✦ Synopsis

A comprehensive resource on the recent developments of stem cell use in wound healing

With contributions from experts in the field, Wound Healing offers a thorough review of the most recent findings on the use of stem cells to heal wounds. This important resource covers both the basic and translational aspects of the field. The contributors reveal the great progress that has been made in recent years and explore a wide range of topics from an overview of the stem cell process in wound repair to inflammation and cancer. They offer a better understanding of the identities of skin stem cells as well as the signals that govern their behavior that contributes to the development of improved therapies for scarring and poorly healing wounds.

Comprehensive in scope, this authoritative resource covers a wealth of topics such as: an overview of stem cell regeneration and repair, wound healing and cutaneous wound healing, the role of bone marrow derived stems cells, inflammation in wound repair, role and function of inflammation in wound repair, and much more. This vital resource:

• Provides a comprehensive overview of stem cell use in wound healing, including both the basic and translational aspects of the field
• Covers recent developments and emerging subtopics within the field
• Offers an invaluable resource to clinical and basic researchers who are interested in wound healing, stem cells, and regenerative medicine
• Contains contributions from leading experts in the field of wound healing and care

Wound Healing offers clinical researchers and academics a much-needed resource written by noted experts in the field that explores the role of stem cells in the repair and restoration of healing wounds.
