As with the previous edition, this book covers all aspects of gene and cell therapies from bench to bedside in chapters contributed by authors worldwide. It covers the basic principles of all technologies through to state-of-the-art strategies and applications. The newly updated…
A handbook of gene and cell therapy
by Nóbrega, Clévio, Mendonça, Liliana, Matos, Carlos A.
This is a reference handbook for young researchers exploring gene and cell therapy. Gene therapy could be defined as a set of strategies modifying gene expression or correcting mutant/defective genes through the administration of DNA (or RNA) to cells, in order to treat disease.…
Vascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Distinguished clinical and surgical approaches have attempted to overcome its morbidity and mortality; still 17.9 million people die every year due to vascular afflictions. Stem cell therapy has emerged as a promising t…
This volume looks at a collection of stem cell and regenerative techniques used by both novice and expert scientists. Chapters cover topics such as tissue repaired by expansion and reprogramming; induced pluripotent stem cells driven in neuronal or vascular differentiation; usin…
