Insulin-producing Surrogate β-cells From Embryonic Stem Cells: Are We There Yet?
9 Aug 2011
Abstract excerpt
Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) harbor the potential to generate every cell type of the body by differentiation. The use of hESCs holds great promise for potential cell replacement therapies for degenerative diseases including diabetes mellitus. The recently discovered induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) exhibit immense potential for regenerative medicine as they allow the generation of autologous cells tailored...
