Cell Physiology Source Book, Fifth Edition covers a broad range of topics in cell physiology. The book discusses research areas that have become active since the last edition (e. g., aquaporins, apicoplast and other organelles) and broadens its scope to include chronobiology, expansion of receptor/sensory physiology, endocrinology, and other topics such as quorum sensing and taxis. As methods or approaches on performing experiments appear to be very valuable parts of books to which readers tend to frequently refer, expansion of these types of chapters and/or appendices are included in this edition. Applicable to scientists, researchers, postdocs and graduate students across physiological, biochemical, biological and biomedical backgrounds, cell physiology is important for understanding larger organisms and potential advances in biomedicine. Contains a broad range of topics in cell physiology, thus providing a more complete picture of cellular functionsPresents a single volume source that covers cell physiology in an easily accessible formatIncludes color illustrations throughout | Cell Physiology Source Book by F.
