Principles of Bone Regeneration is a timely publication that addresses the modern aspects of bone healing and repair.¡This exciting new¡volume details¡the convergence of the different experimental and clinical approaches designed for the study and treatment of bone healing in it…
Increasing evidence suggests that liver stem cells have the capacity to differentiate into parenchymal hepatocytes or into bile ductular cells. These stem cells may be activated to proliferate after severe liver injury or exposure to hepatocarcinogens. Stem cell replacement stra…
"For decades, conservation and research initiatives in tropical forests have focused almost exclusively on old-growth forests because scientists believed that these 'pristine' ecosystems housed superior levels of biodiversity. With Second Growth, Robin L. Chazdon reveals those a…
"This book is dedicated to Metabolic Flux Analysis in systems that can be studied under metabolic steady-state or pseudo-steady-state conditions, also called stationary approaches. Under these conditions the change of intracellular metabolite concentrations (CMET) as a function …
