Humana Press Inc. Apoptosis Cell Signaling And Human Diseases Molecular Mechanisms Volume 2 by Rakesh Srivastava

Apoptosis, Cell Signaling, and Human Diseases: Molecular Mechanisms, Volumes 1 and 2, present a concise synthesis of recent developments in the understanding of both cell survival and apoptotic pathways. Particular attention is given to apoptosis in human diseases, such as different forms of cancer. These comprehensive volumes integrate the most innovative and current findings. The contributors are at the forefront of scientific discovery._x000D_ _x000D_ Section I. Kinases and Phosphatases_x000D_ _x000D_ Significance of Protein Kinase A in Cancer_x000D_ Maria V.
