Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'Who would believe that so small a space could contain the images of all the universe ' Leonardo da Vinci The last years of the 20th century have found the discipline of Developmental Biology returning to its original position at the forefront of biological re search. This progress can be attributed to the burgeoning knowledge base on molecules and gene families, and to the power of the molecular genetic ap proach. Topping the list of organ systems which have provided the most significant advances would have to be the eye. The vertebrate eye was one of the classic embryologic models, used to demonstrate many important prin ciples, including the concepts of inductive tissue interactions first put forth in the early 1900s. Within the last decade of this century, a return to some of the old questions with the new approaches has put eye development back into the limelight. I find this a highly appropriate topic for a book which aims to spark research for the new millennium. We begin with a chapter that discusses the anatomy of eye development, providing the basic reference information for the chapters that follow. A novel aspect of this introduction is the connection made between develop mental strategies and the eye's optical function. What also emerges from this chapter is the number of important eye structures that have barely been touched by the modern developmental biologist. Work on cornea and ante rior chamber development has lagged behind lens and retina.…

Gebunden. Condition: Sehr gut. Gebraucht - Sehr gut Zustand: Sehr gut, Mängelexemplar, XIV, 288 pp. 37 figs. About this book The power of molecular genetics has recently returned the discipline of Developmental Biology to its original position at the forefront of biological research. The vertebrate eye was one of the classic embryologic models in the early 1900s. Within the last decade of the 20th century, a return to some of the old questions with the new approaches has put eye development back into the limelight. This book provides an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the field. The latest advances in delineating genetic hierarchies for eye development in animals are discussed, as well as their relationship to congenital disorders of the eye which affect humans. Since studies in Drosophila have provided significant insight, chapters on this invertebrate model are included. In addition, a number of related areas are discussed which are unique to this book: developmental anatomy of the eye from the perspective of its optical function, recent advances in understanding how the retina connects to the brain, the role of extracellular matrix and cell adhesion molecules in eye development, and two chapters on eye regeneration in amphibians and fish. Written for developmental biologists; geneticists; ophthalmologists.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Vision is our primary sensory modality, and we are naturally curious as to how the visual system assembles. The visual system is in many ways remarkably simple, a repeating assemblage of neurons and support cells that parse the visual field through precision and redundancy. Through this simplicity the eye has often led the way in our exploration of how an organ is assembled. Eye development has therefore long been a favorite for exploring mechanisms of cell fate choice, patterning and cell signaling.This volume, which is part of the Current Topics in Developmental Biology series, highlights the exceptional advances over the past 20 years. Chapters emphasize our knowledge of transcription factors and how these generate networks to direct the eye field and associated structures. Topics such as cell fate specification are also explored, along with the potential of Drosophila as a model for lens formation and the progress made in using the Drosophila eye to examine planar cell polarity.
