Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Immunomodulation

Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Immunomodulation edited by Charles J. Malemud, Eben Alsberg.

This essential volume explores mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their potential to suppress immune-mediated inflammation. The chapters examine applications in autoimmune diseases such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis; blood cancers such as leukemia and lymphoma; and reproductiv...
