Description for Cell Immortalization
Hardback. The term cell immortalization refers to the infinite proliferative potential of a cell population. This book describes a selection of the theoretical hypotheses which have been put forward in various attempts to explain this phenomenon. Editor(s): Macieira-Coelho, Alvaro. Series: Progress in Molecular and Subcellular Biology / Marine Molecular Biotechnology. Num Pages: 215 pages, 2 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: MFGC; MJCL; PSB; PSF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 14. Weight in Grams: 488.
The problem of the long-term proliferation of cells is a seminal one. It has always been a hot subject in biology, a source of far-reaching hypotheses, even more so now when explanations for the mechanisms of cell prolifera tive mortality or immortality seem within our reach. A question which is still debated is whether an infinite division potential can be a normal trait or is always the result of modifications leading to abnormal cell growth and escape from homeostasis. In general, investigators have been advocates of one of the two extremes, universal limited or unlim ited normal proliferative potential. Since ... Read more
