	Sensing the Environment: Regulation of Local and Global Hemeostasis by the Skin Neuroendocrine System (Advances in Anatomy, Embryology and Cell Biology) by: Andrzej Slominski publisher: Springer, published: 2012-08-24 ASIN: 3642196829 EAN: 9783642196829 Described as the body’s largest organ, the skin is strategically located at the interface with the external environment where it has evolved to detect, integrate and respond to a diverse range of stressors including solar radiation. A flurry of recent findings has established the skin as an important peripheral (neuro)endocrine organ that is tightly networked to central stress axes. This capability is contributing to the maintenance of skin homeostasis. Specifically,  significant  experimental evidence has gone on to show that epidermal cells  produce and respond to classical stress neurotransmitters, neuropeptides and hormones, and that this production is stimulated by ultraviolet radiation,  biological factors and other agents.

	Topobiology: An Introduction To Molecular Embryology by: Gerald Edelman publisher: Basic Books, published: 1993-07-21 ASIN: 0465086535 EAN: 9780465086535 sales rank: 1457658 If you had a complete copy of a dinosaur’s DNA and the genetic code, you still would not be able to make a dinosaur—or even determine what one looked like. Why? How do animals get their shape and how does shape evolve? In this important book, Nobel laureate Gerald M. Edelman challenges the notion that an understanding of the genetic code and of cell differentiation is sufficient to answer these questions. Rather, he argues, a trio of related issues must also be investigated—the development of form, the evolution of form, and the morphological and functional bases of behavior. Topobiology presents an introduction to molecular embryology and describes a comprehensive hypothesis to account for the evolution and development of animal form.
	Embryology of the Eye and Its Adnexae (Developments in Ophthalmology) by: Y. Robert Barishak publisher: S Karger Pub, published: 2001-02 ASIN: 3805571798 EAN: 9783805571791 sales rank: 2175357 This monograph, unlike most previously published books on the subject, approaches the embryology of the eye and its adnexa from the perspective of gestational age, providing a unique overall view of the various structures of the eye at different stages of prenatal development. Embryogenesis, organogenesis and differentiation are three main periods that can be distinguished in the prenatal development of the human eye. The chapters in this book describe in detail the series of sequential events that occur during these periods from the fertilization of the ovum to, and after, birth. Superbly illustrated and clearly written, this text contains a wealth of information for residents in ophthalmology, neonatal and pediatric ophthalmologists, as well as for all ophthalmologists and physicians interested in developmental anomalies.
