Signaling in the Heart
Signal transduction pathways are at the core of most biological processes and are critical regulators of heart physiology and pathophysiology. The heart is both a transmitter and dynamic receptor of a variety of intracellular and extracellular stimu

Preface
Signal transduction is at the core of most biological processes and represents a critical area of research. Signal transduction is extremely important not only to molecular biology research, but also to clinical medicine in general since many diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, autoimmunity, and cancer, arise from defects in signal t
