Fundamental insights into cellular development, lineage commitment, and regenerative signaling are driving innovations in therapy and tissue engineering. Stem cell biology and applications examine the core mechanisms that regulate self-renewal, differentiation, and environmental responses of both embryonic and adult stem cells. These insights enable scientists to manipulate cell fate decisions for therapeutic purposes while ensuring safety and functional integration. The applications extend into disease modeling, drug discovery, and regenerative procedures, where stem cells are used to generate tissue analogs or correct genetic anomalies. Advances in organoid technology, scaffold-free assembly, and immune-privileged transplant strategies continue to widen the scope. With increasing understanding of stem cell niches and epigenetic landscapes, stem cell biology and applications are transitioning from experimental paradigms to clinical utility, offering viable solutions for neurodegenerative, hematological, and cardiovascular disorders.
