Regulation of Phosphate and Mineral Metabolism
We are pleased to present to our readers the Proceedings of the Fifth International Workshop on Phosphate and Other Minerals which was held in New York City, New York, U.S.A during September 23-27,1981. It was hosted by Joseph M. Letteri, M.D., Professor of Medicine at the State University of New York at Stonybrook School of Medicine, and Chief, Division of Nephrology, Nassau County Medical Center. As in the previous Workshops, this meeting provided an oppor tunity for interested scientists from interrelated fields, including nephrology, endocrinology, physiology, biochemistry and nutrition, to get together and discuss the recent advances in the field of phosphate and mineral metabolism.

Nitric Oxide and the Kidney
A number of remarkable recent breakthroughs have made the study of nitric oxide one of the most exciting fields in physiology and pathophysiology. This authoritative edited volume reviews the progress to date and opens perspectives to novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. The contributors are leading authorites, in most cases the investigators who have pioneered the ideas explored in the book.
Progression of Chronic Renal Diseases
During the last few years, interest in research on the progression of chronic renal diseases has grown to the extent that this field is now in the mainstream of investigative nephrology. This interdisciplinary volume brings together the latest data from institutes at the forefront of current research. The contents cover a diverse range of topics including apoptosis in renal modeling and remodeling, the role of cytokines, growth factors and macrophages, the metabolism of interstitial collagen and collagenous materials, diabetic nephropathy, and vasoactive substances in renal injury. The use of methodology from morphometry to DNA recombinant technology illustrates the wide range of experimental approaches being adopted. Stimulating and up-to-date, this book is essential reading for nephrologists, biochemists, molecular biologists and all investigators interested in the mechanisms of renal disease progression.
