{pdf} Metamorphosis: Postembryonic Reprogramming of Gene Expression in Amphibian and Insect Cells (Cell Biology) Lawrence I. Gilbert, Jamshed R. Tata, Burr G. Atkinson

Metamorphosis addresses various facets of postembryonic development, particularly signal transduction, morphogenesis, cell-cell interactions, and programmed cell death. A key feature of the book is its exploration of the molecular mechanisms underlying these processes. Key Features* Hormonal regulation of development* The mechanisms of hormone action* The steroid/thyroid hormone receptor family* Morphogenesis and programmed cell death
