{"product_id":"9781483219660","title":"Recent Progress in Hormone Research: Proceedings of the 1989 Laurentian Hormone Conference","description":"Recent Progress in Hormone Research, Volume 46 provides a superior summary of the developments in the field of hormone research. The book discusses the molecular basis of androgen insensitivity; the tissue-specific expression of the growth hormone gene and its control by growth hormone factor-1; and the molecular characterization of mammalian tachykinin receptors and a possible epithelial potassium channel. The text also describes the properties of the guanylate cyclase receptor family; insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins; and growth hormone receptor and binding protein. Mutations in the insulin receptor gene in genetic forms of insulin resistance; the characteristics of the cAMP response unit; and the role and secretion of inhibin in the rat are also considered. The book further tackles the structure of the lutropin\/choriogonadotropin receptor and the gene for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2a. Endocrinologists, physiologists, and biochemists will find the text invaluable.","brand":"Elsevier Science","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47144651260144,"sku":"9781483219660","price":62.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781483219660_p0.jpg?v=1763627063","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781483219660","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
