Cellular regulation of secretion and release /

Cellular Regulation of Secretion and Release is a compilation of papers that deals with the processes in cellular perception of stimuli and the response to them. Part I describes the receptor occupancy and regulation of stimulus through the use of video image intensification techniques. This part al...
