Medicine is undergoing a quiet revolution. Molecular genetics is transforming clinical science and practice; the development of the Human Genome Project allows new methods of disease identification and of predicting disease patterns for individual patients. Knowledge of the human genome will deepen
Humoral immune responses are characterized by antigen-driven B-lymphocyte differentiation processes that occur in distinct phases. Each phase has unique cellular starting points, specialized regional microenvironments, and its own set of controls that ultimately determine the resulting cell fate. S
Embryo implantation is a complex developmental process requiring precise coordination between mother and offspring to ensure success. Implantation failure is clinically relevant to in vitro fertilization programs and to an understanding of diseases of pregnancy like preeclampsia. Basic and clinical
Wiedemann-Beckwith syndrome (WBS) is a heterogeneous overgrowth syndrome associated with malformations and an elevated risk of developing embryonal tumors. WBS is a multigenic disorder caused by dysregulation of imprinted growth regulatory genes within the 11p15 region. Elucidation of the genetic ca
Copper is essential for life processes as cofactor for many vital cuproenzymes, yet it is extremely toxic in excess. Efficient mechanisms have been developed to recruit and deliver copper to enzymes and for excretion of surplus metal. Imbalance of copper homeostasis is manifested in two human illnes
