Stem Cells and Cancer Stem Cells, Volume 11 Therapeutic Applications in Disease and injury / edited by M.A. Hayat.

Volume 11 in this series discusses therapeutic applications of stem cells in disease and tissue injury. Coverage includes pluripotent stem cells, which can give rise to the endodermal, ectodermal, and mesodermal lineages; multipotent stem cells, which can generate all cells in a particular lineage a...
