Stem cell research: Paths to cancer therapies and regenerative medicine
Article Abstract:
The properties of stem cells, their prospective isolation to provide new perspectives in virtually all aspects of medical science are discussed along with their therapeutic potential. The prospective isolation of stem cells and the studies of their biology have led to important new insights into biology, development, tissue regeneration, pathological conditions, cancer and regenerative medicine.
