Regenerative Medicine for Degenerative Muscle Diseases (Stem by Martin K. Childers

By Martin K. Childers

This e-book compiles and
explores state-of-the-art learn in degenerative skeletal problems, such as
Duchenne muscular dystrophy and congenital myopathy, and new stem-cell based
therapies and gene alternative remedy. Twelve expertly-authored chapters navigate
the nuances of those remedies in an array of contexts and organic systems.
The issues coated comprise: How are urine cells from a sufferer with Duchenne
muscular dystrophy reworked into beating middle cells? What can reprogrammed
cells let us know approximately middle muscle failure? What do gene mutations suggest for those
born with a muscle ailment? How are production tools utilized to human stem
cells? Does healing workout gain these sufferers who obtain engineered
limb muscle? Is there useful suggestion approximately meals to augment muscle
function for the Duchenne sufferer? Can microRNAs be invaluable to regenerate
diseased muscle?

 Regenerative
Medicine for Degenerative Muscle Diseases
is perfect for scientists
and clinicians from various disciplines in genetics, cellphone biology, virology,
cell-based production, rehabilitation medication, foodstuff, veterinary
medicine and neurosurgery. The reader will see how transformative alterations occur
in drugs that could powerfully effect the long run for sufferers affliction from
inherited issues affecting muscular tissues of the physique, together with the heart.
