The Multiple Facets of Kisspeptin Activity in Biological Systems
In 1996 a cDNA called KISS1 (KI in reference to the place of discovery-Hershey Pennsylvania, home of the famous Hershey Chocolate Kisses- and SS as suppressor sequence) was identified in non-metastatic melanoma cell lines. Its 54 amino-acid product, Kisspeptin-54 (Kp-54), was originally called metastin for its ability to inhibit cancer metastasis through the activation of a G coupled receptor, previously known as GPR54 and currently renamed the Kisspeptin receptor (KISS1R). Shorter active peptides all capable of binding to KISS1R have been identified and the physiological activities of these Kisspeptins are now known to extend not only to the suppression of metastasis. Kisspeptins currently ...
Methods in Reproductive Aquaculture
The large amount of information on fish reproduction available is not always readily accessible to all interested parties. Written to appeal to aquaculturalists, conservation managers, and scientific researchers, Methods in Reproductive Aquaculture provides an overview of available techniques and addresses ways to improve depleted stocks of endange
Contributions of Zoos and Aquariums to the Advancement of Marine Science
As zoological organizations evolve in the twenty-first century to address the biodiversity extinction crisis, and proactively demonstrate relevance in a changing public opinion landscape, their conservation science portfolios continue to expand. Public zoos and aquariums address these issues directly by conducting both ex- and in-situ research designed to advance our understanding of species while also detecting, diagnosing, and halting population declines in the wild. In particular, the distinct nature of zoological organizations uniquely positions them to make significant contributions to marine science. The ability to care for and access a diverse suite of marine species provides the oppo...
Shifting States in Global Markets
Shifting States in Global Markets contributes to the debates over the political economy of globalization by focusing attention on the increasingly important role of subnational governments in implementing economic policies. Challenging the view that the effects of decentralization are positive or negative uniformly and can be explained by reference to the influence of national political institutions, Alfred Montero uses his comparisons of industrial policy in Brazil and Spain, and between different regions in these countries, to argue that we need to pay attention to political conditions at the subnational level to account for the variation in economic success between regions. Two crucial co...
Cellular and Molecular Approaches in Fish Biology
Cellular and Molecular Approaches in Fish Biology is a highly interdisciplinary resource to bring industry professionals, students and researchers up-to-date with the latest developments and information on fish biology research combining a historical overview of the different research areas in fish biology and detailed descriptions of cellular and molecular approaches with explanations and recommendations for research. The book presents a global perspective of each research area with detailed analytical methodologies on the cellular and molecular mechanisms within fish biology for expermentation. The book provides different points of view on how researchers have addressed timely issues, whil...
The Eighteenth-Century Theatre in Spain
Previously published as a special issue of The Bulletin of Spanish Studies, The Eighteenth-Century Theatre in Spain is the second in a series of research bibliographies on the Theatre in Spain. Representing ten years of searches and compilation by its specialist authors, this volume draws together data on more than 1,500 books, articles and documents concerned with Spanish eighteenth-century theatre. Studies of plays and playwrights are included as well as material dealing with theatres, actors and stagecraft. Wherever possible, items listed have been personally examined, and their library location in Britain, Spain or USA is provided. Scholars with interests in drama will find in this single-volume work of reference a wealth of reliable information concerning this specialist field.
