Description
"Stem cells are multipotent cells that sustain and repair tissues by dividing and differentiating to form the various different cell types normally present. Embryonic stem cells are capable of differentiating into any cell type, whereas adult stem cells are typically restricted to a particular lineage. This book examines recent progress in our understanding of the biology of these cells, how they are regulated, and opportunities for using them in disease therapies"--
