  • Stem Cells in Marine Organisms

    Edited by Valeria Matranga, Baruch Rinkevich ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Do real stem cells and stem cell lineages exist in lower organisms? Can stem cells from one organism parasitize the soma and/or the germ line of conspecifics? Can differentiated cells in marine organisms be re-programmed to regenerate tissues, organs and appendages through novel de-differentiation, transdifferentiation, or re-differentiation processes, leading to virtually all three germ layers, ...

  • The Comparative Embryology of Sponges

    by Alexander V. Ereskovsky ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    One of the major questions in the evolution of animals is the transition from unicellular to multicellular organization, which resulted in the emergence of Metazoa through a hypothetical Urmetazoa. The Comparative Embryology of Sponges contains abundant original and literary data on comparative embryology and morphology of the Porifera (Sponges), a group of 'lower Metazoa'. On the basis of this ... Read more

  • Diel Vertical Migration of Zooplankton in Lakes and Oceans

    causal explanations and adaptive significances

    by Joop Ringelberg ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Whatever theory may be advanced to explain diurnal migration, the underlying reactions involved must be demonstrated conc- sively in the laboratory before the explanation can be ?nally accepted George L. Clarke 1933 p. 434 In oceans and lakes, zooplankton often make diel vertical migrations (DVM), descending at dawn and coming up again in late afternoon and evening. The small animals cover ...

  • Is this Cell a Human Being?

    Exploring the Status of Embryos, Stem Cells and Human-Animal Hybrids

    Edited by Antoine Suarez, Joachim Huarte ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The central question of this book is whether or not particular cell entities of human origin ought to be considered human beings. The answer is crucial for making moral decisions for or against research and experimentation. Experts in the field discuss the production of embryonic-like pluripotent stem cells by altered nuclear transfer, parthenogenesis and reprogramming of adult somatic cells. They ... Read more

  • The Choanoflagellates

    Evolution, Biology and Ecology

    by Barry S. C. Leadbeater ...
    Choanoflagellates have three distinctive claims to fame: they are the closest, living, unicellular relatives of animals; they are a major component of aquatic microbial foodwebs; and one group is remarkable for its siliceous basket-like coverings. This landmark book offers a unique synthesis of over forty years of choanoflagellates research. Key areas are covered, from the phylogenetic evidence ... Read more

  • Cilia

    Development and Disease

    Edited by Paraskevi Goggolidou ...
    The scope of the book is to highlight the diverse roles of cilia in human development and disease. Almost all cell types form cilia and although they were first detected about 200 years ago, their significance was unclear. In the past ten years, it has become obvious that cilia have got sensory functions, as well as roles in motility and their mis-formation or the deregulation of the signaling ... Read more
