Boundaries in stem cell and reformative medicine research – EurekAlert

Frontiers in Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine Research informs on multidisciplinary areas relevant to stem cell research and their application in regenerative medicine. The series is vital reading for researchers seeking updates in stem cell therapeutics and regenerative medicine.

The tenth volume of Frontiers in Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine Researchpresents important recent developments in this fast-growing field.

Volume 10 includes 5 chapters on these topics:

-Novel drugs and their stem cell-based targets forosteoporosis: challenges and proceedings

-The role ofcancer stem cellsin disease progression and therapy resistance

-Stem cells fromhuman exfoliated deciduous teethin tissue regeneration

-The fate oftoxicological studies: from animal models to stem cell-based methods

-Effect of material properties on differentiation ofmesenchymal stem cells

Audience: Pharmaceutical scientists, biomedical researchers, stem cell biologists, pre-clinical and clinical researchers, life science, researchers, and healthcare professionals in regenerative medicine
