It is of critical importance in development,  homeostasis, and cell population control. Research over the last  decade is now enabling scientists to comprehend how genes and the  protein products interact to control apoptosis. This has led to the  current position where researchers may be able to directly modify the  action of key proteins through gene therapy and antisense  oligonucleotides. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eApoptosis Genes\u003c\/em\u003e presents a current overview of key genes  involved in the control of apoptosis research together with thoughts  on future prospects and clinical applications. While there are several  books written on apoptosis, \u003cem\u003eApoptosis Genes\u003c\/em\u003e deals specifically  with the regulation of apoptosis. Given the increased interest in the  role of apoptosis genes in disease processes, this work will be useful  to researchers investigating cancer, autoimmune disease, viral  infection, cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative disorders, AIDS,  osteoporosis, and aging.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1999-01-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780412838606\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-5287-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 310\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312357363852,"sku":"9780412838606","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780412838606.jpg?v=1771524650","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780412838606","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
