## Abstract A new class of biomimetic, bioresorbable apatitic calcium phosphate cement (CPC) was recently developed. The handling characteristics, and the ability to harden at body temperature in the presence of physiological saline, make this material an attractive clinical bone substitute and del
## Abstract ## Background Inhibition of tumorโinduced angiogenesis may restrict tumor growth and metastasis. Longโterm systemic delivery of angiogenic inhibitors is associated with toxicity, as well as other severe sideโeffects. The utility of cells as vehicles for gene therapy to deliver therapeu
Neural stem cells (NSC) are a valuable model system for understanding the intrinsic and extrinsic controls for self-renewal and differentiation choice. They also offer a platform for drug screening and neurotoxicity studies, and hold promise for cell replacement therapies for the treatment of neurod
