内容説明

The book contains information on the regualation of plasma proteins in health and disease. This comprehensive text describes plasma protein gene evolution, regulation by cytokines and transcription factors, expression in terms of genetic diseases, the structure - function relationships of the proteins, and their protective physiological and environmental roles. This text should be useful to geneticists, biochemists and molecular biologists concerned with plasma proteins in research and clinical settings. Current reviews of the following subjects are provided: regulatory mechanisms controlling plasma protein synthesis in the liver; genetic defects of plasma proteins in human diseases; evolution, chromosomal location, gene expression and regulation for major hepatic plasma protein; reactions of cytokines and transcription factors known to control blood levels of plasma proteins.
