Product Description: Recent advances in molecular biology have provided new dimensions in the study of the reproductive system. There has been major progress in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of hormone action in the past few' years. The symposium on "Molecular Basis of Reproductive Endocrinology" was organized to highlight new research findings on the regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis...read more

Product Description: The European Workshop on Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology of the Testis was organized for the first time at Geilo, Norway, 8-11 April 1980. Since then, these meetings have been held in Holland, France, Italy, England, Sweden/Finland (Aland), Germany, and Bel­ gium...read more

Product Description: Recent years have seen tremendous progress in the field of hormone action and consequent signal transduction. The 40th Colloquium Mosbach was devoted to the discussion of results concerning the molecular process of hormone action, especially the processes following hormone binding to the corresponding receptors...read more

Product Description: This broad-ranging volume reveals that the study of steroid hormone action has permeated many areas of biology and medicine. Focusing on major unanswered questions, it offers valuable insights regarding the hormonal regulation of gene expression...read more

Product Description: The application of recombinant DNA techniques to endocrinology is an exciting area of biomedical research. These and other new methods have made it possible to clone many endocrine genes--such as those for insulin and growth hormone--to determine their nucleatide sequences, and to study their expression both in vitro and in vivo...read more
