Neuropilin: From Nervous System to Vascular and Tumor Biology (Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology)

This volume provides an analysis on how a single molecule is able to encode a wide range of functions in various biological systems, contributing to the disappearance of frontiers in biology. Beneficial for scientists of multiple fields, interested by the consequence of sophisticated mechanisms of signal transduction, this volume is a general model for the understanding of a multifunctional factor, a model that may apply for a variety of signals during both physiological and pathological cellular behavior.
