  • Diverse Effects of Hypoxia on Tumor Progression

    Edited by M. Celeste Simon ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Hypoxia, defined as reduced oxygen tension, is a common physiological phenomenon in both normal embryonic development and malignancy progression. Although severe hypoxia is generally toxic for both normal tissue and tumors, neoplastic cells gradually adapt to prolonged hypoxia though additional genetic and genomic changes with a net result that hypoxia promotes tumor progression and therapeutic ...

  • Integrative Biology of Women’s Health

    Edited by Espen E. Spangenburg ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Defining and understanding cellular and molecular mechanisms that are relevant to women’s health has become a critical area of scientific pursuit. Until recently, very little effort has been place on defining or understanding critical differences between women and men that may be critical to the overall health of the woman. In 1990, the National Institutes of Health recognized this gap in ... Read more

  • A Cybernetic View of Biological Growth

    The Maia Hypothesis

    by Tony Stebbing ...
    Maia is the story of an idea, and its development into a working hypothesis, that provides a cybernetic interpretation of how growth is controlled. Growth at the lowest level is controlled by regulating the rate of growth. Access to the output of control mechanisms is provided by perturbing the growing organism, and then filtering out the consequences to growth rate. The output of the growth ... Read more

  • Deep Homology?

    Uncanny Similarities of Humans and Flies Uncovered by Evo-Devo

    by Lewis I. Held, Jr ...
    Humans and flies look nothing alike, yet their genetic circuits are remarkably similar. Here, Lewis I. Held, Jr compares the genetics and development of the two to review the evidence for deep homology, the biggest discovery from the emerging field of evolutionary developmental biology. Remnants of the operating system of our hypothetical common ancestor 600 million years ago are compared in ... Read more
