About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This volume in the popular Methods in Molecular Biology series provides a snapshot of research techniques and protocols for identifying and culturing these amazing tissue-specific stem cells. … The book is written for basic science and clinical researchers interested in stem cell biology, as well as mechanisms of carcinogenesis and malignancy. It also will be valued by biomedical scientists and clinicians interested in cytotechnology and biotechnology. … The topic is fascinating and clinically relevant. I enjoyed learning about antigen-priming dendritic cells.” (Bruce A. Fenderson, Doody’s Review Service, August, 2010)Editors and Affiliations
