  • Vitamin A and Retinoids
    Maria A. Livrea
    Rapid progress has been made in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of cell growth and oncogenesis during the past decade. Special attention has been given to the presentation of the frequently neglected close correlation between changes in signal transduction and metabolic pathways during oncogenesis. This book advances the knowledge of mec...

  • Airway Epithelium
    Jonathan Widdicombe
    The airways are lined with a film of fluid 10 ?m deep that acts as the first line of defense against inhaled pathogens, dirt, and noxious vapors. Transepithelial fluid movements driven by active transepithelial ion transport serve to regulate the depth of this 'airway surface liquid'. In the larger airways, a mucus gel derived from both glands and surface epithelium entraps inh...

  • The Tapetum
    The anther tapetum, present in all land plants, is a highly specialized, transient tissue surrounding the (micro-)spores and/or pollen grains during their development. Any tapetum malfunction causes male sterility. The exact knowledge of tapetum form and function therefore is indispensable not only for basic research, but also and especially in plant ...
