Cell Sources for IPSCs
About This Book
"[A]ddresses how induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can help understand and treat certain infectious diseases. Somatic cells can be reprogrammed into iPSCs by the expression of specific transcription factors. These cells have been transforming biomedical research over the last 15 years. This book will address the advances in research of how iPSCs are being used for the modeling of the pathogenesis of different infectious agents, such as coronavirus, coxsackievirus, influenza virus, herpes simplex virus 1, Toxoplasma gondii, Trypanosoma cruzi, Streptococcus agalactiae, Neisseria meningitidis, Salmonella, and much more. This volume is written for researchers and scientists interested in stem cell therapy, cell biology, regenerative medicine, and infectious diseases and is contributed by world-renowned authors in the field"--Page 4 of cover.
