Synopsis

Growth factors play an important role in the regulation of proliferation and differentiation of specific cell types. This is a guide to studying growth factors, from the search for and characterization of new activities, to "in vivo" analysis and molecular biology approaches such as DNA cloning. Although cytokines is included in the list of growth factors, the book avoids protocols relating specifically to cytokines and this volume should be seen as complementary to the volume "Cytokines: A Practical Approach" in the same series.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book is a step-by-step guide to studying growth factors, from the initial search for and characterization of new activities, to sophisticated in vivo analysis and molecular biology approaches such as D.N.A. cloning. It also covers the detection and study of growth inhibitory factors. Growth Factors: A Practical Approach is an invaluable practical guide for both those entering growth factor research for the first time and more experienced researchers. As well as covering a wide variety of techniques, this book includes a valuable appendix covering all known growth factors.
