This second edition volume expands on the previous edition with updated chapters covering a broader range of tissues and techniques pertaining to stem cell technologies. The chapters also cover topics such as the generation of iPSC-derived cells unique to the individual human genome addressing the possibility of more personalized clinical applications to an individual with a specific degenerative disease; and the use of nanoparticles such as 3D scaffolds and biomaterials as a means of improving stem cell viability after transplantation in the host tissue. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.Cutting-edge and authoritative, Adult Stem Cells: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition introduces insights into personalized medicine in stem cell therapies, and will spark new and innovative procedures relevant to stem cell therapy and tissue engineering.
