When a stem cell divides, each new cell has the existing possibility of either to remain a stem cell or become another type of cell with a more specialized function, such as a muscle cell, a red blood cell, a brain cell etc. Stem cells provide new potentials for treating diseases such as Parkinson''s disease, diabetes, and heart diseases. KEY FEATURES: Theoretical approaches, large number of examples and references. Real application scenarios, such as stem cell research project, which require the use of a whole set of drug design tools. Illustrations help readers understand the research methodology easily. Lists of Web resources of important research centers, institutes, and other sources of information.
