最近浏览期刊,发现2008年Cell杂志有一期干细胞研究的综述,内容非常全面,感觉对大家非常有用,可以作为教材来研究学习。下载时把文章的补充材料也下下来,供大家学习。1 Y9 a+ c9 d7 ?8 W7 D! ^
Stem cells have two remarkable abilities: they can self-renew to keep the stem cell pool replenished, and* ?: b- z" ?# M$ u5 x! P, B* f6 m
they can differentiate into a wide variety of cell types. This stunning biological duality intrigues not only

also those who seek to use stem cells therapeutically to replace lost or damaged tissue. But when did

and James E. Till, launched the field of stem cell research with their groundbreaking work on the hematopoietic! p, t' c5 u- R. r

The field of stem cell research has come a long way in 50 years, as we hope will be apparent from this! h! l! h! x6 D/ _
