
the cell-material interface. This includes pulling forces generated by contractile polymer bundles and networks, and pushing forces
generated by the polymerization of polymer networks. Topics covered includes: Physics of cell-matrix adhesions, Cell shape and
forces, Active response of cells, Cell assemblies
This note explains the following topics: Immunologic targeting
of the cancer stem cell, Immunological considerations for cell therapy using
human embryonic stem cell derivatives, Mouse models of graft-versus-host
disease, Prospects for ensuring acceptance of ES cell-derived tissues.
