Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Immunomodulation

85 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This essential volume explores mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their potential to suppress immune-mediated inflammation. The chapters examine applications in autoimmune diseases such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis; blood cancers such as leukemia and lymphoma; and reproductive complications, specifically pre-term labor and use of MSCs
in vitro
and in animal models to discover methods of suppressing the causal inflammatory response. It also further defines the methodologies required to develop research on MSCs
in vitro
into established preclinical animal models including those which are proven replicas of autoimmunity and pre-term labor, to name but two.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Immunomodulation,
part of Springer’s
Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine,
is an invaluable resource for researchers and clinicians working with stem cells, autoimmune disease, oncology, and reproductive medicine.
