Description
Under the capable and qualified editorial leadership of Dr. Gerald Litwack,
Vitamins and Hormones continues to publish
cutting-edge reviews of interest to endocrinologists, biochemists, nutritionists, pharmacologists, cell biologists, and molecular biologists.
First published in 1943,
Vitamins and Hormones is the longest-running serial published by Academic Press. In the early
days of the Serial, the subjects of vitamins and hormones were quite distinct. Now, new discoveries have proved that several of the vitamins
function as hormones and many of the substances inferred by the title of the Serial function in signal transduction processes. Accordingly,
the Editor-in-Chief has expanded the scope of the Serial to reflect this newer understanding of function-structure relationships in cellular
communication. The Editorial Board now reflects expertise in the field of hormone action, vitamin action, X-ray crystal structure, physiology,
and enzyme mechanisms.
Included in series
Vitamins and Hormones
Audience:
Researchers, faculty, and graduate students interested in the molecular and cellular biology of vitamins, hormones and related factors
and co-factors; libraries and laboratories at institutions with strong programs in cell biology, biochemistry, molecular biology, gene
regulation, hormone control, and signal transduction.
