Stem Cell Biology

This book embarks on a comprehensive exploration of stem cells guided by various contributions from Indian academicians and researchers. This volume provides a thorough understanding of the current state of stem cell research and the wide range of applications, and pays tribute to the historical milestones that have paved the way. The book covers a wide range of aspects regarding stem cells, such as the fundamental biology of stem cells, various types of stem cells embryonic, adult sources as well as induced pluripotent stem cells [iPSCs], understanding the molecular aspects of stem cells to preclinical and clinical translational potential of stem cells. Stem cell applications in innovative pharmaceutical research, drug discovery, and veterinary regenerative medicine are also discussed. A glimpse of cancer stem cells and biomaterials-integrated stem cell strategies for therapeutic application will provide valuable insights to the readers.
