  • SOME ASPECTS OF ONCOLOGY
    HEPPNER, G. / BITTAR, EDWARD
    The present volume is the first in the advances in oncobiology series. It is meant to be useful not only to clinical and non-clinical oncologists but also to graduate students and medical students. The individual chapters are presented as self-contained summaries of current knowledge rather than as reviews. The last chapter deals with the subject of chemotherapy. ...

  • CELLULAR ORGANELLES
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    The purpose of this volume is to provide a synopsis of present knowledge of the structure, organisation, and function of cellular organelles with an emphasis on the examination of important but unsolved problems, and the directions in which molecular and cell biology are moving. Though designed primarily to meet the needs of the first-year medical student, particularly in schoo...

  • CELLULAR ORGANELLES AND THE EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    This volume is in two parts. The first contains the remaining chapters on cellular organelles and several chapters relating to organelle disorders. An account of mitochondriopathis is given in the chapter on the mitochondrion rather than in a separate one. The subject matter of this part of the volume shows quite clearly that the interdisciplinary approach to the study of organ...

  • REPRODUCTIVE ENDOCRINOLOGY AND BIOLOGY
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    We have now reached the mid-point of our editorial task of putting together the compendium, Principles of Medical Biology, which is supposed to be composed of twenty-five modules. The present single-volume module on reproductive endocrinology and biology is in more than one respect a continuation of Module 10 (in two volumes) dealing with molecular and cellular endocrinology. I...

  • CELL CHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY: PART IV: PART IV
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    This volume is intended to complete the Cell Chemistry and physiology module. It is about how the traditional boundaries of cell chemistry and physiology are being erased by molecular biology. We do not think it necessary to elaborate on this theme, particularly since the body of core knowledge found in this volume brings us a stage closer to answering the question, "what makes...

  • MEMBRANES AND CELL SIGNALING
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    It should not come as too much of a surprise that biological membranes are considerably more complex than lipid bilayers. This has been made quite clear by the fluid-mosaic model which considers the cell membrane as a two-dimensional solution of a mosaic of integral membrane proteins and glycoproteins firmly embedded in a fluid lipid bilayer matrix. Such a model has several vir...

  • BIOLOGICAL PSYCHIATRY
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    It is now widely recognised that biological psychiatry is rapidly coming into its own. For over the last three decades dramatic advances in this young discipline have been made, all of which attest to the staying power of the experimental method. Those who made this revolution in knowledge happen are a breed of investigators availing themselves of the tools of molecular biology...

  • MICROBIOLOGY
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    There is a need in small group teaching for a readable module that provides a balanced treatment of the four main areas of medical microbiology-bacteriology, mycology, virology and parasistology. It need not be encyclopedic in scope nor didactic, but it should emphasise principles and concepts. Any existing gaps in this type of presentation are, of course, left for the student ...

  • DEVELOPMENT BIOLOGY
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    The purpose of this module is to provide a survey of the rapidly expanding field of developmental biology and to introduce it to the student in a unifying way. In medical schools where courses in biochemistry, physiology, and pharmacology are already considerably intersecting, there is not surprisingly a rising demand in modern medical education for books emphasizing the interd...

  • CELL CHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY: PART I: PART I
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    This is the first of a 4-volume module that is an introduction to the study of cell chemistry and physiology. It is not intended to be encyclopedic in nature but rather a general survey of the subject with an emphasis on those topics that are central to an understanding of cell biology and those that are certain to become of increasing importance in the teaching of modern medic...

  • CELL CHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY: PART II: PART II
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    This volume illustrates the extent to which the traditional distinction between biochemical and physiological processes is being obliterated by molecular biology. It can hardly be doubted that the revolution in cell and molecular biology is leading to core knowledge that provides an outline of the integrative and reductionist approach. We view this as the beginning of a new era...

  • MOLECULAR AND CELLULAR GENETICS
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    The tools of molecular biology have revolutionised our understanding of gene structure and function and changed the teaching of genetics in a fundamental way. The transition from classical genetics to molecular genetics was initiated by two discoveries. One was the discovery that DNA has a complementary double helix structure and the other that a universal genetic code does exi...

  • CELL CHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY: PART III: PART III
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    The first section of this volume consists of five chapters to the nature of membrane transport systems. A chapter on secondary active glucose transport has been omitted because this topic is slated to appear in the Nephrobiology module. Chapter 6 deals with oxidase control of plasma membrane proton transport, while chapter 7 addresses the question of how cell volume is regulate...

  • CAVEOLAE AND LIPID RAFTS : ROLES IN SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION & THE PATHOGENESIS OF HUMAN DISEASE: ADVANCES IN MOLECULAR AND CELL BIOLOGY
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    Caveolae (latin for little caves) are small structures found at the surface of cells. They are responsible for the regulation of important metabolic pathway. As a consequence, they may play a critical role in several human diseases such as atherosclerosis, cancer, diabetes, and muscular dystrophies. This book analyzes the role and function of caveolae in these aspects and serve...

  • THE LIVER IN BIOLOGY AND DISEASE: LIVER BIOLOGY IN DISEASE, HEPATO - BIOLOGY IN DISEASE
    BITTAR, EDWARD
    The Liver in Biology and Disease was conceived as a sequel in the series Principles of Medical Biology, whose general aim continues to be the integration of human biology and molecular cell biology into modern molecular medicine. It is a volume molded by the Information Revolution which few will deny has forced the teaching faculties in our medical schools to curtail and prune...
