Synopsis

Keynote speakers at the cell signaling meeting in Luxembourg have provided chapters on hypoxia signal transduction, phosphoserine/threonine-binding domains, targeting of polycomb repressive complexes, conserved signaling mechanisms in innate immunity, and signal transduction by stress-activated MAP kinases. Other topics included among these reports on recent research are receptor signaling, protein kinase cascades as therapeutic targets, cell death in cancer, inflammation-specific signaling, cell signaling pathways leading to regulated chromatin modifications, and transcriptional control.

The chapters have been published in four volumes (Part A to D), offering a comprehensive overview about this exciting topic.

This third volume focuses on the therapeutic potential for targeting cell signaling mechanisms with particular attention to cell signaling in healthy systems as well as in disease. Cancer therapies and the important area of chemoprevention are included.
