Springer Cell Receptors Morphological Characterization and Pathological Aspects 1st Editon 2011 Softbound by Gerhard Seifert
An up-to-date review of the morphology and pathological aspects of cell receptors, important because new therapies for various pathological conditions (genetic diseases, endocrine disorders, cancer, etc.) could be based on receptor interference. General Biochemical and Morphological Aspects.- Historical Development of the Receptor Concept.- Classification of Cell Receptors.- Biochemical Characterization of Cellular Hormone Receptors.- Morphological Characterization of Cell Receptors.- Molecular Biology of Receptors for Neuropeptide Hormones.- Cell Surface Receptors.- Peptide Hormone Receptors.- Growth Factor Receptors.- Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptors.- Neurotransmitter Receptors in Human Brain Diseases.- Lectin Receptors.- Cytosolic/Nuclear Receptors.- Steroid Hormone Receptors.- Oncogene and Receptor Expression.- Oncogene and Receptor Expression.- Special Aspects of Tumor Pathology.- Breast Carcinoma.- Prostatic Cancer — Immunohistochemistry of Steroid Hormone Receptors.- Lineage-Specific Receptors in the Diagnosis of Malignant Lymphomas and Myelomonocytic Neoplasms.
