Hematopoeitic stem cells: past, present and future. 330 $aRecent advances in stem cell biology, nanotechnology and gene therapy have opened new avenues for therapeutics. The availability of molecular therapeutics that rely on the delivery of DNA, RNA or proteins, harnessing enhanced delivery with nanoparticles, and the regenerative potential of stem cells (adult, embryonic or induced pluripotent stem cells) has had a tremendous impact on translational medicine. The chapters in this book cover a range of strategies for molecular and cellular therapies for human disease, their advantages, and central challenges to their widespread application. Potential solutions to these issues are also discussed in detail. Further, the book addresses numerous advances in the field of molecular therapeutics that will be of interest to the general scientific community. Lastly, the book provides specific examples of disease conditions for which these strategies have been transferred to the clinic. As such, it will be extremely useful for all students, researchers and clinicians working in the field of translational medicine and molecular therapeutics. . 606 $aGene therapy 606 $aStem cells 606 $aRegenerative medicine 606 $aTissue engineering 606 $aBiomedical engineering 606 $aMedical genetics 606 $aGene Therapy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B12020 606 $aStem Cells$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16010 606 $aRegenerative Medicine/Tissue Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16080 606 $aBiomedical Engineering/Biotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B24000 606 $aGene Function$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B12030 615 0$aGene therapy. 615 0$aStem cells. 615 0$aRegenerative medicine. 615 0$aTissue engineering. 615 0$aBiomedical engineering. 615 0$aMedical genetics. 615 14$aGene Therapy. 615 24$aStem Cells. 615 24$aRegenerative Medicine/Tissue Engineering. 615 24$aBiomedical Engineering/Biotechnology. 615 24$aGene Function. 676 $a616.042 702 $aJayandharan$b Giridhara R$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298430303321 996 $aGene and Cell Therapy: Biology and Applications$92505682 997 $aUNINA
