  • Hematopoietic Stem Cell Biology

    Edited by Motonari Kondo ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    In the summer of 1988, my developmental biology professor announced to the class that hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) had finally been purified. Somehow, I never forgot the professor’s words. When I started working in Dr. Irv Weissman’s labo- tory at Stanford as a postdoctoral fellow, I realized that the findings mentioned by the professor were from Weissman’s laboratory and had been published in ...

  • Arachidonate Remodeling and Inflammation

    Edited by Alfred N. Fonteh, Robert L. Wykle ...
    Series series Progress in Inflammation Research
    Arachidonic acid (AA) and other 20 or 22-carbon polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are precursors of lipid mediators of inflammation known as eicosanoids. These mediators are critical in disease processes and in regulating normal cell function. Remodeling is important in maintaining homeostasis and in regulating cell function by dictating how PUFAs are converted to lipid mediators of inflammation ... Read more
