This is the first experimental protocol book that covers the differentiation of bone marrow derived stem cell (BMSC) into specific cell type, targeted at the undergraduate and graduate student level. The 19 chapters deal with the differentiation methods using small molecules, cytokines and polymeric scaffolds. BMSCs are pluripotential in that they not only act as myelo-regenerative and supportive cells, but can also differentiate into almost kinds of cells in our body. In addition, when implanted in vivo, they could help repair multiple tissue such as blood vessels, heart, liver and so on. ...

Millions of patients suffer from end-stage organ failure or tissue loss annually, and the only solution might be organ and/or tissue transplantation. To avoid poor biocompatibility-related problems and donor organ shortage, however, around 20 years ago a new, hybridized method combining cells and biomaterials was introduced as an alternative to whole-organ and tissue transplantation for diseased, failing, or malfunctioning organs--regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. This handbook focuses on all aspects of intelligent scaffolds, from basic science to industry to clinical...
