  • Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells in Brain Diseases

    Understanding the Methods, Epigenetic Basis, and Applications for Regenerative Medicine.

    by Vivi M. Heine, Stephanie Dooves, Dwayne Holmes, Judith Wagner ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Brain diseases can have a large impact on patients and society, and treatment is often not available. A new approach in which somatic cells are reprogrammed into induced pluripotent cells (iPS cells) is a significant breakthrough for regenerative medicine. This promises patient-specific tissue for replacement therapies, as well as disease-specific cells for developmental modeling and drug ... Read more

  • Trinucleotide Diseases and Instability

    Edited by Ben A. Oostra ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Till recently, mutations in genes were described in textbooks as deletions or point mutations. These mutations can be inherited from a parent or they are de novo alterations. The discovery in 1991 that human disease can be caused by large-scale ex pansion of highly unstable trinucleotide repeats has elucidated a new mutation mechanism, heritable unstable DNA. In the subsequent years more then 10 ... Read more

  • Stem Cell Biology in Neoplasms of the Central Nervous System

    Edited by Moneeb Ehtesham ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This volume presents the most current reviews on how cancer stem cells (CSCs) hypothesis dictates that the continued proliferation of a tumor is dependent on a sub-population of self-renewing and asymmetrically dividing neoplastic stem cells that supply a largely differentiated tumor. This volume provides a comprehensive overview of the characteristics of CSCs, their role in central nervous system ... Read more
