Stem cells are the building blocks of the body. They can develop into any of the cells that make up our bodies. This book provides an overview and analysis of developments in stem cell research and therapy.

New nerve cells are generated in the adult brain of mammals, including humans. These new nerve cells originate from cells, referred as neural stem cells. Neural stem cells have the capacity to generate nerve cells and repair the brain. This title features review articles on this topic that went through the peer-review process.

Stem cells are the building blocks of the body. They can develop into any of the cells that make up our bodies. This title provides an overview and an analysis of the developments on the role and functions of the neuronal cells of the adult brain in the physio- and pathology of the nervous system.

Stem cells are the building blocks of the body. They can develop into any of the cells that make up our bodies. Stem cells hold a great deal of hope for the treatment of a broad range of diseases and injuries. This book aims at providing an overview and an analysis of the developments in stem cell research and therapy.

Stem cells are the building blocks of the body. They carry a lot of hope for the treatment of a broad range of diseases and injuries, spanning from neurological diseases and injuries, and spinal cord injuries, to diabetes. This title provides an overview and an analysis of the developments in stem cell research and therapy.

Focuses on stem cell research and regenerative medicine. This book features the developments in this area and encompassing various fields of stem cell research and regenerative medicine, emphasises adult neurogenesis and neural stem cell research and therapy.

This book aims at presenting an overview of the current knowledge of cystatins and molecules of the cystatin superfamily, their structure, physio-and pathological function as well as the direction that research is currently aiming for in developing therapeutic treatments based on cysteine proteinases and related molecules. Its purpose is to give the reader a tool that serves as a reference in the field of protease inhibitor, their physio-and pathological functions and therapeutic potential. It also aims at making accessible to a broader audience, that does not have easy access to scientific publications, a source of knowledge and information. To achieve this goal, the book aims at covering broadly, systematically, concisely, and in depth, the multifacets of the role of cystatins and molecules of the cystatin superfamily in physiopathology, and emphasise on their therapeutic potentials. Figures, self-explanatory schemas and diagrams contribute to clarify and support the data presented.

The brain has a number of nerve cells estimated at a magnitude of 10 to 100 billion, and 1014 to 1015 synapses, and therefore is the most complex organ of the human body. During fetal development the foundations of the brain are laid as billions of neurons form appropriate connections and patterns. This book and CD set covers the subject.
