This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the proceedings of the Fourth Annual Symposium on the Molecular Biology of Hemopoiesis, held in Reno, Nevada, November 1 and 2, 1988. Its focus on erythropoiesis represents an attempt to cover a rapidly expanding field, which has gone from elegant studies of erythro poietin physiology, to molecular biology, to clinical applications and again to physiology. The rapid development has been made possible by cloning of erythropoietin gene and the availability of recombinant hormone. The regulation of heme and its derivatives has also been aided by techniques of molecular biology; there is now a concerted effort to better understand how these enzymes contribute to proliferation, differentiation and maturation of the erythron. Globin gene derrangements have been targets of recent research in an attempt to correct the defect by genetic engineering. In the chapters of this book, several groups "expressed" their views on this subject. Finally, we analyze various regulators of erythropoiesis, both in vivo and in vitro. Dr. Richard Levere was a pioneer in many studies of heme metabolism and of erythropoiesis. He has been a generous supporter of research in this field and of our past meetings. It is only. fitting that this volume should be dedicated to him.

This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molecular biology has provided a tool with which problems in cellular differentiation can be answered. Recombinant DNA technology has been used to obtain quantities of the erythropoietic hormone, erythropoietin. The availability of the hormone has provided a much-needed impetus in learning how erythropoiesis is controlled. Knowledge of the genetic components, transcription and translation of the erythropoietin gene and finally the release of the mature hormone under various physiological conditions should be forthcoming in the near future. This volume will give the reader some indication as to the different aspects of erythropoiesis. They include the regulation of production of the hormone under normal and abnormal conditions, ontogeny and cellular interactions and the assay of the hormone itself.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recombinant DNA technology has allowed the cloning, sequencing and large-scale production of human erythropoietin, which is now used in therapy for the anaemia of renal disease. In addition, there are many ongoing clinical trials in which recombinant human erythropoietin is being investigated. The availability of the recombinant reagent has added great impetus to all areas of erythropoetin and erythropoiesis research. This multidisciplinary work brings together investigators from many fields who discuss past, present and future research in this area. The science here is primarily experimental and should be of interest to biochemists, experimental haematologists, pharmacologists, clinical haematologists and nephrologists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although much is known with respect to blood cell formation and function, many new concepts in the areas of the regulation of hematopoietic stem cell commitment and the subsequent survival, proliferation, and differentiation of progenitors have been elucidated in the last five years. Our understanding of the microenvironment where stem cells reside and commit to distinct blood types (the niche) has grown significantly in recent years. Furthermore, blood cells have been used as the key model system to study microRNA function and the role of microRNAs in the transformation of normal cells into cancer cells. The current volume Molecular Basis of Hematopoiesis, edited by Amittha Wickrema & Barbara Kee, provides the most recent developments in the area in addition to a chapter on the utilization of basic science knowledge for the treatment of blood diseases. Each chapter in this book has been written and edited by faculty in major academic and research institutions around the world, who are pushing the frontiers of research in this important area.
