Cellular Transplantation: From Laboratory to Clinic
Friday, 27 April, 2007
There have been tremendous strides in cellular transplantation in recent years, leading to accepted practice for the treatment of certain diseases, and use for many others in trial phases.
The long history of cellular transplantation, or the transfer of cells from one organism or region of the body to another, has been revolutionised by advances in stem cell research, as well as developments in gene therapy.
Cellular Transplants: From Lab to Clinic provides a thorough foundation of the basic science underpinning this exciting field, expert overviews and detailed descriptions of clinical success stories, as well as insights into the road ahead.
As highlighted by this timely and authoritative survey, scale-up technologies and whole organ transplantation are among the hurdles representing the next frontier.
