Cell Death Regulation in Health and Disease - Part B

Cell Death Regulation in Health and Disease - Part B, Volume 352, the latest release in the International Review of Cell and Molecular Biology, reviews and details current advances in cell and molecular biology. Chapters in this updated release include Regulation of cell death signaling in insects, Bcl-2 family proteins, Cell death signaling in prokaryotes, Parthanatos in neurodegenerative diseases, Cell death regulation in yeast, Mutual regulation of autophagy and necroptosis, Therapeutic inhibition of cell death by autophagy induction, and Necroptosis in neurodegenerative diseases.

Provides a comprehensive collection of front-of-the line research in the field of cell death regulationAuthored by established and active cell and molecular biologists drawn from international sourcesPresents only invited review articles, covering selected topics in many different organisms and disease settings
