This is a unique book containing comprehensive coverage of stem cell therapies for the treatment of diabetes. The greatest enthusiasm for treatment lies in the possibility of using pluripotent stem cells to overcome the limits of islet transplantation. Organized into six parts, this book covers the development and differentiation of beta cells, bioengineering, immunoescape, preclinical model and translational approaches, beta cell replacement, and disease modeling. This is an ideal book for scientists, researchers, and clinicians working in the area of stem cell technology in the treatment of diabetes.weiterlesen
