The majority of cells in our bodies must constantly receive signals that keep them alive and functioning. All organisms also have signaling systems that warn of the presence of pathogens, leading to a protective response. The key concept is that the many signaling systems of biology have very similar or related steps. The same signaling system can lead to very different responses in different cells or different organisms. Studies of the mechanisms of cell signaling are leading to new understanding of many diseases, and to new strategies for therapy. The cell is an appropriate place to start a course of biologyto understand life in a useful and meaningful way, you have to understand the cell. Cell biology is the study of cell structure and function, and it revolves around the concept that the cell is the fundamental unit of life. Focusing on the cell permits a detailed understanding of the tissues and organisms that cells compose. Some organisms have only one cell, while others are organized into cooperative groups with huge numbers of cells. On the whole, cell biology focuses on the structure and function of a cell, from the most general properties shared by all cells, to the unique, highly intricate functions particular to specialized cells. This book is fed with the information of this subject. This book will be very useful for a wide range of interested groups.
