Description for Integration of Metabolism, Energetics, and Signal Transduction
Hardback. Demonstrates how metabolism and energetics are directly linked to those signal transduction pathways that are essential to survival of the cell, the organism, and the species. This book explores recurring patterns of interaction among metabolism, energetics, and signal transduction are fundamental in diverse aspects of human health and disease. Series: Bioengineering, Mechanics, and Materials: Principles and Applications in Sport S. Num Pages: 387 pages, 7 black & white illustrations, 3 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PSB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 248 x 165 x 30. Weight in Grams: 974.
Complex and unexplained phenomena tend to foster unorthodox perspectives. This publication is an example, as is a prior publication that emphasized the concept that intermediary metabolism might play a significant and determining role in hepatocyte proliferation and 1 tumorigenesis. Formulation of this hypothesis was based on an attempt to clarify several poorly understood phenomena; including the observations: 1) that xenobiotic peroxisome proliferators such as the fibrate hypolipidemic agents induce hepatocyte proliferation and carcinogenesis in rodents; 2) that benign and malignant liver tumors complicate the human syndrome of glycogen storage disease type I (glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency); and 3) that in this same ...
