About this Item

Neuware -Cell communication and signaling are essential functions for life. The topic encompasses all basic and translational aspects of cellular communication and signaling pathways in normal and pathological conditions. Many diseases are the result of dysfunction in cell communication and signaling. This book presents contributions ranging from studies of sensory transduction, membrane receptors, ion channels, protein modification, cell transformation, receptor internalization, and trafficking to disease-oriented studies focusing on neurodegenerative diseases or cancer. As such, the book will provide a gateway for newly interested investigators and serve as a resource for seasoned researchers of cell biological phenomena in health and disease. Targeted at students and researchers in biological, medical, and chemical disciplines, this book will provide an overview of the work that is being done on this cell biology topic. The book highlights any gaps and areas that would benefit from further exploration pertaining to both intracellular and intercellular cell communication and signaling. In addition, the book will contribute to the training of current and future cell biologists.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 200 pp. Englisch.
