Membrane Fusion Techniques
The critically acclaimed laboratory standard, Methods in Enzymology, is one of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry. Since 1955, each volume has been eagerly awaited, frequently consulted, and praised by researchers and reviewers alike. The series contains much material still relevant today--truly an essential publication for researchers in all fields of life sciences. * * Major topics covered include: * Cell-cell fusion mediated by viruses and viral proteins * Conformational changes of proteins during membrane fusion * Membrane fusion during exocytosis * Intracellular membrane fusion * Membrane fusion in fertilization * Introduction of macromolecules into cells by membrane fusion * Protoplast fusion.
Comprehensive Toxicology
An explosive increase in the knowledge of the effects of chemical and physical agents on biological systems has led to an increased understanding of normal cellular functions and the consequences of their perturbations. The 14-volume Second Edition of Comprehensive Toxicology has been revised and updated to reflect new advances in toxicology research, including content by some of the leading researchers in the field. It remains the premier resource for toxicologists in academia, medicine, and corporations. Comprehensive Toxicology Second Edition provides a unique organ-systems structure that allows the user to explore the toxic effects of various substances on each human system, aiding in providing diagnoses and proving essential in situations where the toxic substance is unknown but its effects on a system are obvious. Comprehensive Toxicology Second Edition is the most complete and valuable toxicology work available to researchers today. Contents updated and revised to reflect developments in toxicology research Organized with a unique organ-system approach Features full color throughout Available electronically on sciencedirect.com, as well as in a limited-edition print version

Methods in Cell Biology
Critically acclaimed for more than 25 years, the Methods in Cell Biology series provides an indispensable tool for the researcher. Each volume is carefully edited by experts to contain state-of-the-art reviews and step-by-step protocols. Techniques are described completely so that methods are made accessible to users.
Secretory Systems and Toxins
This volume deals with the relationships between toxins and one of the most fundamental processes in any living cell - the secretory cycle. The reader will find up-to-date information on secretion, generated by experts in this fast evolving field. In the last decade extensive molecular and cellular studies have exposed the molecular similarity among most known secretory systems. In this book secretion is discussed from its basic mode found in yeast up to its most sophisticated version in neurotransmitter release in nerve terminals. A comprehensive view on the mode of action of toxins which block secretion but also those which cause hyper-activation of exocytosis is provided. This book addresses the issue of toxin action by deciphering the molecular and cellular basis of exocytosis in various organisms and cellular contents.
Molecular Mechanisms of Membrane Fusion
Membrane fusion is an important molecular event which plays a pivotal role in many dynamic cellular processes, such as exocytosis, endocytosis, membrane biogenesis, fertilization, etc. While many reports on the physico-chem1cal process involved in membrane fusion have appeared in the literature and much information has accumulated, there has been no comprehensiv~ meeting of workers in the field. A recent symposium which took place at the Center for Tomorrow, State University of New York at Buffalo, New York, April 27-29, 1987, was the first meeting of its kind to specifically address the molecular mechanisms of membrane fusion. The Symposium consisted of oral, workshop and poster presentatio...
Laboratory Methods in Vesicular and Vectorial Transport
Laboratory Methods in Vesicular and Vectorial Transport describes the procedures used to study the mechanisms of vesicular transport along the secretory and endocytic paths, including electron microscopy, autoradiography, and methods associated with cyto- and immunocytochemistry, genetics, and biochemistry. It investigates vectorial transport to the cisternal space of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER), as well as protein translocation across the ER, strategies for gaining access to the cytoplasm, cell-free analysis of vesicle fusion, the structure of glycoproteins, and the use of cell systems for analysis of vesicular traffic. Organized into seven parts encompassing 20 chapters, this volu...

Molecular and Cell Biological Aspects of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor Disease
New molecular and cell biological approaches in the fields of neurobiology and neuroendocrinology have identified a large number of molecules that can be assigned structurally and functionally to various subcellular structures, such as secretory vesicles, the Golgi complex, the trans-Golgi network, and endosomes. It has become evident that neurons and neuroendocrine cells share many properties, such as the expression of very similar secretory vesicles and molecules, including cell adhesion molecules, neurotransmitters, hormones, neurotransmitter-receptors and hormone-receptors. Various molecules discovered and characterised in basic research have been found to be increasingly applicable for improved diagnosis and therapy of neuroendocrine tumour disease. This volume reviews current research in both basic science and clinical research from the viewpoint of its direct applicability to clinical medicine.
