Comprehensive Hematology and Stem Cell Research is the first major reference to cover both stem cell research and therapy as well as the range of hematological disorders they are currently used to treat and may potentially be able to treat in the future. This five volume set includes fundamentals, such as the underlying mechanisms of the blood and immune system, highlighting blood disorders and cancers of the blood, including lymphoma, leukemia, and myeloma. Other sections cover stem cell research and therapy, from harvesting stem cells to their utilization in cancer treatments. Finally, the work looks to the future and explores newer stem cell research that may lead to future treatments. This book is an excellent resource for students at the graduate and post-graduate levels, academics, and researchers in the fields hematology, immunology and oncology.
Section 1. Hematological Disorders In this section, hematologic disorders which affect the blood cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, as well as blood-forming organs, including bone marrow, lymph nodes, and spleen will be explained. Hematologic disorders include hemoglobinopathies, anemias, cytopenias, sickle cell disease, myeloproliferative disorders, coagulopathies, and hematologic malignancies. Section 2. Stem Cells and Immunity In this section, stem cells which are undifferentiated cells that can differentiate into various types of cells and proliferate indefinitely to produce more of the same stem cell will be explained. The properties as well as different sources, including embryonic (e.g., mesenchymal stem cells), fetal, adult, and amniotic will be included. Section 3. Advances in Stem Cell Therapy and Regeneration In this section, stem cell therapy and tissue engineering to treat or prevent a disease will be explained. Advantages and disadvantages of current therapeutic modalities as well as breakthrough research and updates on progress in this field will be included.
