Human iPSC-derived Disease Models for Drug Discovery

Human iPSC-derived Disease Models for Drug Discovery

Human iPSC-derived Disease Models for Drug Discovery (Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology 281), edited by Markus H. Kuehn and Wei Zhu, is an advanced reference for understanding the role of induced pluripotent stem cells in modern drug discovery. This book highlights how iPSC technology has transformed biomedical research, enabling the study of disease models, cell therapy, and regenerative medicine.

With contributions from experts in the field, the text explains how iPSC can generate specialized cells such as neurons and cardiomyocytes that are difficult to obtain from patients. It further explores the use of gene editing, 3 dimensional printing, and materials science in creating organoids that mimic complex disease conditions. These innovations have opened new opportunities in drug screening, toxicity testing, and personalized medicine, supporting both clinical applications and translational medicine.
