Germline Stem Cells cover

In this comprehensive and cutting-edge book, leading experts explore the parameters that define germline stem cells and the mechanisms that regulate the cell behavior in order to better isolate, characterize and maintain them. The volume begins by providing protocols for germline stem cell identification and regulation in model organisms, and concludes with detailed chapters covering current techniques involving in vitro culture and the applications of the cells.

From the reviews:

"This book provides background information and protocols for identifying, isolating, characterizing, and manipulating … germline stem cells. … This book is written for basic science and clinical researchers … as well as those interested in development and reproductive biology. Biomedical scientists and clinicians … will also appreciate the wealth of new information. … This is an outstanding contribution to the literature in germ cell biology. ... will be valued by all those interested in development of the germ lineage and stem cell biology."
