Wenner-gren Intl Ser 71/connective Tissue Biology: Integration & Reductionism (Discontinued (WENNER-GREN INTERNATIONAL SERIES))

By R. Reed

Engineers, physiologists, cell biologists, biochemists, and molecular biologists trade perspectives on the biology of the extracellular matrix in 21 papers from a June 1996 symposium in Stockholm. They do not include detailed anatomical or morphological reviews of the matrix, which are widely available elsewhere. They do include discussions of the common origin of matrix biology and capillary physiology, hyaluronan and the flow conductivity of rat dermis, structural and functional relationships between mast cells and nerves in the gastro- intestinal mucosa, transgenic mice as models for cartilage and eye diseases, cellular interactions with the extracellular matrix during heart development, high-pressure vascular injury, microcirculation and transport phenomena in tumors, and other topics.
