In the central nervous system, extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules, including hyaluronic acid, chondroitin and heparan sulfate proteoglycans, tenascins, reelin and agrin, along with their remodelling enzymes, such as neurotrypsin, neuropsin, plasminogen activators, and metalloproteinases, are secreted by neural and non-neural cells into the extracellular space to form the ECM and signal via ECM receptors.
Virus Structure describes the physical characteristics of isolated viruses that represent typical structural groups, with particular reference to those features analyzed with the aid of the electron microscope.
Microbial Genomics: Host Adaptation, Virulence, and Evolution covers different aspects of microbial genomics, metagenomics, and functional studies of microbes that have provided a significant understanding of microbial-host interactions, virulence function, host adaptation mechanisms, including microbial evolution.
Concepts and techniques in genomics and proteomics covers the important concepts of high-throughput modern techniques used in the genomics and proteomics field.
Biobanks represent an invaluable research tool and, as a result of their intrinsic and extrinsic nature, may be looked upon as archives or repositories largely made up of libraries, or collections of content where the content is the biological material derived from different individuals or species, representing valuable tangible assets.
As more and more so-called experts challenge what the Bible says about the creation of man, we must take aim with straightforward, Christ-centered answers.
This book takes a reproductive justice approach to argue that surrogacy as practised in the contemporary neoliberal biomarkets crosses the humanitarian thresholds of feminism.
This encyclopaedia is unique in the sense that it presents contemporary ecology and environment in a chronological order for the first timer Not only it helps trace the process of evolution of regulatory framework for the global and national environmental legislations, it helps the readers to evaluate the development of national environmental consciousness vis-a vis the international one.
This book provides a comprehensive exploration of plant functional traits and their critical role in understanding and predicting ecosystem functions in response to environmental changes.
