Description for Peptide Research Protocols
Hardback. Describes reproducible methods to investigate various aspects of the endothelin system from its synthesis and metabolism, to its function in health and disease. These methods use molecular techniques to quantify the expression of mRNA for both endothelin receptors and the endothelin converting enzymes. Editor(s): Maguire, Janet J.; Davenport, Anthony P. Series: Methods in Molecular Biology. Num Pages: 242 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MFN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 228 x 152 x 19. Weight in Grams: 553.
The endothelins are a remarkable family of signaling peptides: molecular biology predicted the existence of their receptors and synthetic enzymes prior to both the identification of the encoded proteins and the synthesis of antagonists and inhibitors for use as pharmacological tools. Although considerable advances have been made, culminating in the design of endothelin antagonists with the- peutic potential in cardiovascular disease, much remains to be discovered. Tantalizingly, new research frontiers are emerging. To support further progress, Peptide Research Protocols: Endothelin encompasses experimental protocols that interrogate all facets of an endogenous mammalian peptide s- tem, from peptide and receptor expression through ...

Reviews for Peptide Research Protocols
"This book is excellent for what it intends to be: to provide a coherent series of protocols on a focused topic. It efficiently integrates biochemical, pharmacological, physiological and molecular biological methods..." -Acta Cardiologica
