The four contributions by Ishibashi et al., Klussmann et al., Zeuthen and Larsen et al. summarize the current knowledge on the molecular mechanisms underlying the short and long term regulation of water channels (AQPs) in...

The book reviews the literature on the regulation of NADPH oxidase, which is controversial in many areas, and refers specifically to relevant publications from the past 4 years. Main topics are catalytical properties, cofactor...

In this second special issue on signal transduction leading specialists in their fields again present overviews of topics related to the highly topicalsubject of signal transduction. The first contribution, by Keppler, deals ...

In recent years, several symposia have been held on subjects relating to the general theme of information processing in the nervous system. It is now widely recognized that this whole field is rapidly developing and changing in...

Having accepted the task to organize, in Amsterdam, an international Congress in behalf of the International Sodety for Neurovegetati'V'e Research such as is held every second year, it occurred to me that it might be worth­...

The renewal of interest in excitatory amino acids in the 1980s has altered the direction of neurobiology. L-Glutamate, widely regarded as a general perpetu­ ator of nonspecific excitation, has become generally regarded as a...

This book constitutes the first comprehensive discussion and collection of facts and functions of unconventional secretory pathways, some of which are of importance in human disease and pathology. The function of ABC ...

xidative stress refers to the cytotoxic consequences of reactive oxy­ O gen species (ROS) which are generated as by-products of normal or aberrant metabolic processes that utilize molecular oxygen, or changes in protection...

Atherosclerosis, the most common disease in humans and also the main cause of death in the Western world, only develops after an intima is formed. The intima is defined as the region of the arterial wall from the endothelial...

This is the only book to specifically combine basic information on molecular biology with current thinking in cardiac development. The authors clearly illustrate that molecular biology has already provided a wealth of new...

The European Workshops on Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology of the Testis have become by now a well-established tradition. Thanks to their special format, the quality of the main lectures and miniposters, and the vivid...

This book presents essential information on the use of the immunodeficient C.B.-17 SCID/SCID mouse for studying human hematopoiesis in vivo. Because of the lack of both humoral and cellular immunity, this mouse can be a unique...

This book is about the phenotypic and functional features of epidermal Langerhans cells in experimental models and in clinical medicine. Langerhans cells, members of the dendritic cell system in the skin, are critically...

This book examines what is known about the molecular biology of multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2 (MEN2). Mutations and alterations in gene expressions and signal transduction are placed in the context of their effects on...

This thesis presents a scalable, generic methodology for microbial phenotype prediction based on supervised machine learning, several models for biological and ecological traits of high relevance, and the deployment in metagenomic datasets. The results...

In his master thesis Thorsten Will proposes the substantial information content of protein complexes involving transcription factors in the context of gene regulatory networks, designs the first computational approaches to predict such complexes as well...

Matthias Kaeding discusses Bayesian methods for analyzing discrete and continuous failure times where the effect of time and/or covariates is modeled via P-splines and additional basic function expansions, allowing the replacement of linear effects by...

The present volume is the results of 6 years' work by our team, during which time 2300 CT scans of the pituitary region were carried out. This was made possible by the close collaboration between physicians and technicians in...

This volume contains the lectures and contributions presented at the International Symposium on Temporal Order held in Bremen, September 17-22, 1984. Temporal order, such as a more or less regularly repeated temporal sequence...

Glutamine is a key aminoacid for the synthesis of numerous biologic­ ally important compounds in mammalian cells and is a carrier form of ammonia. The advance in knowledge on the metabolic significance of this amino acid is...

It is well established that progesterone plays a role in the brain and hypophysis as a facilitator and inhibitor of sexual behavior and gonadotropin release in the female rat (Everett 1961; Caligaris et al. 1971; Brown-Grant...
