Product Description:
Specifically it will cover molecular basis for hematopoietic stem cell commitment and terminal differentiation. Recent discoveries in role of transcription factors and the influence of cytokines will be discussed in the context of human and mouse hematopoietic lineages. In addition signal transduction pathways regulating proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis will be presented in the volume. Finally, the volume will cover recent advances in targeting signal transduction pathways in treatment of hematopoietic disease, including utilization of hematopoietic cells in the clinical setting.

Product Description:
Hematology is difficult to teach at the medical school level. The curriculum is necessarily fragmented across different years of study, and often separated considerably in time. Understanding hematology requires insight into several distinct aspects: applied physiology (generally taught early), an understanding of the essential pathological processes involving the blood are taught somewhat later (if at all), and the (necessarily) strong laboratory aspect is generally taught more or less concurrently with other clinical pathology topics, such as clinical chemistry and immunology.

Product Description:
As regenerative medicine involves replacing diseased cells, tissues or organs, or repairing tissues in vivo, the manipulation of stem cells underlie its goals. In Stem Cells in Regenerative Medicine: Methods and Protocols, leading experts in the field provide an updated representation of the landscape of stem cell-based therapies in a wide spectrum of tissue systems and ontogenic stages, from the isolation and culture of stem cells to their actual use in vivo. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, these chapters include brief introductions to the topic, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, readily reproducible, step-by-step laboratory protocols, and tips for troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Product Description:
Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) is defined as any of a large group of cancers of the immune system. NHL's can occur at any age and patients are often marked by enlarged lymph nodes, fever, and weight loss. There are many different types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which can be divided into aggressive (fast-growing) and indolent (slow-growing) types and can be classified as either B-cell or T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
