This detailed volume provides a single, valuable reference source for
methods that definitively identify and accurately quantify apoptosis. The book
begins with common methods utilized to detect and quantitate apoptosis, as well
as apoptosis signaling pathways in toxicological and other related research. It
continues with multi-parametric and phased apoptosis assays for detecting early
and late apoptosis or distinguishing apoptosis from necrosis and autophagy.
Subsequent chapters focus on recent advances in real time and high-throughput
assays that detect and quantitate apoptosis and apoptosis signaling pathways.
Final chapters focus on recent developments in preclinical anticancer
therapeutics targeting apoptosis. Written for the Methods in Pharmacology
and Toxicology series, chapters feature step-by-step descriptions of the
methodologies, as well as expert tips and implementation advice.



Vital and authoritative, Apoptosis Methods in
Toxicology serves novice scientists as well as experts,
utilizing a range of instruments from common laboratory equipment to high-end
expensive and automated machinery capable of performing real time apoptotic
measurements.
