Bone Marrow Transplantation Basic and Clinical Studies / edited by Susumu Ikehara, Fumimaro Takaku, Robert A. Good.

In the last decade, remarkable advances have been made in bone marrow transplantation (BMT), which is now becoming a powerful tool in the treatment of diseases such as leukemia, aplastic anemia, and congenital immunodeficiency. In animal experiments, it has been found that BMT can be used to treat n...
