Growth factors play a central role in normal cell development, but they are of special interest in abnormal, cancerous cell growth. The study of growth factor function is a key area in the search for an understanding of how the normal cell cycle goes out of control. It is perhaps one of the most rapidly changing fields of mammalian biology. This concise, up-to-date summary will be an excellent introduction on an important area of biomedical research for both students and researchers, who will find information on the mammalian cell cycle, growth factor receptors and signals, and growth factors in abnormal cells.Heath, J. K. is the author of 'Growth Factors: In Focus' with ISBN 9780199630417 and ISBN 0199630410.
