Om denne e-boken

Stem Cells and Signaling Pathways provides mechanistic insights into the role of stem cells to combat the COVID-19 outbreak and other pathologies where a cytokine storm is the cause of concern for e.g., radiation exposure, multiple organ failure and sepsis. The advent of SARS-CoV-2 resulted in a global pandemic, putting individuals with other comorbidities at a higher risk of infection. The whole world witnessed a massive shortage of medical and other essential supplies needed to combat the virus. That said, stem cell therapy has emerged as a potential treatment for viral diseases, including but not limited to COVID-19. Interestingly, the clinical trials in the patients having COVID-19 complications depicted faster recovery in patients post mesenchymal stem cells therapy owing to the decreased cytokines levels, anti-viral effects and regeneration of the infected tissue. - Provides a compilation of chapters dedicated to the study of the field with respect to properties of stem cells and their signaling pathways. It also provides detailed information on signaling pathways associated with stem cells - Provides a detailed and updated view of stem cell biology - Covers a wide range of areas within basic and translational research appropriate for scientists and clinicians engaged in studying the treatments for diseases from interdisciplinary perspectives - Highlights the use of different models for stem cell research, significance of stem cell signaling in drug discovery
