Acknowledgements
This work has its origin in my Habilitationsschrift (professorial thesis) which was completed and submitted to the University Clinic Giessen in 1996. First of all I would like to thank Prof. Dr. Dr. Hans-Rainer Duncker, Institut fur Anatomie und Zellbiologie of the University Clinic Giessen, the main promotor of this work. His continuous interest and patience in counseling and his enthusiastic support both in the sciences and institutional infrastructure, combined with dedication and experience, have had great impact on the definition and realization of this thesis. His organizational, conceptual way of thinking was a breeding ground for developing my research. In addition, my heartfelt thanks go to a number of pe
