Cellular and Developmental Biology

Interest in embryology can be outlined back to the times of Aristotle, but it was really the discovery of the microscope in the mid-seventeenth century that propelled the fields of modern cell and developmental biology. This book compiles a wide spectrum of cell and developmental biology, covering intracellular and extracellular dynamics, with sections focusing on signaling, cell adhesion and migration, cell growth and division, cell death and survival, membrane trafficking and epigenetic regulation. It also focuses on the evolution, development, growth, regeneration, and functions of the cells while tracing the disorders it may attract. It also underlines the importance of addressing cell disorders that may lead to a plethora of other chronic diseases. Additionally, the book offers information dedicated to the cutting edge of fundamental and translational research in molecular medicine and stem cell biology.
