Cell-Cell Signaling in Development
Cell-Cell Signaling in Development by Thomas Kornberg, published by Elsevier Science on June 17, 2022, is a comprehensive exploration of the mechanisms that govern cell communication in the context of development. This edition spans 344 pages and is presented in English. The book delves into the diversity of animal species and the genetically-encoded signaling systems that play a crucial role in organizing cells into patterned tissues, focusing on key systems such as Wnt, Hedgehog, and Notch/Delta.
Readers will find detailed discussions on the latest research regarding signaling proteins involved in animal development, as well as insights into the processes that create and distribute these proteins. The text also examines cell-cell interactions that contribute to tissue patterning, linking these concepts to signaling in plants and highlighting emerging ideas in the field. This work serves as a valuable resource for those interested in the intersections of biology, cell biology, and molecular biology.
Official synopsis Publisher
Cell-Cell Signaling in Development, Volume 150 covers new approaches and topics surrounding the diversity of animals, with recognized species now in the millions. Remarkably, the many distinct morphologies in the metazoan biosphere are generated by only a small number of genetically-encoded signaling systems that organize cells into patterned tissues, principally, the Wnt, Hedgehog, Bone morphogenic protein, fibroblast growth factor, Notch/Delta, and planar polarity systems whose roles orchestrating morphogenesis are widespread and evolutionarily conserved. Users will find the latest information on these elegant systems, along with conceptual links to signaling in plants and ideas that are emerging from recent progress.
- Presents the newest information on signaling proteins of animal development
