Kurzbeschreibung
This book contains material contributed by forward-looking scientists who work at the interface of stem cell research and applied science with the aim to improve human fetal safety and the understanding of human developmental and degenerative disorders. The book is unique in that it considers both in vitro uses of stem cells as platforms for teratology, and also "stem cellopathies," which are human developmental and degenerative disorders that are caused by harmful impacts to resident adult stem cells in vivo.
This book contains material contributed by forward-looking scientists who work at the interface of stem cell research and applied science with the aim to improve human fetal safety and the understanding of human developmental and degenerative disorders.
* Provides important platforms and contemporary accounts of the state of stem cell research in the fields of toxicology and teratology
* Considers both in vitro uses of stem cells as platforms for teratology and also stem cellopathies, which are in vivo developmental and degenerative disorders
* Helps the pharmaceutical industry and safety and environmental authorities validate the status quo of in vitro toxicity test systems based on human pluripotent stem cells and their derivatives
