Signal Transduction, 2/e is written by Bastien D. Gomperts, University College, London, United Kingdom; Ijsbrand M. Kramer, University of Bordeaux, Talence; France Peter E.R. Tatham, University College, London, United Kingdom; and, Miranda Gomperts. Key features of this title include: up-to-date, inclusive coverage of targeting transduction pathways for research and medical intervention; in-depth coverage of nuclear receptors, including steps in isolation of steroid hormones and the discovery of intracellular hormone receptors, Tyrosine protein kinases and adaptive immunity, and intracellular calcium; extensive conceptual colour artwork to assist with comprehension of key topics; and, instrumental margin notes that highlight milestones in signalling mechanisms. "SignalTransduction" is a thorough, well-illustrated study in cellular signaling processes. Beginning with the basics, this book shows how cells respond to external cues, hormones, growth factors, cytokines, cell surfaces, etc., and furtherinstructs how these inputs are integrated. Instruction continues with up-to-date, inclusive coverage of intracellular calcium, nuclear receptors, tyrosine protein kinases and adaptive immunity, and targeting transduction pathways forresearch and medical intervention. "Signal Transduction" serves as an invaluable resource for advanced undergraduates, graduate researchers, and established scientists working in cell biology, pharmacology, immunology, and related fields
