CRC Press Handbook of Growth Factors (1994): Volume 1

The Handbook of Growth Factors (1994): Volume 1 by CRC Press provides an in-depth look into the biological processes that regulate cell life cycles. This professional resource covers the general biological properties of growth factors and examines the specific receptor and postreceptor mechanisms used by these signaling agents. Readers will find a detailed evaluation of how growth factors may influence the regulation of proto-oncogene and tumor suppressor gene expression. This volume also provides a thorough discussion on the development of neoplastic processes. It serves as a foundational text for those studying endocrinology, internal medicine, and cellular biology, offering a clear perspective on the signaling agents that drive biological functions.
