Translating Regenerative Medicine to the Clinic reviews the possibilities of current methodological tools and experimental approaches used by leading translational researchers. It features the uses of regenerative medicine for different disease treatment areas organized by organ and tissue areas, including cardiovascular disease, muscle regeneration and regeneration of the bone and skin. Pedagogically, the work concentrates on the latest knowledge, laboratory techniques, and experimental approaches used by translational research leaders in this field. The book promotes cross-disciplinary communication between the sub-specialities of medicine, but in common with the rest of the books in Translational Medicine, remains unified in theme by emphasizing recent innovations, critical barriers to progress and the new tools that are being used to overcome them, and specific areas of research that require additional study to advance the field as a whole. Volumes in the Series Volume I: Translating Gene Therapy to the Clinic. Reviews the latest research in gene transfer, genome engineering and clinical trials, as gene-based therapeutic techniques move from the lab to the clinic. Volume II: Translating Regenerative Medicine to the Clinic. Describes regenerative medicine and stem cell biology as both transition from applied biology to clinical translation. Volume III: Translating MicroRNAs to the Clinic. Outlines the new uses of microRNA for clinical application across the full spectrum of targeting, biomarkers and active treatment. Volume IV: Translating Biomarkers to the Clinic. Comprehensively reviews modern research in translational biomarkers, for therapeutic evaluation of specific diseases. Volume V: Translating Epigenetics to the Clinic. Reviews the myriad of translational possibilities in biological epigenetics, from basic science discoveries to current clinical trials of new pharmacoepigenetic therapies. Encompasses the latest innovations and tools being used to develop regenerative medicine in the lab and clinicExtensive pedagogical updates aiming to improve the education of translational researchers in this fieldTransdisciplinary approach aims to support cross-fertilization between different sub-specialties of medicine INDICE: 1.
