The book provides an comprehensive overview on biology, genetics and cellular functions of serpins (serine protease inhibitors) in health and disease. With over 1000 members serpins are the most diverse family of protease inhibitors. Latest groundbreaking research findings are presented and broaden the understanding on inhibitory and non-inhibitory serpins, not only in mammalian organisms but also in insects, worms, plants and viruses.
This reference provides a synthesis of the whole field of vascular biology, from the latest advances in the study of the structure and function of blood vessels to recent investigations of their interaction with blood cells, with non-cellular constituants of the blood, or with cells of the neighbouring tissue. The latest results from tumor angiogenesis to the latest advances in atherosclerosis research are discussed by leading experts in the field. Together with the CD-ROM this guarantees both researchers and clinicians quick and easy access to all relevant information.
Hardbound. International Congress Series 1155These Proceedings will allow the wide dissemination of the present situation in the research on athero-thrombosis. The volume contains review presentations and new advances on all fields related to cardiovascular diseases: lipoprotein metabolism, genetic, epidemiology, vascular biology, thrombosis, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, nutrition, pharmacology, clinical trials, therapy and risk factors
What are living bodies made of? Protein modelers tell us that our cells are composed of millions of proteins, intricately folded molecular structures on the scale of nanoparticles. Proteins twist and wriggle as they carry out the activities that keep cells alive. Figuring out how to make these unruly substances visible, tangible, and workable is a challenging task, one that is not readily automated, even by the fastest computers. Natasha Myers explores what protein modelers must do to render three-dimensional, atomic-resolution models of these lively materials. Rendering Life Molecular shows that protein models are not just informed by scientific data: model building entangles a modeler’s ...
