The cell biology of stem cells / edited by Eran Meshorer, Kathrin Plath.

"The Cell Biology of Stem Cells" discusses multiple aspects of stem cell biology, ranging from their basic molecular characteristics to the in vivo stem cell trafficking of adult stem cells and the adult stem-cell niche, and ends with a visit to regeneration and cell fate reprogramming. It...
