Ceramide Signaling
The volume assembles current information on the role of ceramide as a signalling molecule in 16 chapters written by leading workers in this area. Specific attention is given to mechanisms of analysis of ceramide and its biophysical properties, on enzymes of ceramide metabolism and down-stream targets of ceramide, on the cross-talk of ceramide signalling with other signalling pathways, and on the role of ceramide in neuronal signalling. Finally, the book closes with a section on the therapeutic implications of ceramide action, in the areas of cannabinoid action, chemotherapy, and atherosclerosis, and illustrates the potential medical significance of delineating the roles of ceramide in cell signalling. This is the first volume specifically devoted to ceramide signalling, and will act as an invaluable resource for basic and medical researchers and graduate students wishing to get a state of the art overview of this rapidly moving field.
Reactivation of the Cell Cycle in Terminally Differentiated Cells
This volume deals with the most advanced areas of reactivation of the cell cycle in terminally differentiated cells. Terminally differentiated cells have long been regarded as irreversibly unable to proliferate. However, this view is being overturned, with great implications for both biological knowledge and potential therapeutic applications. The basic science is presented in detail and the potentialities for exploitation in cell replacement therapy and tissue repair are highlighted. For the first time, large parts of this research field are covered in a single resource, contributed by scientists who have given the most to its advancement in recent years. This volume will be valuable for young scientists wishing to enter this field and will serve as an authoritative reference for those already working in it.
The CDK-Activating Kinase (CAK)
This volume aims to extract and summarize all information about CAK by pointing out commonly accepted facts and unresolved issues. It takes the reader from yeast to mammals and describes all areas that CAK is thought to be involved in. This volume is designed to serve newcomers to the field as well as specialists; any person interested in cell growth, signal transduction and cancer will find this a useful tool to own.
