It's Electric: When Technology Gives a Boost to Stem Cell Science.
Purpose of review: Advanced technologies can aid discoveries in stem cell science in surprising ways. The application of electrokinetic techniques, which use electric fields to interrogate or separate cells, to the study of stem cells has yielded important insights into stem cell function. These techniques probe inherent cell properties, obviating the need for cell-type specific labels.
Recent findings: Analysis of a variety of stem cell types including hematopoietic, mesenchymal and adipose-derived, neural, and pluripotent stem cells by electrokinetic techniques has revealed fate-specific signatures of cells. Distinct inherent cell properties are sufficient for their label-free enrichment without causing cell damage or toxicity.
Summary: The successful application of label-free techniques to the analysis and sorting of stem cells open new avenues for exploring the basic biology of stem cells and optimizing their use in regenerative medicine applications.
期刊介绍:
The goal of this journal is to publish cutting-edge reviews on subjects pertinent to all aspects of stem cell research, therapy, ethics, commercialization, and policy. We aim to provide incisive, insightful, and balanced contributions from leading experts in each relevant domain that will be of immediate interest to a wide readership of clinicians, basic scientists, and translational investigators.
We accomplish this aim by appointing major authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas across the discipline. Section Editors select topics to be reviewed by leading experts who emphasize recent developments and highlight important papers published over the past year on their topics, in a crisp and readable format. We also provide commentaries from well-known figures in the field, and an Editorial Board of internationally diverse members suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research.
