Stem Cell Therapies for Pets

In recent years, veterinary research has made significant advances in regenerative medicine. Stem cell therapies are opening up new perspectives for the treatment of degenerative diseases, injuries and chronic conditions in companion animals. This book provides a comprehensive and scientifically sound presentation of the current developments, therapeutic options and biological foundations of stem cell medicine in dogs, cats and horses.
In addition to a detailed insight into the cell biological mechanisms, practical applications are described that are important for both veterinarians and pet owners. Particular attention is paid to the diseases that can be treated with stem cells. These include orthopaedic conditions such as osteoarthritis, joint dysplasia and tendon injuries, neurological conditions such as degenerative myelopathy and spinal cord injuries, as well as chronic inflammatory and immune-mediated conditions such as atopic dermatitis and certain forms of autoimmune disease.
An indispensable work for anyone involved in modern regenerative healing methods for pets - whether from a scientific, veterinary or practical perspective.
