Biology of Fatty Acids: Biochemical, Nutritional and Pharmacological Functions

Weaver, Robert F

A direct spinoff of the <b>Advances in Enzyme Regulation</b> journal this internationally acclaimed series reports progress at the cutting edge in the strategic area of regulation at the molecular level. In an integrated presentation of original papers, leading scientists, Nobel Prize winners and other outstanding experts from many countries review the best research produced each year and evaluate what is newest and what promises to be the most important in clinical and basic investigations. The volumes serve as guideposts and beacons for investigators in planning research and teaching students in basic and clinical fields of endeavour. These books advance the general front of studies on metabolic regulation and the understanding of the molecular biology of control of gene expression by hormones, drugs and growth factors in cancer cells and in clinical situations of diabetes, inborn errors of metabolism and neoplasia.

<p>Volume 45 of <i>Advances in Enzyme Regulation</i> is the proceedings of the 45th International Synthesis in Normal and Neoplastic Tissues held at Indiana University School of Medicine Indianapolis, Indiana September 27-28, 2004.</p> <p>Volume 45 concentrates on subjects which have reached the stage of productive summarizaiton and critical evaluation in the light of extensive new results. This book also lives up to its goal of advancing a few steps ahead of the general front of mammalian enzymic and metabolic regulation studies.</p>

<p>Praise for the Series: "Timely...High standard of Writing...It is to be highly recommended." --<b><i>Quarterly Journal of Experimental Physiology</i></b></p> <p>This informative publication brings together knowledge of various aspects of cellular regulation. Current Topics in Cellular Regulation reviews the progress being made in those specialized areas of study that have undergone substantial development. It also publishes provocative new theories and concepts and serves as a forum for the discussion of general principles.</p> <p>Researchers in cellular regulation as well as biochemists, molecular and cell biologists, microbiologists, biophysicists, physiologists, nutritionists, and pathologists will find <i>Current Topics in Cellular Regulation</i> a useful source of up-to-date information.</p>
