Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cardiac cell biology has come of age. Recognition of activated or modified signaling molecules by specific antibodies, new selective inhibitors, and fluorescent fusion tags are but a few of the tools used to dissect signaling pathways and cross-talk mechanisms that may eventually allow rational drug design. Understanding the regulation of cardiac hypertrophy in all its complexity remains a fundamental goal of cardiac research. Since the advancement of adenovirally mediated gene transfer, transfection efficiency is no longer a limiting factor in the study of cardiomyocytes. A limiting factor in considering cell transplantion as a strategy to repair the damaged heart is cell availability at the right time. Cardiac gap junctions, intercellular communication channels that allow electrical and metabolic coupling and play an important role in arrhythmogenesis are now understood to be exquisite sensors of cardiac change. The reports in this volume incLude elegant studies that made use of cutting edge technological advances and many specialized reagents to address these issues.

Book excerpt: The most important communication mechanism between cardiac cells is electrical transmission via low resistance pathways, the so-called gap junction channels. These gap junctions play a vital role in the physiological activation pattern and in pathophysiological cardiac conditions. This book provides a comprehensive overview of what is currently known about cardiac gap junctions, a relatively young field of research. An introduction into the various aspects of activation propagation and coupling in the heart is followed by a detailed description of the structure and diversity of gap junctions, including amino acid sequences and species variability. Subsequent chapters discuss their distribution, physiology and functions, and the regulation of expression. The author then goes on to put these basic findings into a clinical context: The changes of gap junction distribution in the course of cardiac disease and their implications receive special attention. A further chapter presents pharmacological approaches to the modulation of gap junction channel conductivity and outlines possible new therapeutic strategies. The final part of the book, especially written for scientists who intend to enter the field of cardiovascular research, describes methods of investigation including double cell voltage clamp, immunohistochemistry, isolation procedures for gap junctions and dye coupling assays. Authoritative and up-to-date, this book successfully bridges the gap between basic and clinical research. It provides an excellent introduction for newcomers to the field and will also be a valuable source of information for basic researchers, cardiologists, physiologists and pharmacologists.

Book excerpt: Gap junctions are present in nearly all tissues, regardless of their embronic origin and have long been of great interest to scientists from many different disciplines. The international meeting on which this book is based brought together 157 scientists from 12 countries and almost as many scientific disciplines. The papers presented at the meeting were reviewed and updated prior to publication in this book. The seven parts of the book progress from general topics to the more specific ones (role of gap junctions in various tissues, regulation and biochemistry, and cancer).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The period between 1950 and 1980 were the golden unique insights into how pathological processes affect years of transmission electron microscopy and produced cell organization. a plethora of new information on the structure of cells This information is vital to current work in which that was coupled to and followed by biochemical and the emphasis is on integrating approaches from functional studies. TEM was king and each micrograph proteomics, molecular biology, genetics, genomics, of a new object produced new information that led to molecular imaging and physiology and pathology to novel insights on cell and tissue organization and their understand cell functions and derangements in disease. functions.

Book Synopsis Gap Junctions in Development and Disease by : Elke Winterhager
Download or read book Gap Junctions in Development and Disease written by Elke Winterhager and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-11-04 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communication between cells via intercellular channels – gap junctions – appears essential to certain developmental processes and appropriate organ function. Gap Junctions in Development and Disease aims to describe the molecular events underlying impaired development and disease. Beginning with a comprehensive review of various mouse and human genes encoding the channel-forming connexins, later chapters describe several connexin mutations associated with human diseases such as hereditary deafness and female infertility. Erroneous signaling mediated by the interaction of mutant connexins with other proteins, thought to be responsible for dysfunction of organs such as heart, muscle, brain, skin, lens, placenta, and endocrine tissue in both mice and men, is also addressed. Although the question of why some mutations in gap-junction proteins lead to specific phenotypes remains to be answered, the reviews in this book provide an intriguing insight into the future direction of this research field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers cell-cell channels at all levels of biological organization. The purpose of this book is to document that cells are not physically separated and fully autonomous units of biological life as stated by the currently valid Cell Theory. If not the cell then some lower level unit must fulfill this role. The book deals also with the identity of this elusive unit of biological life.
