Autophagy : Cancer, Other Pathologies, Inflammation, Immunity, Infection, and Aging, Volume 1 /

Understanding the importance and necessity of the role of autophagy in health and disease is vital for the studies of cancer, aging, neurodegeneration, immunology, and infectious diseases. Comprehensive and forward thinking, these books offer a valuable guide to both cellular processes while incitin...
