Autologous and Cancer Stem Cell Gene Therapy
Stem cells provide for life-long cell replacement in tissues and organs, and have inherent homing abilities that are critical in therapeutic applications. Stem cells are also the driving force of cancer where genetic/epigenetic alterations culminate in tumorigenesis either in tissue stem cells or in some of their derivatives. As a rare subset of the tumor, cancer stem cells are the only drive of tumor initiation/propagation. Autologous and cancer stem cells are thus the key targets of 1) long-term and transient-regenerative/epigenetic gene therapy and 2) of recurrence-free anticancer therapy, respectively. While cancer stem cell gene therapy still needs time to accomplish, autologous stem ce...
The Biology and Therapeutic Application of Mesenchymal Cells, 2 Volume Set
The Biology and Therapeutic Application of Mesenchymal Cells comprehensively describes the cellular and molecular biology of mesenchymal stem cells and mesenchymal stromal cells, describing their therapeutic potential in a wide variety of preclinical models of human diseases and their mechanism of action in these preclinical models. Chapters also discuss the current status of the use of mesenchymal stem and stromal cells in clinical trials in a wide range of human diseases and disorders, for many of which there are limited, or no other, therapeutic avenues. Provides coverage on both the biology of mesenchymal stem cells and stromal cells, and their therapeutic applications Describes the ther...
The Oxford Handbook of Research Ethics
The development of new pharmaceutical products and behavioral interventions aimed at improving people's health, as well as research that assesses the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of public policies, such as policies designed to improve children's education or reduce poverty, depends on research conducted with human participants. It is imperative that research with human subjects is conducted in accordance with sound ethical principles and regulatory requirements. Featuring 45 original essays by leading research ethicists, The Oxford Handbook of Research Ethics offers a critical overview of the ethics of human subjects research within multiple disciplines and fields, including biomedicine, public health, psychiatry, sociology, political science, and public policy.
Progress in Gene Therapy
Gene Therapy is expected to revolutionize the practice of medicine at the turn of the third Millennium. Therapeutic/prophylactic benefits should arise from both gene transfer and gene repair/inactivation protocols devised for patient's somatic cells. Gene expression cassettes, designed for the production of therapeutic proteins and non-coding RNA, are thus experimented together with emerging gene repair/inactivation techniques on a variety of inherited, acquired and infectious/parasitic diseases, including complex neuro-degenerative processes. This book presents a collection of chapters on the main aspects of Gene Therapy, some of which have already been treated in the past, and updates and ...
