Tissue-Specific Cell Signaling

by Joana Vieira Silva Maria João Freitas Margarida Fardilha

Signal transduction comprises the intracellular biochemical signals which induce the appropriate cell response to an external stimulus. The players in signal transduction are diverse, from small molecules as first messengers, to proteins, receptors, transcription factors, among many others. The different signaling pathways and the crosstalk between them originates the unique signaling profile of every cell type in the human body. The cell signaling specificity depends on several aspects including protein composition, subcellular localization and complexes and gene promoters.This textbook provides a comprehensive overview of the specific signaling pathways on a variety of human tissues. This information can be of great value for health science researchers, professionals and students to understand key pathways for tissue-specific functions in the plethora of signals, signals receptors, transducers and effectors.Chapter 3 and 15 are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.

The aim is to stimulate the reader to look at future advances and applications of research and their relevance to daily clinical practice in plastic surgery. Appropriate for different sub-specialties not only in plastic surgery (breast, face, esthetic, hand, microsurgery chapters) but also in orthopedics (hand, microsurgery, nerve chapters) and neurosurgery (peripheral nerve chapter), this book will also be of great interest to trainee surgeons.

Tissue Type Plasminogen Activity: Volume I

by Cornelius Kluft

This book is made possible by the enthusiastic contributions of the authors of the chapters. They have been invited from young and active scientists in the field of t-PA research. I am grateful for their contribution and for the fact that all accepted the specifications of their chapter in order to obtain a structured book. Inevitably, some overlap does exist; on the one hand to enable controversial or unsettled areas to be discussed by the different experts with a different approach and background.It is a particular pleasure and honor that Dr. T. Astrup, as an eye-witness and essential contributor to the history of t-PA discovery and research, gives a unique account of the history of t-PA research in the first chapter of the book.

The Title of 9780909090812 (DS Cross Chronicles: A Short Story #2)

by Tim Sullivan

An exclusive short story from the DS Cross Thriller series, based on a true case. A cold case. A cremated body. A killer brought to justice. David North was convicted of murdering of his fiance. To the rest of the courtroom, it was an open-and-shut case. But as DS George Cross sees the man smile as he's led away from sentencing, he becomes certain something crucial had been missed. After all, two partners dead within six years of each other couldn't be a coincidence. What really happened to North's ex-wife? As Cross takes on this new cold case, he encounters an insurmountable obstacle: the body he's looking into has been cremated. 'I am insanely in love with George Cross, a perfect detective for our time and for all time' Stephen Fry 'Sullivan has given us a British detective for the 21st century who will be hard to forget' Daily Mail

TMD and Orthodontics: A clinical guide for the orthodontist

by Sanjivan Kandasamy Charles S. Greene Donald J. Rinchuse John W. Stockstill

This evidence-based book, featuring contributions from world-renowned experts, discusses in detail the functional anatomy of the temporomandibular joint as well as the aetiology, diagnosis, treatment and medicolegal implications of patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD).Despite advances in our understanding of the aetiology of TMD and in developing current treatment rationales, a number of issues remain controversial. These include the extent to which the temporomandibular joint should be a central focus of orthodontic diagnosis and treatment, as well as the role that occlusion and malocclusion play in precipitating TMD symptoms. Indeed, few subjects in dentistry and the specialty of orthodontics are open to as many interpretations or misinterpretations as TMD. This textbook provides clinical orthodontists with essential information and guidance that will assist them in understanding and effectively managing this complex multilayered problem. Throughout, clear clinical guidelines are presented on the basis of current scientific and clinical evidence. TMD and Orthodontics will be a highly valuable chairside resource for orthodontists everywhere.
