Artificial Cells, Cell Engineering and Therapy. Woodhead Publishing Series in
Biomaterials
Description:
Artificial cells, cell engineering and therapy are emerging technologies which will make a significant impact
on the future of medicine and healthcare. However, research within the field is vast. This unique book
provides a comprehensive study of the most recent advances in the field and its practical applications.
The first part of the book offers the reader an introduction to the basics of artificial cell technology with
chapters on its origins, design, current status within medicine and future prospects. Part two covers
apoptosis, the use of bone marrow stromal cells in myocardial regeneration together with signalling and
tissue engineering. Part three discusses artificial cells for therapy, procedures for various clinical conditions
and the current status of the discipline within the field. The book concludes with a final section on the role of
artificial cells in medicine with particular focus on the use of artificial cells as blood substitutes and their
potential use in myocardial regeneration, drug delivery and in treating kidney and bowel diseases, diabetes
and cancer.
Artificial cells, cell engineering and therapy is a valuable reference for researchers, students and
practitioners within the field.
