Growth Factors and Cytokines in Skeletal Muscle Development, Growth, Regeneration and Disease
This book describes the diverse roles that growth factors and cytokines play in skeletal muscle. The extracellular environment has profound effects on the biology of skeletal muscle. The soluble portion of this environment includes a rich milieu of growth factors and cytokines which have been shown...
