Springer Fas Signaling - Medical Intelligence Unit Book

Fas Signaling, part of the Medical Intelligence Unit series by Springer, provides a comprehensive look at the biology and signaling mechanisms of the prototypic death receptor Fas, also known as CD95 or APO-1. This academic text explores the well-known apoptosis-related functions of Fas while examining its emerging roles as a proinflammatory cytokine and an inducer of alternative cell death forms. Designed to serve as an up-to-date survey, the book addresses current open questions in the field of cell biology. It serves as an essential resource for Ph.D. and post-doctoral students who are beginning their research in this area. Whether you are studying molecular biology or immunology, this title offers the specialized knowledge needed to understand the complex biological processes driven by Fas signaling.
