Description for Plasma Membrane Redox Systems and Their Role in Biological Stress and Disease
Hardback. Provides a treatment of the involvement of plasma membrane redox reactions in the origin and development of biological stress and disease. This book contains chapters which cover the role of plasma membrane redox systems in cell defence, growth control, antioxidative defence reactions, development of tumour cells, and entry of toxins and viruses. Editor(s): Asard, Han; Berczi, Alajos; Caubergs, Roland J. (University of Antwerp, Belgium). Num Pages: 334 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MBGR; MJCL; PSF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 20. Weight in Grams: 664.
Oxidation-reduction (i.e. redox) processes at the plasma membrane of any cell have been attracting more and more attention, both in basic and in applied research, since the first workshop dealing with the plasma membrane oxidoreductases was organized in Cordoba, Spain, in 1988. This evolution is evident considering the numerous cell functions performed by plasma membrane redox systems not only in healthy cells but also in cells that escaped from the normal metabolic control (e.g. cancer cells) and cells under attack by pathogens. Plasma membrane redox processes have now been demonstrated to play an essential role in growth control and defense ... Read more

Reviews for Plasma Membrane Redox Systems and Their Role in Biological Stress and Disease
`This is an outstanding collection of reviews... I did not find a single chapter disappointing. Moreover, it was clearly edited and produced extremely efficiently... extensive referencing... I strongly recommend the book to all who seek a solid grounding in this fascinating field.' Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2:2 (2000)
