Metamorphosis: Postembryonic Reprogramming of Gene Expression in Amphibian and Insect Cells (Cell Biology)

Metamorphosis addresses various facets of postembryonic development, particularly signal transduction, morphogenesis, cell-cell interactions, and programmed cell death. A key feature of the book is its exploration of the molecular mechanisms underlying these processes. Key Features * Hormonal regulation of development * The mechanisms of hormone action * The steroid/thyroid hormone receptor family * Morphogenesis and programmed cell death Metamorphosis addresses various facets of postembryonic development, particularly signal transduction, morphogenesis, cell-cell interactions, and programmed cell death.

Key Features
* Hormonal regulation of development
* The mechanisms of hormone action
* The steroid/thyroid hormone receptor family
* Morphogenesis and programmed cell death Addresses various facets of postembryonic development, particularly signal transduction, morphogenesis, cell-cell interactions, and programmed cell death. This book explores the molecular mechanisms underlying these processes. It covers: hormonal regulation of development; the mechanisms of hormone action; and more. The terms larva and metamorphosis are used in different animal groups for unrelated developmental phenomena of various ontogenetic timing.
