Eicosanoids in Invertebrate Signal Transduction Systems

Mostrar otras versiones (2)

This volume generates a new paradigm for researching and understanding the biological meaning of eicosanoids. Eicosanoid is a general term for oxygenated metabolites of certain polyunsaturated fatty acids. The compounds are extremely important in human biology, in which they are well understood. The...
