Description for Neural Stem Cells for Brain and Spinal Cord Repair
Hardback. Surveys neural stem cells (NSCs) as potential tools for central nervous system and spinal cord repair by explaining their clinically significant fundamental properties, manipulations, and potential therapeutic paradigms. This work also presents strategies that may lead to fruitful clinical applications in the near future. Editor(s): Zigova, Tanja; Snyder, Evan Y.; Sanberg, Paul R. Series: Contemporary Neuroscience. Num Pages: 434 pages, 1 black & white illustrations, 53 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PSAN; PSF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 229 x 152 x 27. Weight in Grams: 884.
Active neuroscientists survey NSCs as potential tools for central nervous system and spinal cord repair by explaining their clinically significant fundamental properties, manipulations, and potential therapeutic paradigms. Their discussion of the fundamental biology of NSCs illustrates the signaling pathways that regulate stem cell division and differentiation, and defines the methods of NSC expansion and propagation, neuromorphogenesis, the factors determining cell fate both in vitro and in situ, and the induction of self-reparative processes within the brain. They also present strategies that may lead to fruitful clinical applications in the near future. These range from the replacement of degenerated, dysfunctional, or ... Read more

Reviews for Neural Stem Cells for Brain and Spinal Cord Repair
"The purpose is to address research protocols and possible future applications of neural stem cells in clinical practice. The author has met the objectives. . .Starting from the basic aspects of cell culturing, this book emphasizes the different available research protocols that are currently being used for possible management of neurological degenerative diseases. In addition, molecular mechanisms of ... Read more
