Stem Cells in Clinical Applications brings some of the field’s most renowned
scientists and clinicians together with emerging talents and disseminates their
cutting-edge clinical research to help shape future therapies. While each book tends
to focus on regenerative medicine for a certain organ or system (e.g. Liver, Lung and
Heart; Brain and Spinal Cord, etc.) each volume also deals with topics like the
safety of stem cell transplantation, evidence for clinical applications, including
effects and side effects, guidelines for clinical stem cell manipulation and much
more. Volumes will also discuss mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in
autoimmune disease treatment, stem cell gene therapy in pre-clinical and clinical
contexts, clinical use of stem cells in neurological degenerative disease, and best
practices for manufacturers in stem cell production. Later volumes will be devoted
to safety, ethics and regulations, stem cell banking and treatment of cancer and
genetic disease. This series provides insight not only into novel research in stem
cells but also their clinical and real-world contexts. Each book in Stem Cells in
Clinical Applications is an invaluable resource for advanced undergraduate students,
graduate students, researchers and clinicians in Stem Cells, Tissue Engineering,
Biomedical Engineering or Regenerative Medicine.

Preface
Stem cell therapy is a new therapy used in the treatment of various diseases.
Since the first transplant of a primary product of stem cells in the 1950s, s tem-
cell-based products have a long history. After more than 60 years of development,
stem-cell- based products can be grouped into six different generations, including
stem-cell- enriched fractions (first generation), pure stem cells (second
generation), long-term expanded allogeneic stem cells (third generation),
genetically modified or differentiated stem cells (fourth generation), exosomes,
extracellular vesicles, and stem cell extracts (fifth generation), and stem cells
derived from tissues or organs (sixth generation). Since the third generation,
stem-cell-based products used as drugs in the treatment of various diseases have
been referred to as stem cell drugs.
To date, stem cell drugs of the third, fourth, and fifth generations are being used
in clinics and commercially in several countries. Stem cell drugs have opened a
new age of regenerative medicine. This book focuses on stem cell drugs of the
third, fourth, and fifth generations of stem-cell-based products. In chapters 1–5, we
introduce fifth-generation stem-cell-based products containing extracellular
microvesicles obtained from stem cells. Chapters 1, 2, and 4 introduce some
applications of microvesicles as cell-based, cell-free therapy in disease treatment
and rejuvenation. Chapters 3 and 5 introduce some techniques to prepare and trigger
microvesicle production from mesenchymal stem cells. In chapters 6–8, we focus
on the third and fifth generations of stem-cell-based products. Chapter 6 introduces
the evolution of stem cell products, while chapter 7 focuses on off-the-shelf
mesenchymal stem cell technology. Chapter 8 presents some ethical and legal
issues of cord blood stem cell banks.
In preparing this book, we aimed at making it accessible to not only those
working in the field of stem cell biology, but also to nonexperts with a broad
interest in stem cells and human health. We hope the book will be of value to
all concerned with the new generation of stem-cell-based products, including
stem cell drugs.
