Obesity, Smoking, and Fatty Liver Disease
The World Health Organization Organization estimates that over 1.9 billion people worldwide are now obese or overweight [body mass index (BMI) > 27 Kg/m2]. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is now recognized as the most devastating complications of obesity. Intimate relationship exists between obesity, innate (neutrophils, dendritic cells, macrophages, mast cells, and eosinophils) and adaptive (B and T lymphocytes) immune cells. Cells of the innate immune system produce inflammatory cytokines, and other factors leading to impaired insulin secretion and insulin resistance. Likewise, B lymphocytes (mostly B2 cells) are activated in obese adipose tissue and contribute to proinflammatory activation of adipo...
Apoptosis
Apoptosis, or cell death, can be pathological, a sign of disease and damage, or physiological, a process essential for normal health. This book, with contributions from experts in the field, provides a timely compilation of reviews of mechanisms of apoptosis. The book is organized into three convenient sections. The first section explores the different processes of cell death and how they relate to one another. The second section focuses on organ-specific apoptosis-related diseases. The third section explores cell death in non-mammalian organisms, such as plants. This comprehensive text is a must-read for all researchers and scholars interested in apoptosis.
Function of Somatic Cells in the Testis
The papers in this volume represent the proceedings of the XIIth North American Testis Workshop held in Tampa, Florida, April 1993 and put forth recent developments in the study of endocrine and gametogenic functions of the male gonad.
Mammalian Endocrinology and Male Reproductive Biology
Mammalian Endocrinology and Male Reproductive Biology provides comprehensive and current coverage of the area of endocrinology and male reproductive biology, covering not just humans, but mammals in general. Written by international experts in their respective fields, this multi-author book also covers the latest developments in genomics of androge
Sertoli Cell Biology
Sertoli cells assist in the production of sperm in the male reproductive system. This book provides a state-of-the-art update on the topic of sertoli cells and male reproduction. It addresses such highly topical areas as stem cells, genomics, and molecular genetics, as well as provides historical information on the discovery of this type of cell, and the pathophysiology of male infertility. * Presents the state-of-the-art research on topics such as stem cell research, transplantation and genomics* Includes contributions from leaders in the field, including several members of the National Academy of Science

Pharmacology, Biology, and Clinical Applications of Androgens
Pharmacology, Biology, and Clinical Applications of AndrogensCurrent Status and Future Prospects Edited by Shalender Bhasin, Henry L. Gabelnick, Jeffrey M. Spieler,Ronald S. Swerdloff, Christina Wang, and Chuck Kelly As agents that affect the male primary and accessory sex organs,androgens--particularly the hormones testosterone andandrosterone--play a critical role in the development,functionality, and overall health of the male reproductive system.However, since androgens also have far-ranging effects onmetabolism, neurological activity, and behavior, scientistsexploring the contraceptive or therapeutic potential of androgensneed reliable, up-to-date information on the complex biologicalac...
Stem Cell Culture
The purpose of Stem Cell Culture is to provide a comprehensive resource for researchers in the fields of embyonic, fetal and adult stem cell biology to find methods for the purification, culture, and differentitation of these cell types, with the main emphasis on the maintenance of the stem cell phenotype in vitro. This volume will be the first to broadly cover multiple types of stem cell culture from different ages, organs and species. Authors will focus on the practical do's and don'ts of isolating and culturing these cell types, and feel free to use illustrative data or diagrams whereever this improves the comprehension of the reader. This should allow the reader to compare and contrast techniques and make this a standard reference for those in the field, or desiring to start stem cell culture. - Describes techniques in stem cell research - Delineates critical steps and potential pitfalls for each method - Covers specific procedures in dealing with Human Embryonic Stem Cells
